What has she said that you find so laughable? You shared one instance and I honestly thought you were being more literal and she was being more figurative. She certainly does seem to be for a bigger gov't so I can see someone like yourself disagreeing with her but she doesn't seem like an imbecile to meQuote:

On the flub side (similar to Palin saying “I can see Russia...”)- not knowing the difference between a red and blue state and not knowing the three chambers of government.Quote:

Also, just look at any of her interviews. She seems like a deer in headlights.
Isn't it 3 branches of government and 36 chambers of death? Anyway, a lot of criticism I've seen seem petty, a big reach (OMG she used a plastic bag), or slightly unbelievable. Of the ones I heard the unbelievable ones are the ones that could carry weight- for example, she is looking to ban air travel. I doubt this but i''ll look into it.Quote:

Sure, Ocasio-Cortez may have had a voice, but she certainly did not single-handedly cause Jeff Bezos to annul his public declaration.
She may have sponsored the Green New Deal, but she is certainly not single-handedly going to get it through Congress (largely because it isn’t going to get through at all) And so what if she did?
She has made gaffes. Yup.
She rides cars. Yup.
She is young — can’t help that now, can she? And a woman. I guess she could do something about that.
She may even be stupid — who knows (other than Sluggo, who clearly has insider information)?
She was a bartender. So are lots of good folk (and bad).
Move on.
Why would her poking the establishment irritate you. I thought the trump crew was on an anti establishment binge...Quote:

They don't need a bad guy to exist, if there isn't one they make one up.Quote:
