    I don’t get why people support AOC, as far as I can tell after she blatantly ignored New Yorkers who are fed up with the current migrant crisis. She’s not open for debate, she’s just pushing her own agenda.

        In attributing the forthcoming migrant crisis solely to Republicans stance on climate change, you’re oversimplifying a complex issue. While climate change is indeed a pressing concern that could exacerbate migration patterns, it’s not the only factor. My initial point was that AOC appears to be ignoring the concerns of her constituents on the current migrant issue, which is separate from future crises caused by climate change. It is crucial to address the problems of today while also preparing for those of tomorrow. To do so, our representatives should be open to debate and multiple viewpoints, not solely focused on pushing their own agendas.

      Isn’t it strange that they keep re-electing her? Could it be that… her agenda is their agenda? That “New Yorkers who are fed up with the current migrant crisis” aren’t the majority?

          You obviously have spoken with the majority of citizens and know their opinions? If only there was some way for citizens to choose who represents them… some way for all citizens to decide if the “agenda” of their representative conforms to their own…

      So she ignored racists, doesn’t sound like a bad thing for her to do.
