Yeah, like building a new HQ for Amazon in NYC. How are those building plans coming along, jeff mr-I-do-what-I-want?

But he was not doing it. He got bludgeoned into submission to doing it company wide by The Bern.

I don't think you have been following the news. What do you think is up next? You get three guesses.

They all bowed down to your new socialist marxist overlord.

Well, I didn't think you could handle history, so I posted a more recent example for your pleasure.

What is his job? I was under the impression that a senator's job was to keep in close contact with his electors' agenda of concerns and issues at hand. I would say a shitlow minimum wage is pretty much the biggest issue at hand for his electors.
I thought he was elected to represent the people?

The sumbitch is immortal, I didn't know. I guess you won't be able to handle the next 8 years, being ruled by a socialist and marxist immortal non-practising jew who will give you good healthcare, excellent education and proper wages so you can concentrate on living.

Today I learned DiBlasio's opinion matters.

Amazon: you got a deal
Amazon: Can you also throw in a helipad kthx!
AOC: You already got 30B and you still want a free helipad? Fuck off. Get the fuck out of NY you greedy shits. GIT GIT
Amazon: oooohhhh shit I can't handle this bitch, I'm getting the fuck out of here

Like New York City really needed Amazon. Remember your own point about Amazon having made $11B last year and not paid a dime in taxes on that? Turns out the cities in which it's in don't really benefit from unpaid taxes.
Try thinking. It helps.

I agree with you, however the subject of this statement is wrong. She's not the dumbtard here. AOC is fn' brilliant.

Oh no, that was just a quick example to show you that Bernie is not a one man wrecking crew. He's more like the Avengers Assembled to make your country better

Oh I'm fine, thanks. Kind of ironic being told this by someone who idolizes Trump.
