Same with Kim Klacik in Balto. One of the worst cities in the US, dems have done nothing there…but the dummies will vote them back in anyway.
What these people never seem to get is that the never really get anything from their reps. Their neighborhoods never improve, jail terms never go away, drugs are always there, gangs are everywhere.
AOC is nothing new in big city politics. NYC had Bella Abzug…for the people. Wore funny hats talked like a neighborhood loudmouth and never did anything. Great coverage in the NYC tabloids…but did nothing. Adam Clayton Powell was was another "for the people" character. He was found guilty of misappropriating funds and some other legal scandals. Congress refused to seat him or kicked him out and the dummies in Harlem still re-elected him. One of the main streets there is named after him. But he was a brother. Black guy I was in the army with from Indiana was passed over for a promotion so he wrote Adam Clayton Powell because he felt that was his congressman because he was black. He did as much for the army guy as he did for his constituents…nothing.
So AOC isn't all that new. She is just better looking, has loads of charisma, and has the internet to get her message out…something that didn't exist in years gone by.
And no one seems to wonder who is in the background pulling her strings. All these ideas she comes up with aren't from her. Someone is feeding her. Just like her election was beautifully orchestrated (and she was fairly elected). Soros, that Chewbacca guy…I don't know. But there is someone behind her
