In her First Thoughts on Fox Nation Tuesday, Tomi Lahren said Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's rhetoric may make members of older generations scratch their heads, but the youth in America seem to be taking her seriously.
Lahren noted that Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) has pushed far-left policies like the Green New Deal and Medicare for all. She has also raised eyebrows with some controversial or inaccurate claims, like saying that unemployment is low because people are working two jobs, and that the three branches of government are "the presidency, the Senate and the House."
"I could go on and on and on, but your brain would hurt and mine would to," Lahren said. "Problem is, my peers, your kids, your grandkids, they think she’s a genius, a revolutionary, a political savior. And that’s the problem."

I’ve been a lone voice crying in the FR wilderness on this point for quite some time.
If some way isn’t found to reach young people and deprogram them, the country is toast.
They do know that ‘Toy Story’ was just a movie, right?
Colleges and universities pumping out hordes of entitleds&activists is not what this country needs about now.
Sooner or later, the kids will be in control.
This is our fault. We abandoned the schools, taking care of our own, and allowed the left to infect and indoctrinate the masses.
We’re watching the fall, I just hope I’m gone before the big crash comes.
Defund the leftist colleges and make the kids work for a living—that will change their attitudes in a heartbeat—especially when they see the (where applicable) deductions from their paycheck—federal state, state tax, county tax, city tax, social security tax, Medicare tax.
Probably already too late. AOC and Omar are butter on the toast.
When boomer leaders and decision-makers have fully exited the workforce, then we’ll see the it start hitting the fan.
According o Martin Armstrong at a Princeton economics; the Socialism Cycle has peaked and is now in decline worldwide.
actually, i was at the NFL combine and was at a dinner with a 20 something YO girl who covered the Minnesota Vikings and she told me ocasio is an embarrassment to young people...
Look how much the Dems have succeeded in dumbing people down via the public schools, during the past couple of decades.
No one who can think clearly and logically, would view AOC as a genius or a savior.
This. It is a system wide failure. Getting rid of prayer in school was the camel’s nose in the tent. Are we better off now?
Who is Tomi Lahren?
Young people, for the most part, are ignorant of the history of the 20th century and socialism and it’s end results. They’re blind to the 21st century’s history so far as well.
AOC is going to be a One Term congress person.
The Left is not going to let the Hyper-Left take over the Party.
Perhaps, but a lot of it is just being young and ignorant and naïve. I graduated from a Catholic High School and a relatively apolitical university in 1979 and was as liberal as the young people of today. It took me some working in the real world, starting a family and getting some honest to goodness life experience before my mind got right.
By the time I was 35, I was just a bit left of Genghis Kahn. Conservatism comes with common sense and actuality. Time and experience lessons are the only cure for liberal/progressive thinking and many never do learn unfortunately.
The public educators in this country have alot to answer for (teaching the opposite of rights and duties of the citizens and instead their leftist illogic) and may one day find themselves hanging from lampposts alongside other intentionally negligent malfactors — like our current lefty politician traitors and conspirators(ie- the hillary crimes/treasons) and the multitude media propagandists (liars and frauds).
What public school these days teaches any Civics which would make this green leftism moron an instant regurgitation/rejection as she is (by anyone who knows basic things) an ignoramus (willfully or just stupidly).
She shouldn’t have even made it to Congress, but there’s no one driving the DNC bus.
The perfect minimum voting age.
If you take a sapling, bend it, tie it into an 'O' and let it grow like that for 12 years, you'll never be able to straighten it out.
There is a parallel between the two.
Ask those same know nothings in 10 years after they’ve had a couple kids and a mortgage.
