George F. Will: Ocasio-Cortez could learn a thing or two about socialism from Trump
SALT LAKE TRIBUNE ^ | 28 JULY 2018 | GEORGE WILL - WASHINGTON POST

Posted on 07/28/2018 8:44:04 PM PDT by Extremely Extreme Extremist

Washington • For three months in 1917, Leon Trotsky lived in the Bronx, just south of the congressional district where Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez recently defeated a 10-term incumbent in a Democratic primary. Because she calls herself a democratic socialist, the word “socialism” is thrilling progressives who hanker to storm the Bastille, if only America had one. And the word has conservatives darkly anticipating the domestic equivalent of the Bolsheviks storming St. Petersburg’s Winter Palace 101 years ago, if there is an equivalent building in the eastern Bronx and northern Queens. Never mind that only about 16,000 voted for Ocasio-Cortez’s version of “Arise, ye prisoners of starvation!”

Adblock locked out. No text access allowed by the Salt Lake Tribune.
Hope they go bankrupt denying access to their web site, hope Wills goes bankrupt trying to “sell” his hatred of trump to his ABCNNBCBS national socialist press corpse so they will allow him on air.

What nerve this prick has to call the president a socialist. Will and his globalist buddies gave us the massive trade deficits. These gloBULList neoCONS like Will gave away the store and sold the US down the river. He and these all talk, do nothing CONservatives laid down like dogs to the Democrats and their gloBULList masters!

What's the word I'm looking for?

Oh yeah. Putz.

Mr. Will considers himself the elder statesman of conservatism. He's used to everyone genuflecting to his every editorial as he guides Republicans with this wisdom to 'see the light'.

Along comes Trump who couldn't care less what Mr. Will has to say.

Mr. Will is now facing his own irrelevancy.

With ever editorial Mr. Will is screaming, 'Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain! I am the Great and All Powerful OZ!'

George Will was part of the ruling elite class. Oddly philosophically he shares much in common with Trump. Trump has circumvented the ruling elite and thus they hate him. They must destroy Trump to regain their power. The same can be said for the RINOs in Congress.

George Will is a gusano! In Spanish that means worm but its literal translation means a contemptible slimy thing that needs to be stepped on. It is really a hell of an insult. In South America or Mexico if you call someone a gusano violence will soon occur.

George Will is a gusano!

George is a little man and the original Keebler Elf. He hates president Trump so much because he knows he can't measure up to a real man. The president gets this reaction from the all talk no action, do nothing political asshole brigade in DC. The president is a real man who likes to mix it up and get results. This is too much for the anal retentive crowd.

Will is one who divides our side but the left is united 100% for tax increases, stifling of conservative speech,censorship of the internet for anyone on the right,and all the PC causes.

Our side is balkanized due to small minded twerps and gusanos as you called him. The left doesn’t have a McCain,Flake,Ryan,Mcconnell, et al. They hopefully will with Clinton vs. Sanders and Ocasio soon. Maybe.

Thanks for the new vocabulary word gusano. I can use it for the guy who had “Turn off Fox News” and the “Resist” or “Impeach Trump” bumper sticker types. As you said I’ll be ready for the physical stuff if I do.

Maybe just sabotage behind their backs. Better to be safe. Or wait for Sessions to do something. It’s late and I’m rambling.

George Will has spent a lifetime conflating fussiness with conservatism.
