Let’s set this up properly. Tim Pool, the reporter in the video below, is not a fan of President Trump. In fact, he’s a progressive on most issues. He does not like Republicans, and he has repeatedly stated that he will never vote for Donald Trump.
It’s important to understand this context. The things Tim Pool does and says do not stem from a bias in favor of the right. It makes the things Pool has to say all the more delicious.
So, when he condemns Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for lying about Amazon jobs, you know it’s a genuine complaint against the Congresswoman. Not because he has a disdain for her like someone from the right might have. It’s because she’s lying about Amazon jobs.
You might remember that New York was selected to be the location of a new Amazon headquarters. It was expected to bring in over 25,000 jobs, with a median six-figure income for those jobs. That’s huge for any economy.
AOC led the charge of progressives who fought to keep that headquarters from being built. She cost her constituents tens of thousands of jobs. Not to mention the down trick effect those jobs would have. People who earn more, spend more…they go out to eat at local restaurants, they buy homes helping the tax base and local schools, they use local businesses, etc.
Now, she’s trying to claim victory because Amazon is building a small office in the district next to hers. It’s a sham, and it’s a sham she’s pushing while President Trump just scored another huge jobs win.
There’s a lot to cover, but Tim Pool is thorough. He’ll show you exactly how dishonest AOC is being, and he’ll fully admit how much President Trump is winning. When a progressive can say these things, you know it’s bad news for the left. Take a look.
