Ocasio-Cortez: I’ll be d*mned if democrats take the “middle of the road” in 2020.

On Monday, during a rally held by the controversial Sunrise Movement, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY, 14) expressed that she refuses to allow the Democratic Party to nominate a “middle of the road” candidate in 2020.

“I’ll be d*mned if the same politicians who refused to act (in past decades) are going to try to come back today and say we need a ‘middle of the road’ approach to save our lives,” Ocasio-Cortez declared.

Ocasio-Cortez remarks come just after former Vice President Joe Biden expressed that democrats need to find “middle ground” on climate change policy, as reported by Reuters.

The freshman congresswoman has described climate change as being “our World War II” and also predicted that the “world is going to end in 12 years” literally, if global warming is not addressed.

“She sure has a lot of wisdom considering her only other job was making margaritas in a NYC bar.”

Can you believe it? She is stupid, but not as stupid as those who give her the time of day.

"Good, Good."

Don't compromise on the New Green Deal, abolishment of ICE, socialist medicine, or the abolition of conventional energy.

Be honest in your intentions, and let us decide, rather than playing the typical Democrat game of dissimulation.

She may say some stupid things and have stupid positions, but you can't say she isn't dominating the news.

She's "dominating the news" because Big Media has made a conscious, collective decision to give her air time and column-inches. They manufactured her, and they're manufacturing her importance. Big Media is Fake News, all the time.

No doubt the fake news is pushing her, but she is also making news with her outrageous statements.

I get most of my news from solid, conservative print sources and she is getting plenty of coverage.

She is news because she is pushing the envelope for the communist effort in the U.S.

She is the face of the enemy. We ignore her at our peril.

She is a b*tch fascist. The only “good” fascists are...This country may very well soon see a reckoning if the left gains full power again.

She’s Barack 0bama with tits. Totally a Big Media creation. “Solid conservative print sources” still tend to be derivative of Big Media, same as discussion on FR.

I never said she wasn’t dangerous. Quite the contrary ... but she’s dangerous because the communist establishment, through Big Media, is using her as a tool. She’ll become nothing, in an instant, if she ceases to be useful.

Big media didn't create Obama, it merely launched him and then supported him.

He was/is a creation of the communist party.

Same for AOC.

The media along with academia and entertainment have been thorough indoctrinated/brainwash so that they do the bidding of the communists.

The big media is, like AOC, a tool.

I disagree that the communists have a meaningful influence in the discussion at FR if by that you mean that they influence us in favor of their position (as a as a derivative of big media or otherwise).

It’s funny what true leftists believe where the middle of the road is located.

I was thinking Star Trek too. The scene where Spock is saying, slowly: “Good. Gooood....”

She needs to get with the Dems SOP...

Run/campaign from the middle (lie), move to the left after elected.

They have been doing this for decades!

Let's hope those wax wings of hers remain solid as she continues her ascent to the sun

...until...
