Ocasio-Cortez Suggests Illegal Immigrants ‘More American’ Than Trump Supporters
Breitbart ^ | 1-9-2019 | Joshua Caplan

Posted on 01/09/2019 5:46:13 PM PST by tcrlaf

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) responded to President Donald Trump’s Oval Office address Tuesday evening, claiming illegal immigrants “act more American” than proponents of strong border security.

In an interview with MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow, Ocasio-Cortez accused President Trump of holding the paychecks of furloughed government workers “hostage” to build a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border, a proposal the self-avowed Democrat-socialist described as a “campaign fantasy.”

“In the actual address, there was falsehood after falsehood and we have to make sure that we get our facts straight. Everyday immigrants commit crimes at a far lower rate than native-born Americans,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “And not only that but the women and children on that border that are trying to seek refuge and seek opportunity in the United States of America with nothing but the shirt on their backs are acting more American than any person who seeks to keep them out ever will be.”

She’s saying things that are standard for the left and even the cheap labor “right.” She might be a National Review reader or contributor.

Standard communist talking point. Illegal immigrants commit crimes at a much higher rate than native-born Americans. Not to mention that they are committing a crime by being here illegally in the first place.

Hilarious

The non-American inverts reality

In her pea brain, the Constitution was apparently translated from its native Spanish

Face facts, OC girl! YOU are the alien

Lock this bitch in a room with a dozen tattooed faced MS-13 members.

If she survives the experience, ask this loon again how she feels about open borders.

Give Davie Piglet Hogwash the same treatment.

I’m starting to wonder if she is actually working for Trump. The Dems. have no idea what a disaster they have on their hands.

Alexandria could give them the high priced designer shirt off her back, but she won’t. Just like Chuck and Nancy could put up a family or two in their guest rooms, but they won’t.

Ask this stupid bitch how many lives lost at the border are acceptable.

After she screeches “NONE”, ask her how many American lives lost at the hands of illegal immigrants are permissible.

Even if it’s true that illegals’ crime rate is lower than that of the native born, so what? Any crime they commit is above and beyond what we’d have if they weren’t here.

These “more American” criminals need to take their “spark of humanity” and emigrate back to their American homes - in South America and in Central America. There is no reason they should have to put up with Trump supporters. Perhaps they will even take Ocasio-Cortez with them.
