And why do liberals love trains so much. I don’t get it. Why replace airplanes with trains? It’s like they want to go back to the 1800s.

And the "how are going going to do this, how are we going to pay for it?" question is answered with "Hey! We've done hard things before. We build all of the interstate highways, sent a man to the moon, and build 300K airplanes during WWII."
Of course, finally the answer is that it will all be paid for by the federal reserve extending credit. And simply that "sure, it's going to be expensive. But it's an investment in our future."
I'm all for being better stewards of the earth we live on. And I tend to be a relatively optimistic guy. But I don't see us doing away with all of the combustion engines currently under operation and replacing all of the energy plants in the US with renewable energy sources in the next 10 years. That's crazy talk.

Hey, if Elon Musk can launch spaceman driving a tesla to mars then he can build hyperloops to all the major cities of this country!

But in the green new deal, she says not only no new nuclear plants - she's hoping to close the ones currently in operation and replace their production.
So, as I understand it, we're going to run the electricity of the entire nation with wind, solar, geothermal, and hydroelectric. And we're going to do that while also eliminating all combustion engines - so we'll need to not only power homes, businesses, etc, we'll also need to produce enough to recharge all of the electric vehicles and trains.
But maybe that's what you were referring to - the fact that it isn't just renewable energy, it's the "right kind" of renewable energy that she's going to allow.

Ocasio-Cortez cheers as Amazon reportedly reconsiders NY HQ after fierce opposition
Amazon is reconsidering opening part of its second headquarters in New York after fierce opposition from lawmakers, according to a new report. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez seemed elated by the news story.
The Washington Post, which is also owned by Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos, reported the Seattle-based tech giant is reconsidering the plan and has not leased or purchased any office space for the project. The report cited two people familiar with the company's thinking.
“The question is whether it’s worth it if the politicians in New York don’t want the project, especially with how people in Virginia and Nashville have been so welcoming,” one person familiar with the company’s plans told the Post.
Ocasio-Cortez, who has been extraordinarily negative towards Amazon, which has promised 25,000 jobs and over $27.5 billion in tax revenue in 25 years, tweeted that "everyday people" can "effectively organize against creeping overreach of one of the world’s biggest corporations."
