I PRAY that a reporter asks Trump to DEFINE "Communism". I don't get why they haven't done this yet. The PRESIDENT is using big, scary words he doesn't understand💀.

I feel like this could be a friendlier exchange than expected. Trump is very easily wooed by people he perceives as popular.

Trump will give NYC billions after Zohran gives him a gold-painted Phantom of the Opera mask.

If Zohran and AOC think Chi is too new to the DSA, or they think he doesn't have a chance against Jeffries, they should just come out and say that. I get that it might offend him and damage their relationship, but leaving so much room for speculation as to why they discouraged Chi is just not a good look.
