Cortez says Fox News is now 'AOC TMZ,' blames conservative network for unfavorable poll
Newsweak ^ | 3/17/19 | JESSICA KWONG

Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Saturday called Fox News “AOC TMZ” and blamed the conservative network for her poor favorability rating in a new poll.

A Gallup poll released Friday showed that more Americans, 41 percent, viewed her unfavorably than favorably (31 percent). Her unfavorably rating climbed up from 26 percent in September, while her favorability rating also increased from 24 percent, meaning her net favorability dropped from -2 percentage points to -10 percentage points.

Ocasio-Cortez responded by tweeting that she has net favorable ratings from women, people ages 18 to 34 and people who are not white.

“If you want to know what subconscious bias looks like, it’s a headline saying ‘AOC is underwater with every group EXCEPT women, nonwhites, and 18-34 year olds,’” she tweeted. “So older, conservative white men are considered “everyone” and everyone else is discounted as an exception. Cool.”

Most people wake up in the morning thinking “I gotta pee”. AOC evidently wakes up thinking “I gotta speak!”.

A dozen left-wing whore media endorse AOC, report her every utterance, and laud her as the Queen of Brooklyn. That's not what accounts for her "popularity" though. But when Fox occasionally criticizes her for being a bug-eyed bimbo, her decline is solely due to their hostility.

Got it.

I think this is more the outcome of the Democrat Party hierarchy being so focused on their own power and profit, for so long, that they never bothered to mold any “suitable” successors. They allowed the feral, Red Guard socialists to develop at the local offices while they were safe inside the Beltway, and now they have no control over them...but it’s all they have.

If the old guard had any “acceptable” young faces to put in the game, they’d be promoting them instead of tired old clowns like Biden. But for the most part, and in the numbers needed...they just don’t.

She's a rabid, godless, dim witted, COMMUNIST who literally HATES America, Americans, everything we hold dear as a nation and people, and her goal is to turn us into Venezuela!

THAT is why A-O-COMMUNIST has been, is and will continually be rejected by the overwhelming majority of AMERICAN CITIZENS.

“Ocasio-Cortez responded by tweeting that she has net favorable ratings from women, people ages 18 to 34 and people who are not white.”

What a racist, sexist, and ageist remark. Look for a bill to make unfavorable polls of protected classes illegal.

Dear Sandy,
The only person who thinks you’re that important, is you.
May I suggest you shut up, and listen for a while?

AOC is an Air Force acronym for Air (& Space) Operations Center. I cringe every time others appropriate this term for that twit. I’m a “Plank owner” of America’s AOC at Tyndall AFB.

She is Cortez, the Conquistador: Murderer of the Aztecs.

In AOC words....”.........everyone else is discounted as an exception.”...….

She is definitely an exception, who in their right mind would have ever voted for that arrogant twit?

“...favorably (31 percent)....”

That’s what is terrifying.

Wonder how 34 year olds like being lumped in with 18 year olds?

Should be obvious to any American.

She has hatred. Her expressions make her hatred obvious

That she was elected is what is most disturbing

While I appreciate your disdain for the misappropriation of the acronym, AOC - I am wont to point out, in spite of your condemnation of Cortez, that the Aztecs were anything but “pure as the wind-driven snow.” They too were murdering butchers, who practiced human sacrifice - and did so on a scale so great, that to this day the blood stains are impossible to wash from the altar stone on which they performed their barbaric ritual.

The difference between Cortez and the Aztecs was a matter of method, not degree. Wiping out the Aztec civilization was not much worse than the Hebrews wiping out the Canaanites - or, by the same justification, The USMC wiping out ISIS. As the old saying goes - “Some people just need killin.”

I don’t think so. I think the democrat party has new leaders. Ayoc and the Islamist are absolutely fearless. That indicates to me the people who think they are in charge, like Speaker Nancy, really aren’t and are in for a rude awakening.

She’s an actress, albeit a poor one, whose performance is a script having its origin with the Justice Democrats - a project of Cenk Uygur, founder of The Young Turks.

Good to know it’s not just me! This new trend of speed talking, nasal, whine, is irritating, at least. I immediately hit the off button, when I hear it.
Seems like more and more of them are doing it, but I wish they’d stop!

Sadly you are correct and if left unchecked, more avowed communists just like her and the rabid, anti-American Muslims will be elected, infect the body politic, gain “acceptance”, control the powers of government, and pass, enact and enforce “laws” and policies specifically designed to attack and undermine law abiding American citizens and destroy the country from within.

Oops, that’s “direct face shots of her...”

Actually Coyote, it works either way. . .
