And that’s the crux of the debate, and mind boggling why Dems don’t use it more often. What AOC needs to do now is put the ball in repubs’ court.

The hypocrisy is nothing short of breathtaking. It never lets up. Here we have Donald “I won’t have time for golfing” Trump who is a (alleged) billionaire from New York, calling AoC (who was tending bar and waiting tables not two years ago) a... “coastal elite”?

Franz Kafka’s The Metamorphosis, where protagonist Gregor Sansa is transformed into a bug, is often considered to have emerged from Kafka’s severe self-esteem issues.
