My Goodness, Ms. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez IS STILL the gift that keeps on giving.

[maxparrish]

Ms. Ocasio-Cortez, the latest minority messiah of the new socialist politics, has not reduced her output on-going amusement. The craft drink bartender "from the Bronx" is back showing us the worth of a 1/4 of a mill in higher education costs, and a degree in International Relations and Economics from Boston U.

The self-admitted non-expert on geo-politics and on the causes of unemployment (certified by getting the the pants of fire award) reports she has taken a crash course from a noble economist - and showed Trevor Noah on the Daily Show how "smart" she is on economics.

On the show Noah kindly asked her how she intended to pay for her agenda. Ms. O-C prattled on about Warren Buffet not paying his fair share, and how raising the corporate tax to 28 percent would raise 2 Trillion dollars over 10 years...unaware, one supposes, that the cost of medi-care for all is anticipated to be upto 28 trillion over 10 years (the bi-partisan Committee for a Responsible Budget). 28T minus 2T is only 26 Trillion short, is she some economist or what ?

And for the shortfall for her full agenda, she suggests there be a carbon tax "on top of that" so we can also get people away from fossil fuels. How much more will it raise? She doesn't know but she did say it will take 3 or 4 trillion to "transition to a 100 percent renewable economy". Exactly how a declining carbon tax for transition to renewables will have anything left over for anything (like Medicare or the rest of her agenda) is a mystery.

Finally OC showed how smart she has become from researching the budget: "Just last year we gave the military a $700 billion budget increase, which they didn’t even ask for,” “They’re, like, ‘we don’t want another fighter jet!’ They’re, like, ‘don’t give us another nuclear bomb,’ you know?”

Had Noah remembered he was on the comedy channel, perhaps he should have been laughing. The military got a 70 billion dollar increase, not 700B increase. The total Defense budget is 700B. And saving 70B a year ain't gonna be but a drop in the bucket for her agenda.

Ms. O-C has a certain naiveness that is emblematic of her generation, and unlike some she is trying to sound like a serious person - gamely floating out a few nonsensical numbers to back her platitudes. But every time she is given a platform you can't help but feel like a 14 year old switched bodies with an adult - how could a grad in International Relations and Econ be so ignorant and math incompetent?

Who knows, but it does seem appropriate for her to have had a guest interview on the comedy channel, no?

What do expect from a Socialist that has never run a business?

Bernie's wife ran a college and it went bankrupt! That's all you need to know.

Calling this person "Retarded" is an insult to mentally handicapped people.

 

[Bucky]

I bet she wasn't a good bartender.

I wouldn't be surprised if she charged all her customers gratuity. If she was a good bartender, she would have a better understanding of how our economy works.

 

[TobyOne]

Hot little Marxist.

 

[azgreg]

Calling this person "Retarded" is an insult to mentally handicapped people.

Leave republicans out of this.

 

[Bucky]

Calling this person "Retarded" is an insult to mentally handicapped people.

So why do liberals do it with our President?

Not sure. One co-worker quit, in part, because she was hoarding tips meant to be shared with the group.

 

[Grand Mal]

What do expect from a Socialist that has never run a business?

Bernie's wife ran a college and it went bankrupt! That's all you need to know.

Trump ran a casino into bankruptcy. The arithmetic guarantees the house will win and he still claimed bankruptcy for protection from his creditors. Sucks to have been someone he owed money to, but he'd worked that scam many times before and knew how to legally rip off his creditors and contracters.
That's all you need to know.

 

[PLizzy]

Blame yourselves conservatives.

You set a dangerous precedent by holding Trump up as standard and now the left is simply following your own rule book.

Cortez is what happens when conservatives elect Trump.

She claims.

 

[Linc]

She claims.

I’ll play. Speaking of those smearing Strong Democratic Women, especially those of Color —

Let’s show some of the many moronic musketeers — or is that silly, stupid stooges — or barking loons — Gohmert — Nunes — Meadows — Jordan — Iowa’s King, not New York’s —

House Majority Whip Steve Scalise Backs Rosenstein impeachment push — Ryan plays the Sanity and Patriotic Card, squashing the impeachment drive — now the carnival barkers want a censure vote

McCarthy will be the ranking member next year.

 

[lurchadams]

Warms my heart that conservatives are so terrified of a little girl who won a primary in a district in New York. They know they put their eggs in the wrong basket with tRump and his corrupt administration and now the chickens are coming home to roost.

Boy you guys are terrified of her aren't you?

You set a dangerous precedent by holding Trump up as standard and now the left is simply following your own rule book.

Honestly, I don't care much for AOC. I don't see her as that big a threat. Plus the Democratic establishment will keep her in check. But if I know interviews, you usually get an questionnaire before you go on talk shows so that there are no gotcha questions. Especially on friendlies. So perhaps she is playing Mr. Swampys game a bit.

 

[Bucky]

Blame yourselves conservatives.

You set a dangerous precedent by holding Trump up as standard and now the left is simply following your own rule book.

At least we can find common agreement that AOC is completely out of her league. She's barely qualified to babysit my daughter.

"Alex from the block" is a joke.

 

[Bucky]

Warms my heart that conservatives are so terrified of a little girl who won a primary in a district in New York. They know they put their eggs in the wrong basket with tRump and his corrupt administration and now the chickens are coming home to roost.

I find it funny how liberals gloss over the fact Alex is unqualified and giver her a pass because she is a minority.

The Double Standard is easily visible.

 

[Casca XV]

So why do liberals do it with our President?

Liberals calling Trump "Retarded" is like a down-syndrome person calling Einstein "Stupid."

 

[NeverTrump]

I find it funny how liberals gloss over the fact Alex is unqualified and giver her a pass because she is a minority.

The Double Standard is easily visible.

She's not unqualified. All you need are votes to win an election. (and to meet the other minimum requirements) Otherwise you can claim all the BS you want. How does it feel to be on the other end now?

 

[Puigb]

I find it funny how liberals gloss over the fact Alex is unqualified and giver her a pass because she is a minority.

The Double Standard is easily visible.

Trump is arguably the most unqualified person to ever run and win the presidency ever...and you guys gave him a pass because he's a white race baiting piece of ****.

 

[Puigb]

Warms my heart that conservatives are so terrified of a little girl who won a primary in a district in New York. They know they put their eggs in the wrong basket with tRump and his corrupt administration and now the chickens are coming home to roost.

I realized the more "conservatives" obsess over a particular Democrat, the chances that they are worried about them being a threat to their political power is likely very high. They'll claim other wise, but it's obvious to anyone paying attention.

 

[itsforthekids]

Not sure. One co-worker quit, in part, because she was hoarding tips meant to be shared with the group.

Shhhhhh......NO ONE will ever believe that this sweet, virtuous socialist has ever done anything like that!

They really do think like children...and several thousand people in her district will vote for her because she’s “brave”. Lol

[Hedgology]

Exactly.

Cortez is what happens when conservatives elect Trump.

So you combat a buffoon, with another buffoon...

The left keeps scream how they can't legitimize Trump, but they keep doing legitimizing him by using his tactics. It's almost as if the left keeps losing or something...
