The Democrat's and Some on the Left's problem w/Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

[MarcATL]

Earlier this week I had an exchange w/a fellow USMB poster I believe is generally on the left and they expressed having a problem w/Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

However, when prompted to get to the bottom of their reasons, the response was nothing more than fluff.

Personally, I love everything she stands for and she represents her constituents well, and they support her.

This is to/for those of us on the left, including Democrats, what, if any, are your problems w/Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez?

Let's get to the bottom of if.

AOC stands up for poor and struggling Americans

That is why Conservatives hate her

 

[martybegan]

She's an upper middle class twit who pretends to be a prole.

Typical "Vanguard" mentality we see from most socialists.

I'm not a democrat, but one of the problems with AOC is that she doesn't know how the world works, and how she can make her constituents' lives better. One example:
Amazon wanted to build their new HQ2 in AOC's district where they would have spent $billions to replace a blighted area with a new beautiful complex. There would have been thousands of construction jobs and 30,000 or so new full time jobs with benefits. Cuomo said that it would generate $30b a year in state revenue, plus NYC revenue. AOC and her followers said NO, so HQ2 moved to VA. She's a moron.

HQ2 would have changed this...

...to this. DUH.

She is fake as the rest and dumb as a box of rocks.
There is only a couple politicians worthy of praise.
You duopoly cultists have standards lower than 0.
Grow the fuck up.

AOC supports

Universal Healthcare
The environment
Low cost higher education
Better wages
Higher taxes on the wealthy

Are you serious?

 

[LordBrownTrout]

Not surprising, she exploits and uses her own constituents and they don't even see it.

She is a glaring example of the brainwashing of college idgits. At least she raises awareness

 

[LordBrownTrout]

They really think that.

she supports the environment?
Dumbass
The rest is federal supremacist bullshit. Thats why you like her. You jerk off to central authority because you cant wipe your own ass. Why force decent minded people to succumb to your bullshit?

Yes she does
AOC understands that long term protection of the environment is preferable to short term profits
Read the Green New Deal
She also wants a Government that has a priority to poor and working people rather than the rich

the green new deal? Oh yeah! The thing she said can be paid for by having all of our banks print money!
Dumbasses support dumbasses

Universal Healthcare

Low cost higher education

Higher taxes on the wealthy

So basically, she supports stealing someone else's money.

Why did she fight against the new Amazon HQ coming to NYC?

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Not surprising, she exploits and uses her own constituents and they don't even see it.

So, in other words she is exactly the same as every other elected official in our Fed Govt?

She's definitely the leader of the new America Socialist's Peoples Party, formerly known as democrat Party

 

[Harpy Eagle]

So basically, she supports stealing someone else's money.

What politician does not?

 

[Wild Bill Kelsoe]

AOC supports

Universal Healthcare
The environment
Low cost higher education
Better wages
Higher taxes on the wealthy

She's a fucking communist. Fuck her.

Rep Crenshaw made a comment that summed up the problem:

"There are two types of members of Congress: there is performance artists and there is legislators," Crenshaw claimed. "Performance artists are the ones who get all of the attention, the ones you think are more conservative because they know how to say slogans real well. They know how to recite the lines that they know our voters want to hear."

These comments were profound. It isn’t just conservatives who do this. Too many elected reps across the board engage in the same theatrics. Rep Ocasio-Cortez is a performance artist more concerned with tweets and viral soundbites.
