The Democrats have morphed, into a steady parade of kooks and crackpots. It becomes harder and harder to take them seriously.
How can we take Ocasio-Cortez seriously? She has a degree in economics but doesn’t even know how the unemployment rate is calculated. She has said many off the wall things. She’s said that since we only have 12 years before life as we know it ends, we aren’t allowed to talk about the cost of the green new deal.
She has said that Medicare for all gets paid for in part, by all the savings on funeral expenses, since people will not die in the same numbers, as when we achieve the Nirvana of Medicare for all.
She thinks the tax benefits proposed for Amazon to locate in New York, can now be spent upgrading the subway since the Amazon deal was jettisoned. Someone with an economics degree should know better than to make a statement which displays such ignorance of how these tax incentives work.
Her statements are so obviously extremely stupid that I’m beginning to wonder if she’s just pandering to her base because she figures they’ll believe it yet she really knows better.
She really said that fewer funerals would pay for everyone getting medicare???? OMG!
The thing about her is she’s too stupid to be embarrassed by her stupidity.

You should take them extremely seriously, Communists are well known for killing people by the millions.
