Be Afraid, Be Very Afraid: Progressive Insiders Want Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to Run for President
PJ Media ^ | 29 Dec 2019 | Michael Van Der Galien

Posted on 12/29/2019 7:22:42 PM PST by Rummyfan

This is downright frightening: according to leftwing website Politico, progressive insiders and activists "are increasingly whispering about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez inheriting the movement one day -- and running for the White House with it behind her."

We on the right love to laugh at Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, or AOC as she's also known. She's a fool. She favors policies that America can't even almost afford. She's so radically pro-open borders that she'll destroy the Democratic Party's chances of winning next year if she becomes one of its most vocal spokespeople.

However, there is a major problem: progressive activists and other kinds of leftwing radicals are starting to push her to play a more prominent role in national politics. See this article at Politico.com for example. In it, some (purposefully chosen) leftist activists and "insiders" are interviewed, all of whom say that AOC is the future of their movement -- and, they hope, of the Democratic Party.

Sure she's an idiot. But so is Bernie Sanders and he attracts a lot of voters. It's downright frightening how stupid a lot of people are.

She’s attractive and incoherent. An ideal progressive darling. Tics the female and minority boxes.

I know she could win.

She’s attractive

In an equine sort of way.

Will she be 35 in 2024? Not sure when her birthday is. Even if she isn’t eligible to run for POTUS by then, she’ll be around for the long run. Guarantee it. She’s gotten a taste of what it means to be a politician which usually means you get to be ultra-rich while claiming you hate rich people. It also means that while the peons pay taxes, those taxes go toward ensuring the politicians a posh lifestyle through kickbacks, etc.

Alexandria zero-cortez will make LOTS of money in the end. Guaranteed.

Oh good grief. Why don’t they just import Jeremy Corbyn so we can get this over with.

She could have easily been a Hollywood star. I don't know why she didn't shop that video of her dancing to talent scouts.

Rosario Dawson was literally sitting on her front porch and was discovered by an agent.

She’d pull a good 75%-80% of the vote in Cambridge, MA.

It helped enormously having 2 “Republican” opponents who were there to make sure Zero won both times.

Perfect one to split the D ticket when she’s eligible to run

Cambridge would vote 90% for Satan as long as he ran on the Demonrat line and Jesus would get 10% as a Republican, if that.

She barely ticks the minority checkbox. She's a Westchester-raised, Boston-educated, wealthy Puerto Rican who grew up named Sandy. She lacks street-cred and isn't considered genuine by the hard left racial separatists - much like Booker and Kamala.

Sbe won’t be eligible for 6 more years which means 2028 campaign.

She’ll flame out by then and a new young twerp will be in the spotlight by then.

But will she get to speak at the national convention in prime time in 2020?

I think she'll be forever reelected in her ridiculously left district in Queens, but she'll go nowhere further. She's too leftist and too stupid.

She'll grow wealthy and fat in the same seat for decades.
