Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., took to Twitter to slam Democratic strategist James Carville, and others, for blaming the party's "wokeness" for Terry McAuliffe's gubernatorial loss in Virginia, claiming that the terms is "almost exclusively used by older people."

"How can news outlets even attribute words to me I didn’t say," Ocasio-Cortez questioned in a tweet, linking to a report and another tweet from ABC 13 News in Virginia which quoted the New York congresswoman as saying McAuliffe lost the race because he was not "woke" enough.

"I said there are limits to trying to mobilize a campaign with a 100% moderate strategy without mobilizing the base," Ocasio-Cortez added. "Said nothing [about] ‘wokeness’ which is a term almost exclusively used by older people these days btw"...

AOC is a very good propagandist, so she hates it when others have effective buzz words like Woke, that cut down her idiotic causes. This dim bulb really thinks that money grows on trees for the Federal Gov’t to squander on her stupid, Woke schemes.

“I am thrilled the nitwit hasn’t learned a thing from the VA drubbing.”

Besides clown AOC, 40-50% of the Democrat party has learned nothing. They are too committed to AOC style communism, so will not moderate themselves anyways. These lefty fanatics are younger, are dangerous, are committed to spending trillions against the global warming illusion. Putin and Xi are loving this, seeing the US throw trillions down this rathole.

She disses anyone older than she is…. ie 32.

I'll bet she turns into one of those pathetic pumas who still try to dress like they're 20 when they are 65.

Either one works.

I was making a pun. "Wizened" = "shrivelled or wrinkled with age"

All these trillion dollar pork barrel projects mean more useless Federal workers. This is their number one objective. Some things get built, some solar panels get installed, some roads get repaved incompetently. But the first objective is expansion of Federal rule and the Federal government in DC. To tie more contactors to the Federal tit. If some of your workers have no vaxx, then you will be a rejected contractor.

” ....Gal is after Schumer’s job..”

You mean Pelosi’s job. AOC is in the House, unless you think she’s going to run for the Senate.
