I think its (Trumps proposed border wall) a moral abomination I think its like the Berlin Wall. I think its like any other wall designed to separate human beings and block out people who are running away from the humanitarian disasters. I just think its wrong. (Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Feb, 20.)
Could the ironies be any richer? Could AOCs powers of reasoning be showcased any more starkly? To wit:
The Berlin Wall (which even die-hard leftists like AOC seem to recognize as a moral abomination) was designed to keep desperate suffering people from escaping en masse from what Ocasio-Coretz and Bernie Sanders prescribe to make people happy.
Trumps (proposed) border wall is designed to keep people who would elect people like Ocasio-Cortez and Sanders to afflict us with their socio-economic prescriptions from becoming future U.S. voters.
Given the above, can you imagine a worthier project than the border wall?

The Berlin wall was built by Bernie’s beloved Soviet Union, who were socialists, like AOC. Is she saying socialism is bad?
The Berlin Wall committed murder?
AOC is about to dethrone Nancy and take control of the Demonut Socialist Party
She is right. The wall will be built, concertina wire will be strung, and guard towers will be erected every quarter mile with machine gun turrets and snipers to stop people from heading south. Actually, when their fraud machine finally wins total power, they will then be greatful for the wall
Hitler never had a “Berlin Wall”. The Berlin wall was built by Soviet-controlled East Germans over 15 years after Hitler’s death.
That’s the joke.
That’s all right. I associate Cortez with Maduro and Chavez.
The East German border guards at the Wall who shot people trying to escape committed murder.
Who was it who said, “Bernie Sanders went to the Soviet Union for his honeymoon, and never came back.”?
I guess the historically illiterate AOC doesn’t realize the Berlin Wall was made to keep people in, not out. There’s a difference.
One was built to keep people in and the other is built to keep people out. Big ass difference.
Trying to reason with this dame is like talking to a wall...
A wall to keep people in is a prison. A wall to keep them out is what every home has. We’ve been building them for thousands of years. They’re what keep civilization together.
Two walls would do a better job of stopping the invasion build them stop the crimes.
By the way, how well did it work on separating people.
Ask AOC why she supports Maduro walling off aid supplies to the Venezuelan people.
