That a Democratic woman and Republican woman both look stronger than Donald Trump? Good point!Nancy Pelosi is carrying around Trump’s balls in her purse.Alexandria who? Why is the crazy angry left obsessed with conservative men?
Well probably because they don’t have any men on the left, so we are a novelty
Or is that Ann Coulter?
And you made my point
Which most Americans agree with.She’s smarter than most GOP congressmen. Or women.Palin wasn’t smart. AOC is smart.So, what was it when the left was obsessed with Sarah Palin?
Despite the prattlings of low IQ hyper-partisans, what drove the left in regards to her is no different than what drives the right in terms of the naïve Marxist. They are both dumb asses.
You’re standard for smart is incredibly low
No she isn’t. She is trying to advocate a 70% tax
Which has to do with government policy . . . how?She's very bright and you're just jealous you have no conservative equivalent.
You’re right. We have no equivalent.
We will just have to settle for the hotter more beautiful women on the right
She scares the hell out of them!

Conservative Men Are Obsessed With Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Science Tells Us Why.
Conservatives respond to fear more strongly than liberals do, says one neuroscientist who studies political anxiety.
Conservatives’ bizarre, escalating obsession with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) reached a new level this week when The Daily Caller published fake revenge porn of the new congresswoman.
“Here’s The Photo Some People Described As A Nude Selfie Of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez,” the Caller’s original headline read, before it was changed and the site posted a “we regret the error” message on Twitter. For the record, the photo is not of Ocasio-Cortez, despite what “some people” have said.
Since Ocasio-Cortez, a 29-year-old working-class democratic socialist, unexpectedly toppled powerful white male incumbent Joe Crowley in a June primary, she’s become an object of fixation among Republicans, especially Republican men. Conservative writer Ed Scarry posted a photo of her backside on Twitter, questioning whether her black suit was befitting of a “girl who struggles.” Right-wing media discovered that she ― like a lot of people named “Alexander,” “Alexandra” or some variant thereof ― went by the nickname “Sandy” in high school. A self-proclaimed “proud Christian Dad” on Twitter circulated a video of her dancing in a T-shirt in college as if it would be a career-damaging revelation. A Republican strategist referred to her as “the little girl” on Fox News, which runs segments about her constantly.
The obvious explanation is that men have literally never seen a woman in her 20s in the halls of Congress before. She’s attractive, telegenic and good at social media. She dances outside her Cannon House office. Conservative men are confused at being drawn to this bright rising star in the Democratic Party while loathing everything she stands for.
But that doesn’t fully explain the fervor with which conservatives hang on her every word, waiting for her to slip, and dig through her past for any feeble sign that she isn’t who she says she is. There’s an existential, panicked tinge to the behavior here ― what you might call “AOC Derangement Syndrome.” Indeed, some experts say conservative men are obsessed with Ocasio-Cortez because they’re threatened by her.
Conservatives tend to respond to fear more strongly than liberals do, according to Bobby Azarian, a neuroscientist whose expertise in anxiety has led him to examine political behaviors. His research has found that the brains of conservative people are likely to display the same attention biases as the brains of people with anxiety.
“The one main cognitive difference is that conservatives are more sensitive to threat,” he said. “Their fears are sometimes exaggerated. I think they fear her.”
Ocasio-Cortez’s power is a direct threat to conservatives because her very existence in Congress as a young, Latina, working-class woman threatens to upend the social order that has kept white men in the ruling class for centuries. (Eighty-eight percent of House Republicans are white men, most are over the age of 50, and the party’s voters are majority white and male.) On top of that, she is using her position and platform to directly challenge that order ― to attempt to get money out of politics, raise taxes on the super-rich and level the playing field.

She wants to tax the holy shit out of the rich and I'm all for that.A chick who can't utter two sentences with saying "like" and/or "yanno" is bright...About as bright as a firefly.
I could be Mehgan McCain if she'd just drop some weight.Some of them think it’s Ben ‘Baby Hitler’ Shapiro.
She scares the hell out of them!
