DNC chair: Ocasio-Cortez represents the 'future of our party'

By Aris Folley - 07/03/18 04:35 PM EDT

Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chairman Tom Perez said Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez represents the “future of our party” on Tuesday.

"I have three kids. Two of them are daughters — one just graduated college, one who is in college. And they were both texting me about their excitement over Alexandria because she really — she represents the future of our party," Perez said on "The Bill Press Show."

Ocasio-Cortez, a 28-year-old self-proclaimed democratic socialist and organizer with Sen. Bernie Sanders's (I-Vt.) presidential campaign, rose to fame after defeating incumbent Rep. Joseph Crowley (D) in a stunning primary upset last week.

Crowley was the No. 4 House Democrat and seen as a potential Speaker.

Perez on Tuesday added that he had "great respect" for Crowley, calling him a “good Democrat” who “fought the good fight."

According to the national media, the Democratic Party has a very bright future, with Ms. Pelosi headed back to the Speaker’s chair in January.

Pinochet saved Chile; then the U.S. turned on him.

Yes, she represents “more chronic dishonesty”. She’ll fit right in. This chronic liar grew up in Westchester county (one of the richest in the USA). She left the Bronx when she was 5. Liar...liar...socialist loser panties on fire.

What’s the difference between a Democrat-Socialist and a Communist?

A Communist wants to take all your stuff and tell you that it’s for the Good of the State.

A Democrat-Socialist wants to take all your stuff and tell you that it’s for your own good.

Open borders, socialism, and confiscation, that is.

Probably true. But not something Tom should be boasting about.

"Pretty much. Hollywood and the liberal media are brain-washing as many as they can. It’s astounding.

Teachers...! Don't forget the teachers... Most of the kids are coming out with mush for brains...….

"Collectivists have two means of takeover: votes or violence. If they can’t do it one way, they’ll do the other."

I guess we better get ready to defend ourselves.... It's very reminiscent of the Bolshevik Revolution...(?)

"Ocasio-Cortez represents the 'future of our party'"

Oh! Oh! Yes! I really do hope she becomes the new face of the Democrat Party!

And please please please let her give the next Dem Response to Trump's State of the Union. I can just hear it now.....

"Free health care for all! The taxpayers have plenty of extra $$ to cover it!"

"Forgive all 5 trillion dollars in student loans! The taxpayers have plenty of extra $$ to cover it!"

"Guaranteed jobs for everyone, whether they decide to show up for work or not! The taxpayers have plenty of extra $$ to cover it!"

"Abolish ICE, tear down the few miles of wall that now exist, completely open the border, and send government planes to Central America to give free rides here to anyone who claims they're a "refugee," and issue them voting cards, driver's licenses and pointers to all the free government womb-to-tomb bennies they so richly deserve! The taxpayers have plenty of extra $$ to cover it!"

"Confiscate ALL the guns, and make the gunowners pay for the costs of the confiscation & destruction!"

Lefties - you just HAVE to trust that having her as the New Face of your Party ("party" as in "party hard! party like there's no tomorrow!") will guarantee that Blue Wave you are so desperately scanning the horizon for.
