Ocasio-Cortez

It’s this marketplace of ideas that distinguishes America’s form of government from those in dictatorships, many of which have billed themselves as socialist or communist over the past 100 years. You won’t find meaningful candidate or parliamentary debates in these countries.

When challenged to a standard political debate by Shapiro, Ocasio-Cortez responded with a tweet: “Just like catcalling, I don’t owe a response to unsolicited requests from men with bad intentions. And also like catcalling, for some reason they feel entitled to one.”

Implying that Shapiro was making a sexual advance with “bad intentions” by calling for a televised debate is insulting, sexist and absurd.

If Ocasio-Cortez is elected to the House, will she accuse male and female members who want to debate her ideas of “catcalling” and “bad intentions?”

The only logical explanation for Ocasio-Cortez to refuse to debate and to keep the media out of her town hall event with voters is that she is afraid she will be unable to defend her radical socialist beliefs.

When someone pointed out that her plans would cost 30 trillion dollars, her response was to raise the corporate tax rate. Which would increase federal revenue by 2 trillion dollars........

My math is a little fuzzy, but there seems to be a slight shortfall there....

Re: Ocasio-Cortez

Entitled child of well to do parents masquerading as "one of the people".


If you refuse to debate facts and be held accountable for your views you shouldn't be allowed to run.


She's mentioned needing a "Media Safe Space" which means either she knows her ideas and platform is a load of bull pucky or this entitled lil snowflake is having some full on cognitive dissonance and is refusing to deal with reality.

She is the face of the new Democrat party, she is what we are facing - one step from full-blown open communists.

And we know how that always ends up: bodies stacked like cordwood.

I'll leave the concluding thoughts to the readers to mull in private.

This ideal she represents sells in the city, and on campus, not sure it will go in the flyover lands. For now, we may escape it in our lifetime. Our kids are in for a mess.

I'm sure some of the kulaks thought the same. These people have no intention of leaving anyone alone. The biggest problem the Deplorables™ have is they think others play by the same or similar rules as they do, or think similarly to themselves. Flyover people just want to be left alone, generally.

Communists see that as cowardice and weakness and a green light to press the accelerator further. They never quit. They never stop. They never give up. They are hungry. And everyone's on the menu.
