I HAVE to think she's a distraction to keep opposition focus elsewhere.  She can't be THAT stupid. . .  ???
I hate to burst your bubble, but, yes, yes she can.

I agree.  The typical democrat seems to be an overly emotional, easily coerced fool.

They are fodder for a clever, though irrational argument that aligns with their childish world view.

Occasional-Cortex is just a vapid tool/mouthpiece for the leftist puppet masters.  She seems ot be effective at that.

No bubble to burst. It was mostly sarcasm. The remainder was disbelief. Sad that I see more her age being just like that...

My view of liberals have been that they tend to be emotional as opposed to rational or logical. Then when faced with a rational argument, their comeback is about as insightful as “ooh, look there’s a squirrel”. Remind you of anyone who posts here?

I see that very much in my liberal friends who get into a frenzy for anything Trump does, not matter the reason. It could be for their benefit or what they had been actually advocating for before.

My response was likewise intended as humor/sarcasm. I really don't know, but I believe that she really could be that dumb, only because I don't believe she could be that good an actress playing dumb.

I think it's possible that AOC and Bernie and Liawatha and Kamala et al are ALL tools being used to set up the emergence of the "moderate"/"centrist" Democrat (Biden, Bloomberg, Schultz, etc.) who will finally get the nomination and have a more realistic chance of beating Trump than an outright socialist (note to the person who always asserts there are hard and fast definitions of (at least upper case) Socialist, Communist, Fascist, etc., I'm using those words (lower case) in their more general meanings as listed in dictionaries). I'm aware that that thinking may be delusional due to my unwillingness to recognize how far gone our country is and that the masses suffering TDS would actually elect Stalin or Mao if they were on the ballot in 2020.

Haha. I wasn’t sure.

I “thought” along the same lines as you. But that’s damn deep conspiracy to get folks like her and Omar planted. When even super liberal NPR are bashing on them.

I was doing more research on Social Democrats and it wasn’t what I thought. But I can understand more why the younger generation are gravitating to it.

This is what happens when you elect someone based on popularity.  Someone who has a shitty FICO score, never run/managed a business, never bought a home, no political experience, no real work experience. 

First 2 months in office, cost her state 25,000 jobs and billions in taxes/revenues.

I thought the question was from Unforgiven.

Trust me it was josey wales. A great movie and amongst my all-time fav movies.
There was so much dark humor and some of it is barely audible...something like easter eggs.

Okay. I've seen the movie 100 times, but the question didn't sound familiar. Here's the quote:

Lone Watie:
How did you know which one was goin' to shoot first?

Josie Wales:
Well, that one in the center: he had a flap holster and he was in no itchin' hurry. And the one
second from the left: he had scared eyes, he wasn't gonna do nothin'. But that one on the far
left: he had crazy eyes. Figured him to make the first move.

I condensed it for brevity.

Continuing on ....Josie says he wasn't worried about the other guy because Lone watie was there.

As they ride off into the sunset you can barely hear lone watie say, "I could have missed"

AOC is facing a Federal Elections Commission (FEC) complaint that she laundered money from her campaign to a PAC supporting her campaign, who then paid that to her boyfriend.

Totally corrupt, just like every good Socialist "boss".

Lets see what the commission finds before declaring guilt.

so now she's writing down names for DNC who vote against the party.  No communism here.

We know both parties do it, but no one admits it.
