"You just ... pay for it" - Ocasio-Cortez cant afford an apartment

Many that vote know nothing more than what they saw on tv. That is the scary part.

Quite the opposite. Political science is rife with hard left/socialist crap and idiots.

That's a major problem. They're filling young heads with stuff of fiction that looks and sounds great,but results in oppression, despair, equal misery and death. The only real benefits are to those who rule this terrible idea. The rest are servants

A basic political aptitude test is absolutely essential. Some us history, basic constitutional stuff,bill of rights, federal papers. It's not that ******* hard....

You guys are borrowing my idea, which I have posed for several years. I point out that numerous meaningful jobs REQUIRE that the person pass a difficult test to show a minimum level of competence - doctor, lawyer, CPA, etc.

For crying out loud, a person who wants to give haircuts or trim nails must first pass a proficiency test. And yet we don't require a minimum level of competence for imbeciles who take trillions of our dollars and squander them on idiotic programs??

I'm thinking that she's such an idiot yet gets so much coverage that the Dems will take her out in the next primary in two years. Remember, the other Democrats don't like her either and she was elected by something like 13% of the voters in her district.



Jim Quinn says the same thing.

I think Dems will take her out too because she's going to rock the boat on their side too. She's too dumb to know that the Dem platform is a scam, it's just a bunch of talking points designed to appeal to emotions and keep people scared.

She thinks the Dems actually want to do the things they say. Of course they don't. They just want to keep getting elected by pretending to fight the evil republicans who want to kill them.

It's the same concept of why Trump gets sabotaged by establishment Reps. Trump is actually trying to enact conservative plans whereas the Reps just want to stay in an endless campaign against the Dems.

The difference between the conservative ideas and liberal ideas is conservative ideas work wherever they are tried. Socialism fails every time.

Exactly. I was thinking the other day that the whole border wall thing is bullshit. Trump wouldn't need to get some Dems to go along when his own damn party ran both houses of Congress the last two years and could have done it.
The Republicans preferred to keep it as an election issue instead of dealing with it, just like the Dems didn't do squat about immigration when they ran both houses of Congress in Bammy's first two years, preferring to keep it as an election issue to run on.

And this is why I think it is stupid to keep the government shut down. Trump and Mitch ****** this up. They blew it. Cut your losses and get folks back to work.
 
Cortez is such a complete idiot. I can't believe anyone voted for her. I mean, I know she has her talking points but when you ask her a question about them, she has no answers. She is truly as dumb as a box of rocks.

I don't think she is dumb. I think being honest about what she wants is one thing. Being honest about how she intends to get there, well, that probably won't be so popular. For some, maybe. Give it time. She will answer those questions when the time is right. Just isn't that time yet.

I don't know. She just seems to have no idea about what she is talking about and cannot articulate it well. Plus, her talking points are some scary ****. If this country heads in the direction she and many on the left want to go, the US will not be a world power in about a decade.
 
The more she talks now, the more her words will be used against her as her political career goes on.

That's why most politicians (except Trump) don't say much at all and talk in legaleze. The media is so obsessed with "gotcha" moments that its refreshing to hear someone just talk from the hip (however uneducated and wrong). In 5 years, all the things she's spewing now, when she wants to try to get moderate voters, will come back to haunt her.

Most don't even care about "gotcha" moments. Every single dem leader is on record as having supported border walls in the past and talked about it openly. But now they don't work... the media never calls them on it. They can't be honest because they want to hold power. Ocult Cortez is a moron and was brainwashed by her liberal professors in college. She will probably spend her entire life in congress never doing anything and just like Bernie Sanders never contributing to society a damn thing.

If that is what she believes, she is dumb.

What strikes me about her is that she talks like a teenager. "Tippy top" and all the "like like like" with this energetic naivety she has kind of precludes her from being taken too seriously IMO. I'm not sure what the strategy is (if there is one), but I'm sure Bernie Sanders and the like have schooled her in the way of liberal political strategy.

Or she's just really dumb.

She said the world will end in 12 years if we don't do something about climate change. She's a ******* idiot. Not disputable.

Yeah and what is with 12 years? What kind of scientific data or talking point did she get that would make her say that? I could understand if she said "50 years from now" or whatever, but that was just weird. And the sad thing is the crowd applauded when she said it.
 
If her goal is getting a lot of attention, then she is not dumb, because she is succeeding. Maybe the dumb ones are those that are giving her what she wants.
Smart people would ignore her.

She’s in congress affecting policy. Not just another stupid liberal.

Yes, brilliant logic. If a teenager's goal is to get a lot of attention by acting out, they're smart. And his/her parents would be smart to just ignore him/her instead of trying to understand why he/she is engaging in said behavior.

You never cease to amaze.
