AOC Proposes Nationwide Ban On Straws
After Learning Trump
Won Straw Poll
WASHINGTON, DC — Following former
President Donald Trump's overwhelming victory in CPAC's straw poll for the 2024
Republican presidential nomination, New York Congresswoman Alexandria
Ocasio-Cortez has proposed legislation that would impose a nationwide ban on
the use of straws.
"This poll shows straws are a
threat to our democracy!" Ocasio-Cortez said in a statement to the media.
"If straws are supporting Donald Trump and his dangerous ‘MAGA' movement,
then they have no business being in public circulation, let alone voting for
President!"
"Plus, they outnumber humans,
like, 2 to 1. That's scary!"
The straw poll, conducted at the
annual Conservative Political Action Conference, showed Trump garnering a
commanding 60% of the votes cast. This resulted in immediate calls from
Democrats to subject straws to even heavier regulation. . . .
And the closer:

seen at a local coffee shop gluing herself to a straw in protest.
