I, for one, was thankful for the controversy yesterday. That BU shirt in the college dancing video showed off the rack nicely.

Looks like she is taking a page out of the Trump playbook and not playing nice within her own party.

I like this quote. For a millennial it is going to be a hard choice. :lol:
“She needs to decide: Does she want to be an effective legislator or just continue being a Twitter star?” said one House Democrat who’s in lockstep with Ocasio Cortez’s ideology. “There’s a difference between being an activist and a lawmaker in Congress.”
Full article.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is already making enemies in the House Democratic Caucus — and some of its members are mounting an operation to bring the anti-establishment, democratic socialist with 2.2 million Twitter followers into the fold.

The effort, described by nearly 20 lawmakers and aides, is part carrot, part stick: Some lawmakers with ties to Ocasio-Cortez are hoping to coax her into using her star power to unite Democrats and turn her fire on Republicans. Others simultaneously warn Ocasio-Cortez is destined for a lonely, ineffectual career in Congress if she continues to treat her own party as the enemy.

Whoa no’s! She’s upsetting the Democratic establishment! :rofl:

At least she’s already proven herself to be smarter than anyone at FoxNews regarding marginal tax rates. :nod:

Free healthcare for everyone? If you truly believe that's going to LOWER the cost of healthcare you are fucking delusional. I need only point you to what government involvement in the student loan business has done to the cost of college.

This will be like Trump talking about healthcare...

He made incredible promises
He implied he understood things he did not
He announced he had a plan completed that was "The best in the world"

In the end... Nothing but noise
closing with him saying: "Who knew Healthcare was so hard"

:nod:

She's got a lot to learn
I hope she keeps her mouth shut until she understands the problems

Good luck with that. She's a :dunce: :dunce: :dunce: :dunce:

Oh, and I'm not worried in the short term...the committee doesn't mean shit, as they have to make recommendations to the house and pass laws that the senate will pass and the President will sign...not a lot of chance of that in the next two years. Then....we shall see...at that point AOC will be in a reelection battle...
