This train of thought could go mainstream. Don’t laugh. 2 years to prepare. One election day to refute. Even if they’re put in their place both sides will claim victory. We need more crying on their side and Trump is the only one who can do it.

And let’s not forget our economic multipliers.
I don’t know the details of the math, but, creating 25,000 new jobs at Amazon in New York, would have led to the creation of thousands of new jobs in service businesses.
Economics major Ocasio-Cortez, again shows her ignorance of economics, when she said that now that Amazon won’t be getting $3 billion in tax abatements, now we can use that money to rebuild the subway, etc. Paraphrasing what she said.
She clearly doesn’t understand that the tax abatements are not sitting in the bank, waiting to be spent on rebuilding the subway, if only we don’t give the benefit to Amazon.
Then again, for having an econ. degree, she doesn’t even know how the unemployment rate is calculated. So there you go.

I will argue that she is the best thing for our side since donald trump
She is garnering maximum media coverage as she divides the democrat party

AOC’’s main objecton to Amazon’s deal with New York was the the 3 billion dollars in promised tax-cuts could have been put to other uses.
This reveals a great deal about the way socialists think. A tax cut isn’t a corporation’s money that it gets to keep, it’s the government’s money that has been withheld from its rightful owner.
Remember when Bernie Sanders accused Republicans of “looting the treasury” with their tax cuts? It’s not your money folks, it’s the governments and maybe they’ll let you keep some.
I look forward to hearing about what Alexendria does with that 3 billion dollars she retrieved from those greedy Amazon folks.
