Ocasio-Cortez Meets With Progressive Caucus Lawmakers in DC
Newsmax ^ | 7/25/18 | Joe Crowe

Posted on 07/29/2018 1:58:38 PM PDT by Libloather

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who scored an upset victory in a congressional primary over Rep. Joseph Crowley, D-N.Y., in June, visited lawmakers in Washington, D.C. on Tuesday

**SNIP**

The candidate held separate meetings with Reps. Raul Grijalva, D-Ariz., and Mark Pocan, D-Wis., and had lunch with Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., the report said.

Ocasio-Cortez said that her visit was designed to "get the lay of the land" in Washington. She is widely expected to win in her heavily Democratic New York district in the November election, the report said.

She is on board to "translating" her win to help other Democrats around the country, she told The Hill.

She has healthy teeth. Much healthier than she would have if she live in the kind of socialist kakistocracy she claims to support.

Speaking of narcissists,
remember that Obama one term Senator mob organizer used to say
with teleprompter: I visualize that we must become the change that we want to see around us.

without teleprompter: I want to win all 53 states of this union.

-—Make no mistake, this woman is being set up by the deep state to be the Dems candidate in 2020. Little things like age restriction don’t matter to them.

I fear she is the one they envisage finally destroying the Constituion and launching FEMA camps——

Oh’ please....she hasn’t even won a congressional seat yet...

2020 run for POTUS ? ...LOL

Is the Dem deep state really as excited about her running as the MSM makes her out to be? They remember the demands Hitlery made when she got to DC. She wanted many privileges that went with seniority. Incumbent Senate Dems didn’t give her any of the big ones but I think she did get some small ones she didn’t earn.

I think deep down, they don’t want her as she’ll force all Dems to stop pretending to be centrist or moderate. She’ll drag the party into far, far leftist barking moonbatism.

Lol Family Guy <3

Way Bigger Jaws!

I don’t think anybody is gonna be getting that shark by the boat though. Those are some pretty damn big jaws, and could probably easily eat Regular Jaws from the first movie, but maybe not 3-D Jaws.

Not only to Joe Crowley on the WFP line, but if by some mysterious miracle she loses to Anthony Pappas on the Republican line! MSM heads would totally explode!

It's astonishing how the MSM have exposed themselves as unrepentant Leftists with the primary win of this chick in a hard core Dem district ... she hasn't accomplished anything other than beating an old white guy leftist, but yet they're now hailing her as the second-coming of Karl Marx !!!

Go get the Popcorn :)

Would anyone here believe that Ocasio-Cortez “graduated fourth in her class from Boston University’s College of Arts and Sciences in 2011 with a bachelor’s degree in economics and international relations”?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandria_Ocasio-Cortez#Early_life_and_education

From Ocasio’s recent TV and campaign appearances and interviews, she doesn’t seem to know the first thing about ether economics or international relations!!!!

What’s going on here? Enquiring minds want to know!!!!
