AOC: I understand that Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America

Rep. @AOC: I understand that Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, and I do not. That is a fundamental difference between Vance and I. I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street.

Yes Mr. Vance Trump is America’s Hitler. Trump’s hate, constant lies.and cruelty are who he is and who he always has been. Apparently Mr. Vance made a choice embrace pure Fascism. You know better go ahead and embrace cold blooded murder on the streets.

And if that ass JD Vance thinks he's going to run for President he needs to be confronted with this every single day of his campaign.

He used to be considered fairly reasonable, but he has followed Trump down the chute to utter lies and corruption. He’s more personable than Vance, has a better resume, and obviously is willing to be a bully in chief. Vance has no charisma, looks always looks like he’s been on a threw-day bender, and is an opportunist whose ambition outweighs any morals he might claim to have.

As a vet who has been to those type of countries, I abhor the thought of where our country is today. To think that a agency of the people feels that they alone hold all rights above others, no matter status, is both heartbreaking and astounding.

Put her out there everywhere, all the time, and retire the dinosaurs who run and hide from tough questions. If they don't want to fight like this, they need to get the hell out of the way.

Would Vance still feel the shooting of a young mother of three was justified if it were the mother of his three kids?

so that he could move on to marry the widow of Charlie Kirk....

The far right would probably be orgasmic over such a union,
while the rest of us would feel revulsion....
