The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Yep, she walked all over Nancy and showed her who is boss.

True - but then Speaker Pelosi nicely put AOC in her place and AOC kept a bit quiet, behaved better, and realized she needs to wait her turn.

She also started to play a tad nicer with America's Israeli masters.

Whether I agree with either of those moves is immaterial.

But I salute - skill - and ability to accept certain realities.

Not to mention she's backed off pronoun stuff to an extent.


On the FlipSide....

The other side is hell bent on screwing with ACA premium prices, Social Security, all sorts of fun stuff.

AOC represents the MAGA of the Left and she is smart and skilled.

"She'll never win" - yep, just like everyone said about Trump in 2012 and beyond......

Don't underestimate AOC.....
