As I have said before, I don't think she is inherently stupid, but I think she is very young intellectually and certainly not very smart practically. She reminds me of someone who has done well in college in some non-stem topic learning from a bunch of lazy socialist or communist professors and suddenly finds herself in front of all these microphones and just cant wait to show all the really very clever (but ultimately moronic) things she thinks she knows.PLesa excuse the tpyos.

But the most appalling thing is the press. How many democrats are there in Congress? I think the House added 62. And all the press wants to talk about are the three nitwits. Most of the new democrates are moderates who were elected in traditaionlly moderate or conservative districts in reaction to Trump. JL is right. The democrats are doing their best to blow it when Trump is so beatable.When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him.

Lol. A couple old white guys making fun of the brown girl for being dumb. But it’s the media’s fault for giving her attention. No credit can be given to her! So cliche. Reminds me of the smug libs patting themselves on the back as they remind each other that they’re smarter than the billionaire in the Oval Office.
Got news for you two. She has more power and influence than either of you will ever have. She’s a Congresswoman at 28 years old and understands how to turn the national conversation better than anyone in her party, only bested by the President on the other side.
Now I certainly disagree with her on policy, which is disastrous. But I respect her accomplishments and fear her trajectory. She’s not going away and the GOP better figure out a better approach than insults.

Your redefinition of "socialism" is a fun game you like to play, which you then use as a cudgel indiscriminately. As a student of your posts and a great admirer, I expect more nuance from you.

The only thing I'll say is that she's a creation of those who generate the national conversation. Not vice versa. And they'll ditch her as soon as she stops being a suitable emblem. If people really took her seriously she wouldn't survive saying things like "Good, now we get to keep $3 billion that was going to Amazon.""Guitar groups are on their way out, Mr Epstein."
Upon rejecting the Beatles, Dick Rowe told Brian Epstein of the January 1, 1962 audition for Decca, which signed Brian Poole and the Tremeloes instead.

We've made Islamophobia the cornerstone of our foreign policy for the last two decades and have wasted trillions of dollars on foreign wars. Essentially, the largest welfare system in the world today is run by the Pentagon but yet something BS uttered in the 1970s and a young uppity Latina are our "biggest challenge".

No dem can get any air time right now because the three freshman hard left wackos get all of the coverage. Does anyone know what Pelosi or Schumer have to say about anything right now? Most of the dem candidates were quick to jump on the AOC green idiocy. Mass shooting in NZ, what did AOC have to say about it. Just because of the coverage they get, these three are actually controlling real power. This is becoming Trump 2.0 and it is scary.One of the grandest benefits of the enlightenment was the realization that our moral sense must be based on the welfare of living individuals, not on their immortal souls. Honest and passionate folks can strongly disagree regarding spiritual matters, so it's imperative that we not allow such considerations to infringe on the real happiness of real people.
