In reply to the discussion: House Democrat Urges MAGA To 'Imagine Who Gets Killed' In Deadly Strikes If AOC Was President [View all]0rganism

She is already their "boogie woman" and a democrat has given them a sound bite to use against her.

I do not think he was saying that AOC would kill anyone extra-judiciously...

The amount of generous analysis you just posted indicates just how lame Rep. Himes' remarks were.
