Socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: ‘tactics to defeat Nazi Germany can defeat global warming’
Watts Up With That ^ | October 20, 2018 | Anthony Watts

Posted on 10/20/2018 6:40:35 PM PDT by Trump_the_Evil_Left

From the occasionally used cortex department:

Democratic Socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said on Friday at a campaign event that the United States’ blueprint for beating global warming needs to be the same as the blueprint the U.S. used for defeating Nazi Germany in the 1940s.

“So we talk about existential threats, the last time we had a really major existential threat to this country was around World War II,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “And so we’ve been here before and we have a blueprint of doing this before.”

“None of these things are new ideas,” Ocasio-Cortez continued. “What we had was an existential threat in the context of a war. We had a direct existential threat with another nation, this time it was Nazi Germany, and axis, who explicitly made the United States as an enemy, as an enemy.”

What she misses is this inconvenient truth – a year after President Trump pulled out of the Paris Climate Accord, the USA is leading the world in reducing CO2 emissions while many of the other nations are breaking their promises to reduce emissions.

Cortez hired this young lady as her speech coach in order to prepare Cortez for the high-stakes, high-stress debate questions.

Maybe this time we can nuke a dozen or so major Chinese cities instead of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.That would solve the problem of China's absolutely filthy air,which represents two-thirds of the entire world's air pollution.

You might think I’m making this up but I’m not.

The President recently capitalized “Country” in a tweet.

So, today, the Democrat fools on Yahoo says this PROVES he cannot be trusted with the nuclear football.

Because, I guess they’re afraid he was on Caps Lock or something. Or hit the Shift key.

Yes. Or some variation of such.

And every day of the week they post nonsense like this. Over and over.

Anyone who votes Democrat is voting for a painful death of the United States of America at the hands of fools, idiots, moron, twits, illegals and criminals.

Apparently, the Nuclear Football has a Shift key and a Caps Lock key. Either one will launch all nuclear missiles if that key is pressed. I suppose the subs will fire too. And the bombers will take off from Whiteman and drop their bombs. It will be the end of civilization.

No wonder people hate Caps Lock!!!!!!!

Punctuation is important. Just ask the guy who wrote all of Obama’s books.

Well, she was a cute thing. Who obviously wasn’t ready for a question outside the box, LOL.

Cortez, however, is the future (and apparently, the present) of the Democratic Party.

Watching their “logic” is like watching an insane asylum full of inmates.

They feed off each other’s insanity.

Tell her the Solution is the same for both:

Nukes. And we need to spend all of that “Green Energy” money on nuclear research.

I don’t think she’d like this answer, but she’s the idiot who brought WWII up.

Nukes would have been used to defeat Nazi Germany if Hitler could have held on for 4 more months, because he would have nuked us if he could.

What do those beaches that our soldiers landed on during D Day like now?

I would assume the locals would be shocked if we launched a full scale assault on them.
