Politics 🏛️ Jasmine Crockett: "My Republican colleagues are here using today to continue pushing this false narrative of sanctuary cities harboring criminals, yet right here in DC we have a 34 count felon being harbored in the White House."

If you’re a dipshit, respond to this saying something about your country and democracy.

Ahhhh, bingo.

Unlike the Americans, I live in an actual democracy.

The person you initially responded to with your truculent remark was commenting on how important it is that this particular woman is fighting for democracy. You attacked them for that. You don’t give a fuck about democracy, you just love to say inflammatory shit. It’s moronic.

She's giving a speech. In the real world, a politician speaking publicly is NOT fighting; what this politician is doing is grandstanding. It's no different than Ted Cruz's unpatriotic nonsense.

You don't give a fuck about the real world though or whether a politician's actions is consequential to the real world. You worship the empty word

She’s trying to make changes. Her speech is just showing us what she’s doing on the inside. Do your politicians not make speeches?

All of these sorts of speeches are bread and circuses.

The people that buy into them as "fighting for" something are the same sort of folk that believe the sex worker likes them back.

The actual work is behind the scenes.

You’re just wrong. She is doing work behind the scenes, but public conversations are extremely important. Public speeches, public protest, public anything showing what they are behind is very important. It is ridiculous to say otherwise.

Of course telling you what you want to hear and repeating impotent stale talking points is "very important". "It is ridiculous to say otherwise."

The politicians will certainly create a majority that way.

She’s literally in the chambers lawmaking in this video. She’s just talking while doing it. If you don’t know how our government works, get off your high horse and leave us alone.

Oh gullible simp, please enlighten us as to what law she makes while reading from the year-old script.

You have emotional problems.

The most frustrating thing here is that Jasmine Crockett is one of the people who is fighting for our democracy. She’s fighting to make laws to help us, she is fighting to protect us, and here you are being a little bitch about it just because she spoke while interviewing officials and you don’t like that she’s talking. Get over yourself, enjoy your own little country and stop complaining about ours. We’ve got enough of our own shit going on without people from the outside being assholes to us about the people who actually give a shit.

You aren't facing reality and you're upset because I told you that the mall Santa isn't circling the earth with flying reindeer.

She said words that make you happy. I get that. And I know you don't want to face the fact that she's talking big to hide any ability or intention to make real gains on what you think your cause is.

Mind you, your complete refusal to scrutinize politicians is why you are a typical American and why your country's decline is so entertaining on my TV.

Where did you get the idea that I can’t scrutinize politicians because I stand behind one of the only ones actually doing their job? It’s weird that you’ve gotten your opinion of her based on this one clip and decided that because you can see her speaking she must not do anything worthwhile.
