Ocasio-Cortez deletes tweet mistakenly identifying top Democrat as GOP member
CNN:
Indeed she did mistakenly identify top Democrat as GOP member.
This loon votes in the House. Por Dios!
"Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) on Thursday apparently mistook one of the most prominent Democrats in the House as a Republican, and mocked him for taking a photo with a cardboard cutout of her in a tweet.
The freshman congresswoman shared a tweet by the Republican Party of Kentucky that featured the House Budget Committee Chairman John Yarmuth (D-KY) taking a photo next to a cardboard cutout of her.
Apparently not realizing who Yarmuth was, she mocked him by tweeting, “GOP: Let’s pose our older male members next to cardboard cutouts of young female legislators”:

She is a mere meat puppet, Earl. As everyone knows, she was recruited after her brother submitted her to a casting call for candidates to represent the Justice DEMOCRAT organization.Originally Posted by Earl

Yeah, just a thousand more and she'll catch up to Trump:
Trump sent out the controversial tweet at 12:06 a.m. EDT on May 31, and it had some people questioning exactly what it was that he meant.
“Despite the constant negative press covfefe,” Trump’s tweet said.
If you haven’t discovered yet, the “covfefe” word that Trump used in the tweet isn’t actually a word. Some thought that Trump meant to say “Despite the constant negative press coverage” but accidentally hit publish without completing his sentence and correcting the misspelling.
Within two hours, the questionably-crafted tweet had over 60,000 re-tweets and 75,000 likes on Twitter, and counting.
What’s even more astonishing to some is that the tweet hadn’t been taken down from Twitter for hours.
The incident has led to much reaction on Twitter with memes and hilarious tweets surfacing.
It should be noted, however, that Trump reportedly uses his personal Twitter account on his own — most of the time. The official presidential account is controlled by staff members.
But the use of “covfefe” isn’t the first instance where the 45th president of the U.S. has issued an official tweet with an alleged misspelling or mistake in it.
This happens so often that there’s a Twitter account that was crafted for the specific goal of correcting Trump’s spelling and grammar errors.
Here are a few of the top misspellings Trump has issued from his RealDonaldTrump Twitter account:
‘Tapp’

How low has President Obama gone to tapp my phones during the very sacred election process. This is Nixon/Watergate. Bad (or sick) guy!
One of Trump’s most controversial tweets as president was when he accused former President Barack Obama of tapping the wires on his phones at Trump Tower. Except Trump used “tapp” instead of “tap,” which isn’t a word.
Interestingly enough, though, the president never corrected the spelling in the tweet like he has to many others.
‘Honered’

It was one of Trump’s first tweets as president of the U.S. on the official account of the president. And he misspelled a common word, using “honered” instead of the correct “honored” when saying that he’s “honored to serve you, the American People, as your 45th President of the United States!”
He later issued a new tweet with the correct spelling.
‘Unpresidented’
Trump sent out a tweet in December 2016 using the word “unpresidented” when trying to bash China for commandeering a U.S. research drone.
In this instance, Trump seemed to have used the word “unprecedented” instead of “unpresidented.” He deleted the original tweet and re-issued a new one with the correct word.

This one isn’t so much a misspelling as it is a misuse. Just over one week into his presidency, Trump used Twitter to criticize the media for their alleged attacks on his administration. He wrote in the tweet: “Thr coverage about me in the @nytimes and the @washingtonpost gasbeen so false and angry that the times actually apologized to its…
Trump left the tweet up and opted not to correct it.
Judge Juan M. Merchan wrote that Trump “appears to take the position that his situation and this case are unique and that the pre-trial publicity will never subside. However, this view does not align with reality.”

A typo is not the same as not knowing a top Democrat from a Republican.

Don't you know misspelling words is grounds for impeachment?

What about not knowing the difference between Watergate and McCartyism?
Early morning Saturday President Donald Trump made several tweets that accused his predecessor of conducting a “Nixon/Watergate” wiretapping scheme on Trump Tower during the election. Trump is staying the weekend at his private Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida, and he offered no evidence of his wiretapping claims, which he called “McCarthyism!”
It’s not exactly clear what Trump is referencing—or whether the information was based on intelligence briefings from law enforcement, or just gleaned from media reports. It has been widely reported that there’s an ongoing investigation that began in 2016 into possible links between Trump’s close associates and top Russian officials, including a report issued by American intelligence agencies in January that concluded the Russian government sought to influence the election on Trump’s behalf.
Obama’s spokesman, Kevin Lewis, issued a short response to Trump’s allegations, saying "A cardinal rule of the Obama administration was that no White House official ever interfered with any independent investigation led by the Department of Justice. As part of that practice, neither President Obama nor any White House official ever ordered surveillance on any U.S. citizen. Any suggestion otherwise is simply false."
There have been reports that the FBI sought approval last summer to monitor members of the Trump team suspected of having irregular talks with the Russians. Ali Soufan, chair of the Soufan Group security firm and a former FBI agent, noted that such requests must be sanctioned by federal judges.
“The president cannot order criminal wiretaps or any other kind of wiretaps,” said Soufan. “No president can."
The process for obtaining a federal wiretap, either for domestic crimes or for foreign intelligence purposes, involves the approval and supervision of a federal judge. Those requests are made by investigators themselves, and the president is ultimately briefed on them only if Justice Department officials believe it is necessary.
“They deliberately withhold that because they don't want the president to get involved in an ongoing investigation," said Clint Watts, a fellow at the Foreign Policy Research Institute and a former FBI special agent. "They play by a really strict rulebook at DoJ."
Bruce Green, a law professor at Fordham and a former federal prosecutor said a president ordering a wiretap would be unusual, to say the least.
“It would obviously be improper for the government to seek wiretap authorization for partisan political purposes, rather than legitimate criminal investigative or national security purposes as set out in the application to the court,” said Green. “In prior administrations, if a President directed the Attorney General or another government lawyer to seek wiretap authorization for illegitimate reasons, the lawyer would have been expected to try to dissuade the President and, if the President persisted in giving this order, to refuse and/or resign.”
A judge would also likely refuse such a request. “An ethical government lawyer would be expected to disclose the President's involvement to the court, which could then be expected to deny authorization,” Green said.
If, hypothetically, a judge did approve a warrant for electronic surveillance of Trump officials, that would mean the judge was persuaded there was probable cause to believe they were going to commit a crime or were communicating with agents of a foreign power––and that the gravity of the circumstances justified approving the request, even in the face of the massive potential political fallout.

Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my "wires tapped" in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!

Of course, we all know you have to be a fucking moron to vote for a fucking moron.

I wouldn't know. But you seem to be an expert on liberals. It's almost as if you're obsessed with them. Why is that, Gomer?

Not nearly as obsessed as you are with Trump. Why is that, Nancy?
