Wednesday on FNC’s “The Ingraham Angle,” host Laura Ingraham speculated about the possibility of conservatives teaming up with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) on several key issues to defeat the establishment forces in both political parties.
INGRAHAM: First, the tempting of AOC; that’s the focus of tonight’s “Angle.”
Now, shortly after she stunned House Democrats by beating long-time incumbent Queens Congressman Joe Crowley two years ago, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was being written off by many Republicans as just a flash in the pan – just a far-left progressive who caught an old establishment Democrat off guard. But I saw things differently.
I think it’s a mistake for conservatives not to take her seriously, to brush her off as kind of a flash in the plan or an upstart. She’s as close to a thought leader that the Democratic Party has today and she has a massive social media following. She’s both charismatic and she’s committed to transforming both our economic system and our culture.

I like this idea. Let us say that Nancy Pelosi proposes the “eliminate American industry and give me money act.” Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez opposes it because it allows some industries, say politically connected California vinters, to continue. Republicans oppose it because they still support the existence of some industry in America, or more realistically for Republican politicians, because it doesn’t provide sufficiently luxurious giveaways to their campaign sponsors. If the House of Representatives is divided, 222-213, and we can hold all 213 Republicans and attract four Democrats on whatever pretense, then we prevail. We don’t have to agree with the Democrats or act for the same reason; we only need to encourage or accept some dissension in their caucus while maintaining our unity to benefit.
Maybe a better bra.
I always thought highly of Laura Ingraham. But she can’t be this stupid, can she? AOC wants a radical transformation of our society. She wants us to become the Venezuela of the north.
You just can’t work with people like that. They will use any support you give them to destroy you.
You might be able to work with the BernieBros on trade, and that’s about it. Even Trump has admitted that.
That's Melissa Francis. The one who didn't like Rudy bringing up George Soros and his D.A. campaigns a few months back.
Sorry blondie
Unpossible
Laura needs to be banished to a little house on the prairie, permanently.
Wasn’t that Newt that brought up Dr.Evil?
It fascinates me the attention so-called conservatives give this nut-job...uh, AOC, not Ingraham.
It amazes me that Lura is so unwise in a business sense. Noonewho listens to hate trump/America hypnosis media will ever tune her in. Those hopeful of the corruption clearing will never again listen to her. Where is she going? She thinks there’ll be a biden takeover and some kind of audience there? I know she’s under contract with Fox, but she goes her own way to some degree.
She’s a constitutional lawyer. She knows this election is a complete scam and there’s no country without electionS
Of all things this Laura Ingraham case is the thing that baffles me.
I’ve read about more heroes on this site that turned out to be duds years or even a decade or more later.
TV and radio hosts. Politicians.
I’ve had my own share that I thought were great.
Trump’s presidency and now this election have REALLY shown us who’s who.
I was wrong on a number of people.
I guess everyone was wrong about some people.
You can’t read a person’s heart until all the cards are on the table.
Heck I Was shocked by some FReepers’ response to the virus.
Seemed like giving up liberty came pretty easy when push came to shove.
But if one is older or sick I can understand.
Tough days we live in
My father had an expression for such foolishness: “Not no, but hell no!”
The older these people get, the more entrenched they become in the establishment.
The radical wing of the dim party doesn’t “work”...they get other’s to do their [dirty] work for them.
WTF??? AOC said that she does not want to work with a Republican Senate.
I watched it. You’re right. People read a headline and don’t bother to read further and jump to conclusions.
Seriously has Laura lost her noodle..AOC doesn’t want to “Work” with Conservatives..she wants ANYONE that voted for Donald Trump, thinks like Donald Trump, dead..that simple..how do you work with anyone who wants you dead
Her name is now Laura Irrelevant. Another fair-weather conservative exposed.
“Waiter? I’ll have what she’s drinking.”

I am sure she has gone to the left and will be awarded a nice position soon on CNN!!! Never have I been disappointed more in a person that her. My young daughter of 30 years has watched and gleaned a lot from Laura and Tucker, only to be let down terribly!! She is over now ... in our home a no no!!! Sorry Laura. You lost with Biden!!
