Monday

In New York? It was a $3.5 BILLION deal. And Amazon promised to create 25,000 jobs.

And Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called, “Bullshit!!!”
- And the “deal” never materialized.
- The jobs Amazon promised in Arlington Virginia - still waiting
- And now this….

A lot of in-office DEMOCRATS owe her a big apology.
