Ocasio-Cortez Meets With Progressive Caucus Lawmakers in DC
Newsmax ^ | 7/25/18 | Joe Crowe

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who scored an upset victory in a congressional primary over Rep. Joseph Crowley, D-N.Y., in June, visited lawmakers in Washington, D.C. on Tuesday

**SNIP**

The candidate held separate meetings with Reps. Raul Grijalva, D-Ariz., and Mark Pocan, D-Wis., and had lunch with Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., the report said.

Ocasio-Cortez said that her visit was designed to "get the lay of the land" in Washington. She is widely expected to win in her heavily Democratic New York district in the November election, the report said.

She is on board to "translating" her win to help other Democrats around the country, she told The Hill.

House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer, D-Md., said that he encouraged Ocasio-Cortez to help Democrats win back control of the House of Representatives in the midterm elections. "I urged her to work towards that end, and I think she has an understanding that everybody does not have the district she has," Hoyer said, The Hill reported.

The little socialist takes out the #4 House RAT because she's got all the answers to every problem? I'm thinking something will backfire somewhere along her journey, if it hasn't already.

They will not dare let her get onto a serious debate with a challenger.

I thought the district demographics had gone Puerto Rican and they voted for the Puerto Rican girl instead of the old White guy. Did the voters actually vote for the policy or the skin color?

She’s blatantly an idiot. Not in the usual way that the other RATS are idiots - Occasional-Kotex can’t even hold a conversation she’s so flippin’ stupid.

What an embarrassment to have this self-important little twit in a position of power in our government. Is there some way we can get rid of California and make them take some of these rancid Eastern states with them?

I’ve not seen such fawning over an unelected lightweight since the coverage of Obozzo’s speech at the Dems 2004 convention.

Make no mistake, this woman is being set up by the deep state to be the Dems candidate in 2020. Little things like age restriction don’t matter to them.

I fear she is the one they envisage finally destroying the Constituion and launching FEMA camps

I can see now why some are calling her the new voice of the Demon-rat party. At least in this photo, there is a strong resemblance to a donkey, IMHO.

She’s Hank “Tip” Johnson level stupid. So there is a little precedent (and Sheila Lee Jackson, a few more).

I gotta say that the donkey is considerably more adorable and far less frightening than that grinning human female thing.

Oh I hope so. I will have popcorn ready for the Youtube videos. They will be awesome. This dim-bulb couldn’t think her way out of a paper sack.

In fact, she should have been in “Sack Lunch” with Dabney Coleman.

Don’t tell Danny Glover or Sean Penn!

Venezuela is a liberal paradise.

Except to the poor people starving down there.
