She was not born in Puerto Rico, she was born in New York - which makes her an American. My family immigrated from Ireland - but I'm not Irish, I'm an American.

Her family moved to Yorktown when she was 5. It's unlikely that she has any childhood memories of the Bronx.

We were Americans when you were still English chattle.

In fact, Latin America was America before the British colonies (here, not your home) were.

Yet folks like you (and apparently Trump, of whom it is not entirely clear was aware that PR is a USA Commonwealth when Hurricane Maria hit, Not sure if he is now) have the audacity to call US not American?

Go learn something and fix you own ignorance before criticizing someone else referring to their roots.

Wha? The colonies declared independence in 1776 - winning it in 1781, 20ish years before my family arrived, and over 100 years before 1898.....but Puerto Rico was America first...gotcha.

You went from "My family immigrated from Ireland - but I'm not Irish, I'm an American." to them arriving in 1896.

Regardless, that doesn't change the fact that Puerto Ricans ARE American citizens.

The hypocrisy grows: Over two centuries later, you STILL classified you and your family as Irish.

Keep. your. lies. straight.

How is any of that a lie?

I don't consider myself to be Irish - because I don't know any Irish customs, traditions, I've never been there, I've only ever met a few people from Ireland.... I'm an American.

I happen to know my lineage, and used that knowledge to make a point....a point which flew right over your head.

The point you made is bogus, ignorant, and hypocritical.

If you think Texans consider you to be as American as them, you've never been there.
Same as for their regard for Puerto Ricans.

And yours.

Aww, that's adorable.

Have you looked up what country Puerto Rico is yet, or are you too busy quoting the Word of the Lord to comprehend what the Thou shalt nots mean?

"My father was born in a very fine place in Germany" DJT, however it was the wrong continent but close enough for his sheep supporters

correct, but he said his father was born there, you stay current on news much?

So, your counter argument to AOC saying she's Puerto Rican (which was false, she's American born in New York), is to provide a quote from Trump saying that his father was born in Germany (which was true).....not himself, but his father.

Which is something you clearly are not.

Every Irish-American I've ever met (and we have millions) calls themselves IRISH, no matter how many generations born here (and yes, American as well).

That you are not aware of this makes your claim of home here suspect.

She's claiming to be from somewhere she's not from. Her dad was from Puerto Rico, but she's from New York.

I don't say I'm a Texan because my dad was born in Texas. This isn't rocket science.

Or I know exactly how hard I am to find. There are over a dozen people with my same name within 100 miles of me. Even if you did find me, my business is secure because my customers are more conservative than I am (just a bit). I don't do business with just anyone.

trump already aknowledged her as Puerto Rican when he told her and the squad to go back where they came from, so which is it? Do you dare defy trump and say she's American?

Considering she's from New York, I'd say you lack the ability to understand anything beyond your own hatred for Trump.

So, how far back can we go? I say I'm a Texan because my dad was born in Texas? I can say I'm from Massachusetts because my mom was born there? Is it one generation? 2 generations?

Can I go all the way back to Africa?

All of the sudden I'm a protected minority! SCREW YOUR PRIVILEGE WHITE PEOPLE!

Neither is Puerto Rican - Puerto Rico is a territory made up of at least 4 different ethnicities:

White, Black, Amerindian, Asian and others.

try again

Those are races, not ethnicities.

Not sure if a lie counts as a stupid quote, but I'm going with it.

Which makes her American. She wishes she wasn't American, because RACISM...and what is this thing attached to my sink drain?
