AOC

[DoggyDaddy]

She's not a member of the party elite - she's their problem child.


I don't doubt she lives in a small apartment with minimal furniture, but I have no doubt that she's also using that for political gain.

A small apartment with probably about a $10K per month rent given that it's in DC.

 

[actaeon277]

Even though she makes $174,000 a year, she doesn't get it all at once.

 

[Dr.Midnight]

$174,000 divided by 52 equlas $3,346.15 per week. I don't feel sorry for her.

Well, I don't feel sorry for her either.
But, apartments aren't cheap in DC.
And doesn't she have to maintain a residence in her district? Also not cheap.

So, 174,000 on the east coast is not a lot of money.

She sits on at least I committee and that is again money on top of her base salary.

 

[d.kaufman]

She isn't worth more than at taxpayer expense in my opinion. But that holds true for roughly 90% of politicians

 

[Leadeye]

She's a vote in the US House of Representatives. To euro merchant bankers, saudi royals, chinese manufacturers, law/lobby firms etc. etc. etc. she's worth her weight in gold.

 

[MCgrease08]

Apparently she speaks jive now too.

She tried to do a black accent today in front of a room full of black folks. Apparently it didn't go over too well afterwords, and rightly so.

Well, I actually agree that there's nothing wrong with holding those jobs.
But, she needs to look towards her Party for a lot of the job shaming.

 

[Ziggidy]

She's pathetic......

 

[Dr.Midnight]

I watched a portion of her speech. I especially liked when she talked about studying Dr. King. Are you ******* kidding me! This is the same woman that couldn't identify the three branches of government, thought Presidential term limits were enacted to stop FDR from being elected again, and thought a three billion dollar tax break for Amazon was cash in a ******* pile somewhere. The people that support her have to be the dumbest individuals God ever put breath into.

 

[KMaC]

She's really turning up the hyperbole while huckstering the New Green Deal to the crowd at an Al Sharpton event. I'm gonna have to take another look at the GND cause she says it will cure the world's ills.

She told the crowd at the National Action Network convention that such a generational attitude was the “underpinning” of a list of policies that include health care for all, free public college -- and reparations to black Americans for slavery.
“That is the moral political and economic underpinning of making bold investments and dignified jobs because that is the necessary plan to fix the pipes in Flint [Michigan] and clean the air in the South Bronx, and create unionized energy jobs for transitioning workers in Appalachia and West Virginia, for single-payer health care and Medicare-for-all and tuition-free public colleges and universities to prepare our nation for the future, and for the end of mass incarceration, the war on drugs, examining and pursuing an agenda of reparations and fixing the opioid crisis too,” she said.

 

[drm-hp]

I would say this is a hoax, but WOW.

 

[Mongo59]

If she wants to put her powers to work let her be the "Queen of Parking Garages in Mogadishu" or something of equal value. Just as long as it isn't here...

 

[Ziggidy]

I would say this is a hoax, but WOW.

She's a plant, actress to distract from the real shenanigans that are going on. She is doing a great job; but the act is starting to get boring.

 

[spec4]

My money is on having Tammany Hall (modern equivalent) getting rid of her in 2020. Her district can only hold so many whack job liberals which dilutes her overall value to the left. Especially if Trump takes it in 2020.

On the other hand, if Trump loses and we get some goof like O'Rourke or Harris, she will become a liberal icon.

 

[2A_Tom]

I would think that there will be a better primary turnout in her district in 2020.

Spit warning: Do not take a sip while watching this! If you do, the cleanup is all yours.

AOC back from the future.
