Fox News host Jesse Watters asked former Bush deputy chief of staff Karl Rove about the possibility that Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., could make a run for the presidency in 2024.
On "Jesse Watters Primetime," Watters noted that Ocasio-Cortez portrays herself as a paragon of knowledge, most recently pertaining to the public's understanding of capitalism and socialism. He asked Rove his thoughts on whether the left-wing "Squad" member has a chance.
"This is way too wild … Wouldn't it be great if you were right? Because it would be such a fun campaign, and the Republicans would win overwhelmingly — even if they ran you or me, they'd win," Rove said. "She is not very bright at all."

Would Hispanic men vote for her? She would be an “exciting” candidate, but so would a rabid donkey.
The demoncraps got a decrepit babbling cadaver in the white hut, don’t discount AOC, she has tits which is a major tactical advantage. They sure ain’t gonna sell her on her brains.
Watch out when they ask themselves questions.
She has definitely had one too many Pan Galactic Gargle Blasters.
Sandy Cortez has no chance. She’s an immature, uneducated bartender.
Watters show is unwatchable - it is like a fake reality show
Watched the first 5 minutes on the first day - not been back
Dims can be so isolated that they think they can sell it by the MSM to the masses.
“She is not very bright at all.”
Her rise in political power has been unprecedented.
Dear God, Help us!!
It is completely within the bounds of possibility.
She is basically a hired actress playing the role of a Congressman. She does fairly well in public appearances and reliably follows the directions of her backers.
What's not to like?
Her backers.
Karl Rove, he’s that guy on Fox News that is always right about everything. Yeah, I believe AOC could be the 2024 nominee. Anything Karl says. He’s a frickin’ political genus.
I see what you did there.
I've said it before on this forum: you underestimate AOC at your own peril. She is a true believer in her own press and she knows how to get attention. If the dems could run an elderly dementia patient through a presidential primary, they could most certainly get someone like AOC through it. If you think she'd sink herself with gaffes, abrasive personality, no record to speak of, and a questionable grasp of the issues, remember that Biden challenged a voter to a push up contest and his son basically leaked selfie pictures of himself smoking crack to the media and he still got dragged over the line.
Rove had one trick up his sleeve, figure out how to carve out enough niche issues to sucker the votes needed to get to 271 in the electoral college and the rest didn't matter. It's really a terrible way of approaching national politics and an admission that you don't care about reaching or serving the entire country. It causes things like being beholden to lobbying groups and taking unprincipled but politically convenient stands for an electoral cycle, and it ultimately always fails. The sooner he's on a cruise ship with Bill Kristol and the hollowed out husk of the National Review advising democrats how to lose their elections the better.
Oh please, PLEASE run this dolt. She won’t be able to duck out of any debates and the folks in the heartland will finally get to see what complete and absolute total moron this woman is.
Karl Rove, aka “Lord Haw Haw’’.
How many charts did he present?
