I’ve never been to Boston.
Been to New York a few times and loved the place.

I actually thought that about LA.

When compared, New York is much better. When compared to Boston, New York is a dump. Overall, I'm not that into cities anyway. People make me nervous, and I always feel like I'm on high alert in cities.

I think it's a public attention fart from Trump to distract the attention of the public from something else; also to persuade racists and white-extremists just like he did in the previous elections.
TBH, there are many files which are enough to bring his ass down for good right now especially when it comes to his disastrous foreign policy that destroyed whole countries like Yemen.

I'm a little weak in geography, but aren't Puerto Rico and the Bronx both parts of the United States? And isn't the national government of the US in some measure responsible for these places? And aren't 'The Squad' all part of the national government?
So, it seems like these four women are exactly where they need to be.
As far as the race issue goes, it's pretty telling that Trump didn't tell Bernie Sanders to go back where he came from.

No. He said "back to the countries you came from." English comprehension, Drich.
Are you going to address that you called one of the best and brightest cities in the U.S. a shithole?

https://www.towncharts.com/Massachusetts...-data.html
https://boston.cbslocal.com/2018/05/08/b...achusetts/
I don't know what dump you're from, but Boston, being progressive, is only getting better. have you been to boston?
Awesome place to live if you can afford to stay in the upper class part of town, but dont wander city center after dark, here's a map that shows the consentration of crime and dark blue is very bad...
https://www.neighborhoodscout.com/ma/boston/crime
Lots of dark blue on that map.
Again great place if you have money but not a place for the working poor. You may not see this as a problem but I do. why? because the policies of the squad is going to make everyone apart of the working poor. and we see in their best city how the working poor are treated.
Now let talk about the other 3 cities the other three member of the squad are from are you saying none of them need to be fixed?
Also how is telling someone if you do not like it here go back where you came from racist?
My mother has told her sister who complains about everything the same. We've also told her parents the same ( we do not follow korean rules and traditions here and if you want to live that way go home) After looking into it this was a common phrase in the 1800 often times between established americans and white immigrints who do not like to break from tradition of the home land.
To say this is racists is to assume the reason we want them to leave is because they are not white. That is telling on yourself, because we are pointing to the policies that we know will fail and bring down this country's economy as well! The fact that trump is telling them go home and prefect this methodology is him proving he is speaking of their political decent and un american attitudes. which again is no different than my mother telling hers to go home if she can't live by america's rules.

Boru and puerto rico is not a state but a territory who self governs. (as a result the are corrupt as all get out) they are allowed to do as they will but can not vote nor collect any benefits. they are under the protection of the US. They where given 92 billion after the lat hurricane and it been several years and they still haven't recovered. the reason for the revolt is the politicians treated that aid money as their own money, and the people suffer for it. now they are out of that 92 billion and demand more from the us.
The bronx is a burrow of NYC which AOC is a duly elected official who is representing the city in congress on capitol hill. So the idea if FIX THE BRONX before you try and fix the rest of the USA with the same type of corruption that peutro rico in imploding over right now!

Of course, remember, those policies they’re pushing, by and large, they’re not based around Puerto Rican, Somali, or Palestinian traditions. If anything, their agenda is working from policies tried, tested, and mostly true in Europe. So, forgive me if I don’t see the connection between your Korean aunt and grandparents who aren’t really assimilating into American life, and these Americans who want to change their country using ideologies that are, by and large, diametrically opposed to the ones their parents lived under and left.

You're looking at it wrong. Yes, cities have crime. Stop the fucking presses. How does Boston stack up? Pretty well. https://realestate.usnews.com/places/mas...ston/crime
Quote:Again great place if you have money but not a place for the working poor.
As someone who came up in a working poor Bostonian family, I can disagree with much more authority than you can spout this nonsense. It's an amazing place for exactly those people because we have social programs to help.
Quote:Now let talk about the other 3 cities the other three member of the squad are from are you saying none of them need to be fixed?
I definitely didn't say that, so I don't know what you're going on about.
Quote:Also how is telling someone if you do not like it here go back where you came from racist?
Yes, if you're telling ethnic Americans to go back to other countries when the majority of them were born here to parents who were born here. Yeah, that's racist.
Quote:My mother has told her sister who complains about everything the same.
Your mother shouldn't have said things like that, as the real answer is to fix things that don't work, not just blindly accept them out of patriotism.
