‘Her heart is not in The Bronx’: Ocasio-Cortez’s constituents turn against her
NY Post ^ | March 30, 2019 | Isabel Vincent

Posted on 04/01/2019 7:38:09 AM PDT by COUNTrecount

Amid her zeal to save the world with the Green New Deal, Rep. ­Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has ­ignored residents in her own Bronx back yard.

“I thought AOC would be our savior, but that’s not the case,” complained Roxanne Delgado, a local activist who said she has tried for months to get in touch with the congresswoman for help saving an animal shelter and to clean up parks in the district.

Delgado, 40, says she has made numerous calls to Ocasio-Cortez’s offices in Washington and Queens and sent a barrage of tweets after the freshman lawmaker encouraged residents during a recent visit to a Bronx public library to hit her up on social media.

But she’s heard nothing back.

“NO email or contact on @AOC’s page except DC number which has full #voicemail and no one picks up,” Delgado tweeted on Monday.

The Post made several calls to both the Washington and Queens offices last week. The same recording at both numbers gives Ocasio-Cortez’s Web site and doesn’t allow a caller to leave a message.

Didn’t like only 10% in her district even bother to vote?

Was it possibly 4%. I recall it was very low.

No surprise. She cares about herself, not her constituents.

Perhaps Delgado should organize the local community to clean up the parks.

Has she written a book yet?

For her, it would have to be a colouring book.

No there was a GOP candidate. They would have put up someone better if they knew she was going to be running. If she gets the nomination again, they will.

She has her eyes on the national stage now that the establishment media has made her a rising star. The Bronx never really mattered to this empty-headed girl who was raised in the affluent suburbs. Just like New York never really mattered to Hillary Clinton who was born and raised in the affluent Chicago suburbs. It was just a stepping stone to the national stage.

“I thought AOC would be our savior”

‘Put not your trust in kings.’ Shakespeare

You learn THAT ONE on the playground... unless you are a moron!

Read the pathetic quotes in this piece to see the kind of peasants we have living among us.

““I thought AOC would be our savior,”
There’s the problem.......


Beat me to it. Bet if I looked up the definition of savior in a 100 year old dictionary, it would be quite different.

NOUN
a person who saves someone or something (especially a country or cause) from danger, and who is regarded with the veneration of a religious figure.
“politicians of the era usually portray themselves as the nation’s saviors”

AOC has been left to dangle on the end of a limb, lately. Pelosi has obviously tired of doing the media clean up, on Aisle 13, for these Three Shrieking Mouthketeers she has on her hands.

Party money will get pulled back next.

To all the fools who vote socialist and expect them to care about you after they've got the money: "Womp, womp."

Unfortunately, once you crap your bed, you come to other states and do the same thing.

She wants them to think she’s really poor, and she understands the problems of poor people. A lie. She’s part of the ruling elite which scorns the people.
