Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez To Green New Deal Haters: ‘I’m The Boss. How ‘Bout That?’
The Daily Caller ^ | 02/24/19 | Jason Hopkins

Posted on 02/24/2019 9:20:03 PM PST by Simon Green

Speaking at a “Girls Who Code” event in New York City, self-identified democratic socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez hit back against critics of her Green New Deal resolution.

“I just introduced the Green New Deal two weeks ago, and it’s creating all of this conversation,” the New York Democratic congresswoman said Friday to moderator Reshma Saujani, the CEO of Girls Who Code. “Why? Because no one else has even tried. Because no one else has even tried.”

Ocasio-Cortez claimed that — regardless of success — the “power” goes to the individual who tries.

“So people are like, ‘Oh it’s unrealistic. Oh it’s vague. Oh it doesn’t address this little minute thing.’ And I’m like, ‘You try. You do it. ‘Cuz you’re not. ‘Cuz you’re not. So, until you do it, I’m the boss.’ How ’bout that?'”

With each utterance, she demonstrates that she truly is an idiot’s idiot.

She's not capable of talking without saying "I'm like". New York has elected an '80s teenager from the San Fernando Valley to Congress.

Only a few weeks in and she has completely imploded.

Pelosi won't be happy with this happy enchilada claiming to be boss.

I’m the boss?

well, that’s not a very socialist thing to say. Socialists have committees, not individuals.

Wow...I knew she was nuts, but now she thinks she's this guy?

At least they both suck.

I didn’t know ALL OF NEW YORK voted for her

You do know how the voting process works, right?

I mean it should be a requirement here.

And Alabama elected a dem senator and produced a sniveling AG.

Still love the state.

Try thinking more before a statement next time.

It’s fundamental.

Oh brother - she represents a district covering parts of the city of New York. She wasn't sent to Congress by Chicago or Milwaukee.

And not “ALL” of New York, nor even ALL of NYC voted for her! Actually, only 14%, or a bit less, of her gerrymandered district even turned out to vote and that included ILLEGAL ALIEN INVADERS voting!
