Clueless Andrea Mitchell Claims Left-Wing ‘Squad’ Not Socialist
By Kyle Drennen | July 18, 2019 2:08 PM EDT
During her noon ET hour show on Thursday, MSNBC anchor Andrea Mitchell rushed to the defense of the far-left “squad†members of Congress – Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, and Ayanna Pressley – by falsely claiming that “none of these members of Congress are socialists.†In reality, two of them are members of Democratic Socialists of America while all of them have advocated policies that fit the very definition of socialism.
In the midst of a lengthy discussion denouncing President Trump for his recent controversial attacks on the four Democrats, Mitchell took a few moments to provide a fake fact-check: “Now, first of all, none of these members of Congress are socialists, but that is the way the Republican leadership wants to frame this election face-off.†The host fraudulently added: “And there’s not a single member of these Congress – congressional representatives who are avowed socialists. So I don’t know where that is coming from other than opposition research.â€

They aren't socialists, they're communists. ****slapping

Go on any public forum and just try to get any libs on the forum to admit that anything The Squalids have ever said or done is in any way anti-American or socialist. You can't.
No matter how much factual info you throw at them, they refuse to accept the obvious. They've got their mantra about racist-white supremacist-hater Trump that they've practiced, and they won't budge.
Quote them Omar's or Tlaib's anti-Semitic statements, and they either ignore them or outright deny they're anti-Semitic.
The only conclusion is that they're so brainwashed they can't be reached, or they identify with the Squalids and agree with their words and actions.

Funny. AOC, one of the big names in The Squad, explicitly ran as a socialist. So at least one of the squad is admittedly one.

Andrea Mitchell is not clueless.
She is simply lying.

They're likely paid pros or dedicated volunteers that the Left puts on forums to sway opinion.

You got that right. As a wife of a former fed chairman, she certainly knows what socialism is.

That's what I don't get...AOC admitted it. Crazy.

Well, the Queen has spoken. Prostate yourselves peons, and obey the word of the Holy Oracle.

I choose Occam's Razor....just clueless, ignorant libs who aren't intelligent enough to see the obvious.
