What do Democrats see in Ocasio-Cortez?

[Zanting]

Deep thoughts with Ocasio-Cortez....

"Bread goes in, toast comes out. Where does the bread go?"

"My thermos keeps my coffee hot and my iced tea cold. How does it know?"

"Trump offered me the ambassadorship to Mars. I was flattered, but I told him I'd rather it be a planet in our solar system."

"If Endgame is the end all, be all, shouldn't it be the last Marvel movie?"

"Why do lawyers have to be members of a bar? I mean, what if they don't drink?"

"I'm so good I can tell when they don't use real dinosaurs in the movies."

This seems to be a pretty good representation of Trump supporters. Where's the dig at Ocasio-Cortez?

Laughing at projection, you betcha.

So you're looking in a mirror?

 

[Queller]

LOL!
Yeah, as if that's what society, the MSM, the police and lawyers automatically think when a black gay guy is "attacked" by a couple white guys yelling, "This is MAGA country". In case you forgot, I already showed you that the police were investigating it as a hate crime from the very beginning.

The case against Jussie Smollett has taken several shocking twists and turns since the Empire actor first told police he had been the victim of a vicious hate crime nearly two months ago. Prosecutors Just Dropped All Charges Against Jussie Smollett. Here's a Full Timeline of His Case

Read the others as well if you want variety, even though I'm referencing only liberal sources, which seems to pass for "diversity" these days:

But continue making excuses for the guy if that's what's desirable.

So what "hate crime" was investigated and where is it in the criminal code?

Good grief! Just stop already. Quit trying to defend a guy who is obviously a liar and wasted $130,000 of taxpayer money and manpower to investigate something (a hate crime allegation) he made up at the expense of others.

I just listed two. She lied about the apartment in the Bronx,

No she didn't. She lives and works in the Bronx.

and that the sudden shift to southern black draw was her "accent her entire life"

Switching to a different accent when you're around different people is not a "lie". I act differently around some friends than I act with others. That's how human beings are.

If this is the smoking gun against AOC, a bunch of poorly-sourced malarkey whining about her address and dancing videos, well....she should be fine.

Stop lying and accusing me of something I'm not doing. Nowhere have I attempted to defend Smollett in any way, shape, or form.

I get that you can't answer what should be a simple question and you have to deflect as much as possible to prevent people from realizing that, but lying about my actions doens't help you at all.

I'll ask you again:

I seriously doubt that the opposition of one 29 year old first year Representative was the deciding factor in Amazon changing its plans!

Apparently, the right wing media have designated AOC as the "Great Satan."

So they understandably want to give her more influence than she actually has.

The reason they point out the things she says and does is because it helps people to see what the people who voted for her got for their vote, and to learn a lesson from it. If they don't want to learn that lesson, then it helps everyone else understand the values of the party and position she stands for.

That seems to be working for the democrats WRT Trump. But then in her case, I think they voted for her, because of it; she was talking a lot about all of this before she was elected.

If they don't want to learn that lesson

They seem to already know. Unlike most politicians, she's doing pretty much what she told voters she would do.

then it helps everyone else understand the values of the party and position she stands for.

Democrats hope so.

Hahaha! Then I hope she just keeps doing what she's been doing. Dems Turn on Each Other After Amazon Debacle, Ocasio-Cortez at the Center of It All

 

[The Barbarian]

Hahaha! Then I hope she just keeps doing what she's been doing.

It's what her voters sent her to Congress to do. As you may have noticed, a lot of voters, last time around, kicked out politicians who promised things they couldn't deliver. I think that's what we'll see next time, too.

Great. so where in the criminal code is the "hate crime" they were investigating?

 

[JLB777]

The news media loves and so do a lot of Democrats. But why? She recently cost NY $24.5 billion in tax revenue and 143,000 jobs over 10 years as her and others got Amazon to scuttle plans for HQ2 in Long Island City.

Her Green Deal is a joke that would cost $53-93 trillion over 10 years.

She's basically a 15 watt bulb in a socket that requires 100 watts.

Why is the news media making such a big deal over her? I don't get it.

She is an actor, hired by a socialist group to parrot their agenda.

 

[Aldebaran]

Ask those who were investigating it as a hate crime. For the sources of who they are, I kindly refer you back to post #388.

You're the one claiming that a hate crime is a specific crime. You keep calling it that, you tell me what crime they were investigating.

I'll let the investigators themselves tell you. Best to get the information about investigations from the investigators themselves, isn't it? Here ya go (again):
