aide to Rep. Womack in Rogers, Arkansas over DACA.
First time I've ever lost it on a call. The guy tried to tell me that there wouldn't be any deportations unless 'they do something wrong. I said, "Bullshit!".
I'm still shaking with anger.

Unless the animal is a fish. Do not attempt to pet the fish.
And recognize that GOP politicians lie reflexively.

(11,100 posts)Talking to Womack - or anyone who would work for him - cannot be a rewarding experience but Womack and his ilk need to know that not all Arkansas folks support his hateful agenda.
