I'll see your baby pics and raise you a Reagan on velociraptor with a machine gun and rocket launcher.
The wall street journal and bloomberg both wrote pieces on her that were put out yesterday, I would bet there were others too, and she was of course trending on social media as she usually is.
Guess I missed that, because nobody linked to the articles or mentioned them. They just insulted her intelligence for no obvious reason (although I have my guesses). The discussion started with someone replying to a post insulting her intelligence from two weeks ago.
well silver doesn't seem at all like an alias of a recently-banned poster. I look forward to more of his contributions.
While you and I agree that the assessment of her intelligence is incorrect, I just don't think you have to be obsessed with her to make comments on her. I cant go a single day without seeing something mentioning her. Anybody that uses any kind of site that gathers lots of news is bound to run across her on a very regular basis.
By the way, the same people I'm thinking of who hold that view...
I think this depends a lot on whether you consider their beliefs to be reasonable. If you disagree with me about marginal tax rates, you might still be smart. If you disagree with me about whether underwear goes on the outside or inside of your pants, not so much.
I think Obama was very intelligent. It's not even a fair comparison between Obama and AOC. Someone who lumps those two together is showing their ignorance and bias IMO. Obama didn't have these daily gaffs like AOC has when its clear her staff didn't have her scripted. And for the record, I don't think AOC is dumb. It's clear she's ignorant and very green. She often speaks like an over-zealous high schooler running for class president. Two things she can improve on but at the same time might it will likely make her more boring.
I'm obsessed with how much she entertains me in a "watching a car wreck" kind of way. That's the God's honest truth. I have no worries that she's going rise to the level to be able to impact my life. She's a bit player no matter how much the media hypes her.
I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss people who think underwear goes on the inside. They might have a decent reason if you're willing to listen.
As someone who follows action on the Hill pretty closely, I'd say she probably has fewer "car wreck" moments than the average member, and a lot more outstanding moments (her work at hearings is excellent, supposedly because she has so much time to prep because she doesn't have to fundraise). You just hear about her car wrecks ad nauseam, because Fox News and Ben Shapiro have chosen her to fill the void that Hillary Clinton left in their programming schedules and their hearts.
She's like an over sized star. She burns super hot and super fast, but will eventually collapse in on herself and supernova.
it was certainly a common meme here with numerous derisive remarks citing his "57 states" remark, his pronunciation of "corpsman" and of course his use of the teleprompter which supposedly confirmed that he couldn't think for himself.
She is a total hack. Her 'outstanding' moments at hearings include several utterly embarrassing moments. Her attacks on Wells Fargo were cringe-worthy and demonstrated even basic misunderstanding of how financing works and lacking basic facts in her over the top rhetoric.TobiasFunke said:
Make sure to get a picture or something. You are talking to the future first female President of the United States. Her messages resonate with America and she will be, unanimously, a top 10 President for her eight years.BobbyLayne said:
Because I am interested in what she has to say.
Uhhh 24 hours ago, there was discussion about the GND Going to senate vote.TobiasFunke said:
Quality trolling there! I love how 10 percent in the far left is your America. Very fitting. Just how many people voted for her green plan? Keep your wagons hitch to that train.
Sadly with AOC being only 29 she won’t be able to run for President for 6 years. And the world ends in 12 years so we would never see that 2nd AOC full term anyway.
This is true. But it has nothing to do with intelligence. It has to do with knowledge.
Misinformation is your play. It's your, and Republicans, go to. Good talking with you.
I think a lot of this does apply to Trump.
I think many people are well meaning as long as things go in the direction they believe is correct.
I get your point; as I’ve noted, even Trump can be gracious and generous when he’s winning.
Are you really in a position to judge others' interest in her? You care enough about her to consistently devote your time to anonymously trashing her on a message board.
I did not mention names. Just said many people are well meaning if things go the way they think they should. Like the Amazon job deal in NY. Cortez firmly believes she was well meaning and happy when it was kaboshed. Many locals felt very different.
By "locals" do you mean the people who actually live in the neighborhood where the Amazon building was going to be located who would have had to deal with all the negative impacts associated with gentrification on that scale? Or do you mean New Yorkers who live elsewhere in the city/state who would have gotten all of the economic benefits and none of the burden?
General area.Many people wanted it, many did not. The people who did not want Amazon believe Cortez was well meaning, those who wanted it think she was out of line.
I don’t find this to be true. Only yesterday Trump angrily told fellow Republicans he was against sending any more aid to Puerto Rico. That was said out of spite and cruelty IMO.
That doesn't answer my question. There's a huge difference between saying "New Yorkers wanted it" and "residents of Long Island City wanted it." The latter is her constituency and her only concern in a gentrification/NIMBY type situation, the former is not. If anything they're the enemy. Which are you talking about? Maybe if you link to where you're getting your information that would help?
Well I can’t think of an example where AOC has ever expressed anything even close to that level of cruelty- can you? That’s why I’m pretty sure she is a good person and he isn’t.
We are totally off track here. Take Trump out of it because he distorts any conversation here and plug in whoever.
There are a bunch on articles on the NY Times about it. I can`t get it on my phone as you have to subscribe.
So your opinion on who wanted it and who didn't is based on articles you read once, can't currently access, and don't remember well enough to say who they were talking about?
If I could access I would. I read so much it is difficult to remember everything..sorry.
No problem, I appreciate your effort.
Really? Not a chance on her green earth will she ever be president of the USA. When she's beaten in her next congress election she will barely be remembered 10 years from now.
