AOC riles Dems by refusing to pay party dues, bankrolling colleagues' opponents

quote:

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has already topped the fundraising charts in her short time in Congress, but the liberal darling won’t donate a cent of her millions to Democrats' House campaign organization -- a position that has rankled some of her colleagues, Fox News has learned

quote:

“Sometimes the question comes: 'Do you want to be in a majority or do you want to be in the minority?'” Rep. Gregory Meeks, D-N.Y., told Fox News, when asked about AOC's stance. “And do you want to be part of a team?"

quote:

Another source was less diplomatic: “Deadbeat Cortez should pay her bills,” complained a House Democratic aide. “She’s always whining about people paying their fair share and here she is leaving her friends with the bill.”


This could be entertaining

Hmm, this is probably the first time in history that a Socialist was given wealth from the people and decided to keep it rather than redistribute.

I don't blame her. Even though she and her socialist stalwarts are taking the party so far Leftward FDR's casket is liable to catch fire from how fast he is turning over in it, the party machines are far too demanding. Not only that but the DNC itself has shown it cannot be trusted with fiscal responsibility after they let Hillary and her campaign damned near bankrupt them.

Another aspect of it is how the parties demand their legislators make donation calls (whether recorded or live) to big donors for other candidates or the party itself.

I would like seeing more candidates turn their backs on The Powers That Be(tm) at party HQ to strike out on their own, this would heavily dilute party power and possibly make room for 3rd party candidates.

Socialists are known for being generous with other peoples' money, not their own money.

As if this is shocking. She has a sub 80 IQ. Its incredible someone as stupid and clueless as her got elected. Equally if not more stupid is the media who treat her as anything more than a literal braindead idiot.

100% of her behavior contradicts 100% of what she says with her mouth everyday.
