Ocasio-Cortez on discovering garbage disposals: ‘It is terrifying’
MarketWatch ^ | 05/07/2019 | Shawn Langlois

Posted on 05/07/2019 8:40:50 AM PDT by AngelesCrestHighway

Ocasio-Cortez has previously been criticized for transparent attempts at cultivating her image as a poor girl from the Bronx. Newsmax host John Cardillo called her out last year for misleading the American people about her childhood. He tweeted this picture of her childhood home in Yorktown Heights, saying it’s “a far cry from the Bronx hood upbringing she’s selling”: The New York Democrat, never one to shy away from a Twitter feud, fired back, explaining how her mother scrubbed toilets so they could afford to live in that modest home, which apparently didn’t have a garbage disposal. “I grew up seeing how the zip code one is born in determines much of their opportunity,” she said in a tweeted response. “Your attempt to strip me of my family, my story, my home, and my identity is exemplary of how scared you are of the power of all four of those things.” As for her latest Instagram stream, the 29-year-old congresswoman couldn’t resist tossing a little jab across the aisle: “All you people telling me to reach in and grab whatever’s there are just Republicans trying to test my health insurance,” she said. “I’m onto you.”

From AOC ~ ‘I am told this is a garbage disposal. I’ve never seen a garbage disposal. I never had one in any place I’ve ever lived. It is terrifying. I don’t know what it’s for, or what its purpose is. Like, food scraps? Like, is this environmentally sound?’... and this chuckle head is running for president??????

Just like many things her only experience with one is probably movies and tv. So yeah, to see people sucked down the kitchen sink drain is scary to her.

No, they don’t. They’re not legal in NYS.

You can’t tell me she isn’t scripted. She has people all around her telling her what to say. Sometimes she remembers her lines and other times she goes off into space. Twitter? Who is watching it and typing up her tweets for her? Who needs jokes about blonds anymore?

The only thing that this tells me is that this spoiled snowflake has never done the dishes in all of her 29 years. Incredible!

She knows the best way to run the world but is perplexed, stunned, baffled by a garbage disposal. All the answers except the simple ones.

She knows what a garbage disposal is. It’s just another example of her intentionally saying stupid so she can play the victim when called out on it.

Cortez may have the intellect of a mentally-challenged gnat, but she can recognize something that poses a direct threat to her ideas.

The favorite is “...pompous twit...”

Even though she is not running for president at the present time (look for it if we get a future), “...chuckle head..” is now added to the list!

Thanx!!!

I grew up on Long Island and Manhattan with extended family around the tristate area.

Garbage disposals are not a thing in New York. The plumbing systems were not built for them

That’s all

She is a classic example of what academia is producing nowadays. Mindless, stupid, ignorant and USELESS. And given the crap she is coming out with, it speaks for itself.
