I can accept that AOC’s problem is not lack of intelligence.
Her actual problem is ignorance. Ignorance about economics, ignorance about the Constitution, ignorance about International Relations, and ignorance about garbage disposals.
I should have read the whole article before I posted the above reply.
My bad.
Nope is actually just dumb.
AOC does NOT have a degree in economics.
Also the problem is that the doofuses who follow this moron are some of the dumbest people alive.
“Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is not a stupid woman”
Au contraire Pierre!
“...she has no understanding of what a metaphors other forms of figures of speech actually are.”
Wut?
She is shut off from real life and truth by her dogma.
Ahh, yes she is.
Fake news.
She really is as stupid as she sounds when she opens her mouth.
The writer goes on to say:
...what so often gets her into trouble and gives her an image of stupidity is her magnificent, uncorrupted level of abject ignorance
Summary: she IS stupid and, for an econ major, if I were Boston University, I would ask for my diploma back. She's an economic idiot.
“Cortez is what happens when universities convince simple-minded fools that they’re intellectuals by giving them good grades for carrying the Marxist water:”

This is the first time I’ve heard that. I poked around and found this article to be the most informative:
https://www.redstate.com/jenvanlaar/2019/04/02/aoc-really-economics-degree-boston-university/
Looks like she double-majored at Boston University, in International Relations and Economics.
Do you have a more definitive source?
AOC on America’s rags-to-riches ideal: “It’s a physical impossibility to lift yourself up by a bootstrap, by your shoelaces? It’s physically impossible. The whole thing is a joke.”
Anyone who would make a statement like this, believing it literally is just not very intelligent.
We have something at our office that we call “THE BOOK” of famous company sayings. If someone makes a stupid statement on the trading floor, we will say, there’s one for the book.
For example, here are a few direct quotes:
“Don’t bark up a tree that won’t let you climb it”
“Don’t beat a dead bush”
“I got one thing to say, JUST SELL”
“Who do you call to fill up your well?”
“John: Its my night to bring beer, I will bring two 12 packs.
Ed: Why don’t you case bring a case?”
John: “No, we can hardly even drink two 12 packs”
“Jen: Wow, you sold a railcar to Hawaii. How did you get it there?”
“Sean: “Over the bridge”
“ Jen, wow, I did not know there was a bridge to Hawaii”
Yet, all these people are very successful commodity traders.
After Joe Biden said he received a gut punch in Iowa, AOC demanded that whoever did it be prosecuted.
I thought that was against FR rules.
True Dat.
There is a Millennial woman(26) who sits nest to me at work.
She follows AOC on Instagram. She thinks she is awesome.
This is the same person who loves Taylor Swift and watches the Grammys, loved JLo’s Super Bowl halftime performance.
She is not very smart. She is what we call here in NH a typical annoying Masshole.
She is a Democrat voter.
