Root cause? No.

Dude no offense your being disingenuous and a douchebag. The original OP was stupid for posting this here, but the fact that you can’t see that Trump is trying to create a fissure in the Democratic Party between the left ‘Squad’ , Moderates, and the Centrist shows your level of naivety. The danger here is that Trumps…

It’s amazing how moronic some of the responses to you are. Did everyone forget that Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer both spent a significant portion of their speaking time at AIPAC congratulating themselves on slandering Ilhan Omar as an anti-semite.

She has been an enabler but to act like she was any sort of root cause of this is absurd. 

Chakrabarti’s tweet is weeks old. The national coverage is pretty clearly a direct result of Pelosi deciding to blab to Maureen fucking Dowd about the vote.

Exactly. The fire department didn't cause the fire so they also shouldn't be blamed for sitting around twiddling their thumbs as the place burns down. 

At the very least, this has helped to put to bed the idea that centrists actually gave a shit about women and POC by supporting Hillary back in 2016. All it takes is some mild criticism, rooted in the obvious fact that funding concentration camps is, you know, bad), for all the centrist libs to basically treat Omar…

The Admiral is just playing dumb

Because funding concentration camps is in fact racist, or at the least racist-enabling.

She’s not responsible for his actions, no, but she has enabled them, in this instance, and with funding concentration camps and white supremacy, and in fundamentally misjudging the nature of Trumpism, to be more impactful.

She sure ain’t been much fucking help on any of it. She could at least have the decency to not further “other” Congresswoman Omar with comments about how she has no real constituency and like 4 voters that like her. I’d take Omar and her courage over Pelosi any day of the week.

The Democrats have been playing this game for a long time. Treating the left as “kooky”, “crazy”, “out there”, “have their public whatever” (funny you’ve never seen Pelosi refer to Joe Manchin’s “public whatever”). As the saying goes, play stupid games win stupid prizes

I don’t think anyone’s actually saying that. I’m not. But she needs to be more fucking mindful of his danger. She acts like were in normal times and we are definitely not.

Because we have no say what shitgibbon does but our own are supposed to have our backs. Vichy Khaleesi only cares about her mega donors and conservative* voter backlash.

Actually it started when Vichy Khaleesi continuously diminished AOC and the left in interview after interview, and then founded the concentration camps without a fight, but not before giving up on holding occupant actually accountable by starting impeachment hearings after 944946th time he and his regime obstructed…

The resentful racist white person has become America’s worst nightmare. This kind of behavior from white people is why they deserve to become a minority in America. Get a taste of your own medicine. No one has sympathy for a racist.

Save the pearl clutching for some other time, pal. 

Actually it started when AOC’s chief of staff called a bunch of fellow Democrats racists for voting for the bill to fund the detention centers concentration camps

This. Let’s absolutely not forget this. Let’s absolutely not let other Dems try to make us forget that. I’m not saying she wanted this outcome, but she damned sure helped enable it, and she should own that.
