So true.

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) addressed racism in the administration policies of President Donald Trump in a series of Twitter posts that quickly garnered attention online.

Many have stated any racist rhetoric by the President is a distraction to be ignored. AOC pointed out it is a distraction, but countering racism will never be unimportant.


In response to outcry over Vice President Mike Pence adding travel time and costs to his Ireland visit by staying at a Trump owned property, the freshman Congresswoman first posted:

She added:

Representative Ocasio-Cortez is not the first or the only person to condemn the Trump family's profiting off the presidency.

The President has been referred to as Don the Con and his entire family, including in-laws, called grifters.

While some pointed to Trump backer and enablers in Congress as just as culpable.

People wondered if any administration had been as corrupt.

People highlighted the new normal of working for or gaining a meeting with the current POTUS.

As AOC is a constant target of President Trump's Twitter tirades, it is difficult to say if he has seen or responded to her tweets.

The 2020 presidential election is 425 days away.

MAGA Influencer Charlie Kirk Called Out After Blaming DEI For High Death Toll In Texas Flooding Disaster

Turning Point USA founder and MAGA influencer Charlie Kirk was harshly criticized after he claimed the death toll in the flash floods that have devastated central Texas "would not have been as high if it wasn't for DEI," ridiculously suggesting that principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion were responsible.
