So funny. Cruz tweeted “BTW, congrats on the science fair.”
This is what happens when you take the barkeep out of the bar.
That was funny. Ted Cruz will take her to the cleaners.
Looks funny but a bit too esoteric.
Who’s uncle Rico?
AOC = toad
When you are brain dead, do not go into a battle of wits unarmed.
Sandy!
That’s even more lame than the famous “science fair volcano”.
This broad is really really dumb.
At her age and scarcity of accomplishments, this is best she could offer.
“Ocasio-Cortez responded with a few insults..”
Bitch.
I give her full credit for keeping her youthful good-looks!
The main issue is that she never answered any of his questions. As usual, she avoided the topic and just clapped back with rudeness and a bit of tribalism. And her millennial supporters dont care because they have no idea how a real debate of ideas should work. Stating your credentials and spewing the equivalent of Youre so dumb. How do you dare question someone like me? is not an argument.
It’s my understanding she’s going to nominate Al Bundy to the Football Hall of Fame for his performance for the Polk High Panthers in the game where he caught 4 touchdown passes against Andrew Johnson High School.
Move over Johnny Unitas.
Ted Kennedy died 11 years ago. More than likely she was a HS senior in her LAST year of interning. I’m sure she had all kinds of important policy making jobs.
How dumb is she to so grossly embellish her CV when it is now stupid easy for anyone to check the veracity of her statements?
Her mustache is almost as thick as Uncle Rico’s!
Saw this earlier today. ROFL!
Was that her actual project?
Her first mistake was to engage in a battle of wits with Ted Cruz.
Her second mistake was to keep the conversation going.
Again, I’m going to play the nasty article/Twitter nanny. One of the worst things about all tweets is how other writers feel compelled to cut and paste them, often repeatedly, along with quoting them. This article abounds in that affliction with the abuse being equal, an abuse that renders it borderline unreadable. The better, far more readable, way to do it is to quote a tweet and add a link so the quote can checked. Then continue to write the article. That way the writer produces an article that flows and is easy to read and understand.
This is the way other writers do it. If a lawyer, for example, is writing a brief he or she will quote a relevant case, give a citation, and go on with the brief. He or she will not quote and cite the case and then include a direct physical copy in the brief.
That said, the interchange is interesting. She knows the significance of chromosomes in plants. The issue that she has to face is whether she will let the science of human chromosomes XX and XY and the inextricable connection to gender. Yes, there a couple of very rare variants, but the frequency is so low that it doesn't help the left’s agenda. I'd like to see how she handles this problem from a scientific point of view.
A second issue is that without civil discourse with a willingness to be data-driven, nothing changes. Ben Shapiro is right: Facts don't care about your feelings. Sadly, humans frequently hold on to conclusions not supported by the available data.
