No, Ocasio-Cortez didn't call Americans garbage, as Donald Trump claims

No, Ocasio-Cortez didn't call Americans garbage

Trump asserted that Ocasio-Cortez called the country and its people "garbage."

In context, she was talking about standing up for working men and women, specifically Trump voters. At no point did she call them or the United States "garbage." She used the word to describe a situation that left working people behind.

Trump’s line turns her words upside down. We rate this claim False.

Lol Politifact. Dude just quote WaPo instead, it's all the same entity.

How about this one : "The United States, under Donald Trump, has truly become the ‘gang that couldn't shoot straight.’ Everything he touches turns to garbage!"

Could you point out where the article was wrong?
tulc(is just curious)

The site gave proof of what she actually said. You don't like when's facts are presented which prove Trump wrong?

I understand questioning a rating source or a news source that doesn't align with your political views. However, if you're going to question a source like that, then your rebuttal would be more convincing if you provided some sufficient evidence to demonstrate how the source can't be trusted. For example, I wouldn't trust Fox News to tell me what color the sky is outside, but I don't just say that and leave it there. I have provided sufficient evidence to demonstrate why I think the National Enquirer is more accurate in its reporting than Fox is. I made it a habit to fact check the news I read because of Fox.

Uh, Politifact is owned by the Tampa Bay Times, which is a separate entity from the Washington Post.

Americans or America?

Be specific because she did do it...

If you have proof then provide it. I've read what she said about garbage and she wasn't calling America or Americans garbage. Even Fox News' Chris Wallace said that that was false.

...link? Always nice to provide proof to support a claim. Like the article in the OP did.
tulc(just a thought)

Apparently the best that the left has to offer.

How sad.

So...no you can't supply a link that shows where the OP is wrong? Instead it's the usual ad hominem fallacy that seems to be the only response these days for some of President Trump's supporters. And yes it is pretty sad how little President Trump gives his supporters to work with.
tulc(always knew a d-list reality show star was going to be bad at being President of the U.S.)

Up top the mountain we do not do the wave thing but you can wave Trump right back in for 4 more years.

...or not. I'm prepared for either eventuality. I can do four more years of pointing out everything he's doing wrong just as much as watching the Republican Party pretend they never supported/knew him once he's out of office.
tulc(not a problem)

Apparently Donald Trump is the best the right has to offer. It is honestly sad considering how the reputation of the voting base who support him has been severely damaged. It isn't liberals who are being accused of hypocrisy for supporting him after spending years condemning Bill Clinton for his adulterous womanizing and sexual scandals. It isn't liberals who are being accused of selling their souls to support him or accused of compromising their convictions and abandoning their principles.

It is the conservatives who still support and defend Trump despite the fact he bragged he could grab a woman by her.... and kiss her because he's a celebrity after they spent years condemning Bill Clinton for his sexual deviant behavior toward women. It is the conservatives who still support Trump despite the fact he had an affair with a inappropriate content star and later paid her off to silence her after they spent years condemning Bill Clinton for committing adultery against his wife. It is these same conservatives who are now being accused of hypocrisy and are being accused of compromising their convictions.

It hasn't been liberals who have been target of scathing articles like (1) Evangelical convictions for sell, (2) the great Evangelical compromise, (3) Evangelicals abandon their principles, and several other articles with titles that aren't allowed to be posted because of their scathing titles.

How has President Trump changed white Christians' views of 'morality'?

How could Christians support Trump’s lies? It depends on what you mean by ‘truth.’

Evangelicals Who Denounced Bill Clinton Affair, Silent On Donald Trump And Stormy Daniels​

As we can all plainly see from the examples that have been given, the Republican Party can never again honestly claim to be the political party of morality and traditional family values because of Donald Trump and because of all the conservatives who still faithfully support him and defend him, despite everything vile and immoral he has ever said and done since his presidential campaign.

 

[Mountainmanbob]

Sad to see all of the Cortez supporters.

Have Mercy on The United States.

[grasping the after wind]

Politifact is spinning for the left as usual but Trump was still exaggerating and mischaracterizing as usual.

 

[Sistrin]

Even Fox News' Chris Wallace said that that was false.

Oh, well, lets all drop to our knees and grovel because Chris Wallace said something.
