This should be concerning to everyone on both sides of the house. She’s not going away anytime soon.

Everyone who isn't white is a victim, and it's all the white mans fault. The day is coming where a crazy bitch like her is going to win the White House, and when giving minorities a head start still doesn't change results, it will be an all out war on the middle and upper class.

Did you miss the 8 years of Obama?

True. She is just one stupid bitch. But the movement behind the stupid bitch is pretty scary and the populous seems ripe for the picking. It started in 2009. I can probably hang on with America being America but I worry for my granddaughter as I am not sure what America will look like in 30 years.

God I hate her
Don't.
She's as well meaning as Jenny McCarthy talking about vaccinations.
She really is.

Is she an airhead? Absolutely.
But hating her is like hating Chrissy on three's company.

Instead, hate the imbeciles empowering her. Hate the Socialist MSM sycophants who refuse to fact-check a word she says. Hate the grown adults giving her fiction-filled speeches standing-ovations, reacting as if they are witness to some epiphany of new truth. Hate them. They deserve it.

As for AOC, she has already crossed too many monied interests in the Democrat party. She's ascended too far too fast. Her naivety and inexperience put her in legal crosshairs from sources she won't see coming. As I've said before, she is as likely as not to get taken down by some unwitting transgression which others will paint as AOC's supposed deliberate immoral lawlessness.

The same NPC followers now showering her in adoration will obsequiously follow narratives, false though they may be, that she's turned corrupt. Lemmings in search of the next cliff.

well at least leftists are starting to accept it

the "redlining" they always bring up was a fricking FDR policy (but they typically leave that out)

I love the New Deal but its implementation and consequences often were racist, especially in the Jim Crow South where local control of programs ensures that almost all of its benefits went to white people.

I'm convinced she's a plant from the Replubicans.

The only thing more dumb than her is the mouthbreathers that elected her. Ya, the incumbant was a shite bag as well, but damn.

Hate that there’s a decent chance I won’t get it, despite having paid into it.

Social Security is great. Retirement pre-Social Security was a nightmare for those who weren’t wealthy.

This bartender is as ignorant as she is insane. And she's being groomed to run for president with a huge amount of money, infrastructure, and lobbying power behind her. It's pretty terrifying if you ask me. She's a puppet dictator.

We will need to meet her stupid ideas and her supporters with deadly force. Socialism and communism need to be defeated with brute force, not “ideas”
