I believe some of the most despicable and difficult people to work with are those people that are highly arrogant and stupid. AOC is exactly that.
AOC is 31 years old. Upon graduation from college she became a social activist, and waitress. Her father was an architect. She attend Boston University which costs $70,000 per year for in-state students. She was a resident of New York. Ouch!! According to her website she has student debt.
A progressive wing of the Democratic party recruited her to run for Congress in 2016. She was nominated by her brother. She got the backing from many social justice groups, Hispanic groups, and extreme socialist groups. She ran for Congress in a largely democratic district (5 to 1) in NYC and won
She was sworn in and took her Congressional oath on January 3, 2019 at age 29. By all accounts that was quite astounding. Her Congressional salary is $174,000. Not bad for a 29 year old!!
So-for the last 2 years she has taken advantage of her position to propose many socialist programs. Many or these programs have catchy names with goals that seem attractive to various groups like “free public colleges” and forgiveness of student debt (guess that would include hers).
She openly supports the abolishment of Border Police (ICE), single payer health system, free support for immigrants, federal job guarantees (whatever that is??) and of course, the “Green New Deal”. Two years ago, on national TV she said the world will end in 9 years.
Her nickname is “Follow-up question” because after she announces one of these looney programs she does not take any questions to get at the details of her proposals. And-most importantly, how are these programs going to be paid for???? She needs to be challenged.
She is a brilliant actress, performing on social media and TV. She once visited the southern border during the Trump years and was filmed crying at how the immigrants were treated. The filming was of an empty parking lot. This year, she has not commented on Biden’s boarder crisis.
AOC is dangerous. She gets media coverage and often makes outrageous comments about the US. She is a socialist, hates America, and wants to destroy almost all those pillars that have made this country the most successful and free society in world history. She must get challenged and called out for her stupid and shallow ideas. She is a loon!
