What does she mean “us”. She’s still walking around dividing the country.
“What does she mean “us”. She’s still walking around dividing the country.”
“Us” for Maxine isn’t the community she represents in Congress.. She chooses not to live in that community. So if we had real journalists one might question her on the meaning of “us”.
Maxine is a politician. How many politicians are being killed by police each year?
Maxine has a home in a neighborhood in California. How many of her immediate neighbors are killed by the police each year?
How many people in Maxine’s immediate family have been killed by police in her lifetime?
How many people does Maxine know personally who have been killed by the police who were unarmed and not involved in criminal activity at the moment of the killing?
So who does Maxine consider to be “us” and if those people are not family, neighbors, coworkers, or other people she knows personally, can they really be “us” to Maxine?
The reality is Maxine and the people she directly associates with have a greater chance of dying in a meteor strike than being shot down in cold blood by a police officer.
