    MSNBC’s Chuck Todd Breaks With Media And Goes After AOC For “Concentration Camp” Comments, She Doesn’t Take It Well

    He dared step outside the "defend her" narrative, now some are calling for him to resign for daring to challenge her.

    In all of this that many defend her just shows the absolute ignorance ad to history and what is really happening.
    Tony Katz (like him or not) nailed it today. They hate Trump more than they want the truth. Hate. Pure and simple. TDS is a real thing.

    Let them keep doing that.
    Many people see through that.
    It will keep playing against the Democrats.


    Or, maybe I'm completely wrong.

    Act there are enough people out there with TDS to make it rough. They are still Pi$$ed off about Billery loosing. And she will not stop spewing crap either.

    It is amazing to me that a congress person from an insignificant district is world renowned as one of the dumbest people on the planet.

    [FONT=&quot]With this letter, I am formally inviting [/FONT]@AOC[FONT=&quot] to come to Poland,where Adolf Hitler set up the worst chain of concentration camps the world has ever seen, so that she may see that scoring political points with enflamed rhetoric is unacceptable in our contemporary Western societies [/FONT]pic.twitter.com/ivOTfmiCfo

    You know, while AOC is a complete moron, even a stopped clock is right twice a day. Those immigration detention facilities are in fact concentration camps. The same type of camps used by the British in the Boer War, and that America has used multiple times in our history, from interning Native Americans to interning Japanese Americans during World War II (which was ordered by the socialist hero, FDR), to the Cuban "refugee camps" in southern Florida in 1980. It's also been used by many other countries all over the world, and still is.

    The conditions in these camps are deplorable and frankly, we should be embarrassed as Americans that our government is doing this. Regardless of how you feel about these people and what you think should be done with them (let them in or send them home), we should be treating them much better. Not because we approve of their actions, but because we, as Americans, are supposed to be better than this.

    Anyway, where I think everyone is getting wrapped around the axle is that they conflate someone using the term concentration camp with the Nazi death camps. While the death camps were indeed concentrations camps, not all concentration camps are death camps (not that they are ever a happy or fun place to be and are usually full of complete human misery and mistreatment).

    Now, honestly, I'm not sure I credit AOC with having enough gray matter to have made that distinction in her initial comments, but she at least has someone smart enough on her staff to have her issue a statement in rebuttal.

    con·cen·tra·tion camp

    /ˌkänsənˈtrāSHən ˈˌkamp/

    noun

    1.a place where large numbers of people, especially political prisoners or members of persecuted minorities, are deliberately imprisoned in a relatively small area with inadequate facilities, sometimes to provide forced labor or to await mass execution. The term is most strongly associated with the several hundred camps established by the Nazis in Germany and occupied Europe in 1933–45, among the most infamous being Dachau, Belsen, and Auschwitz.

    One might argue they are not being used as forced labor, or being executed.

    Being interred to a camp is just that. You are being held. The reasons may vary widely but they are still being held. I am not associating this with a concentration camp.
    The conditions are directly in line with the fact we are being overwhelmed at the border. The lure of the free **** and possibly a better life is very strong and I understand that. Somebody is inciting all of this.

    I would welcome any rational answers to this problem and yes, it is a magnitude to being a problem.

    To clarify, I do not think people awaiting a decision should be unnecessarily put in bad conditions.

    But, if an invading horde comes to my house, I might have a hard time housing and feeding them.
