I seriously doubt he's scared, I can't imagine the level of stupidity of people who voted for this no talent arse clown, she is a total moron.
quote:

Progressive Democrats accused President Trump of engaging in scare tactics for his warning in the State of the Union address about new calls for socialism in the United States.
quote:

"I thought it was great. I think he's scared," Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) told reporters when asked about Trump's remarks. "He sees that everything is closing in on him and he knows that he's losing the battle of public opinion."
quote:

Ocasio-Cortez is a Democratic Socialist who has soared to political fame following her victory in a Democratic primary last summer. She has joined other liberals in the House in calling for a single-payer healthcare system. She also voiced support for higher marginal tax rates on the wealthiest households, as well as the "green new deal" that would fund programs to create clean climate jobs.

shes just a running stream of consciousness trying to maintain her 15 minutes of fame as long as possible.

of course the adoring media love sharing comments from 'minorities' that make zero sense.

LOL this is how stupid she is, or how stupid she thinks we are: she identifies as a Democratic Socialist.

This is funny.

AOC will be out of office in 2021, yet DJT will still be president.

It certainly scares me that there are enough people in this country that apparently want socialism that those who outright advocate it are now being elected into our House and Senate. Seems it should scare anyone who doesn't want such a thing in our government or nation.

Unfortunately, she will probably be around awhile like Mad Maxine and Pelosi. Promising the world and delivering nothing.

People who want this should really try to educate themselves before wanting something that never works. There is no free lunch, it's just that simple.

I'm scared. Socialism ruined many otherwise prosperous countries. And socialism breeds corruption even more so than our government paradigm.

But, you know, all those other countries did it all wrong. We'll be the ones to get it right!
