GaleParticipantReporters asked Trump to respond to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez calling him ‘racist’ and he said “Who cares?” They asked him to respond to Steve Kings racist comments and he said “Who?” If it’s a dumb white supremacist he plays dumb, if it’s a smart woman of color, he’s a smart ass.

CapricornKeymasterShe is brilliant.
And she stopped Trump from declaring the wall a fake emergency.

Desert_FoxParticipantHere’s something interesting; the Constitution requires that a president must be 35. It mentions nothing about a vice-president. So at 31 when she would take office could Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez be elected vice-president? Far fetched to be sure, just wondering.

But if something happens to the President, she would be next in line to take that position. So the VP also has to be 35 or older.

January 15, 2019 at 20:37 #8368Desert_FoxParticipantThat might be the logical conclusion but it isn’t written in any document that I know of. Could it be she could serve as vice-president but not ascend to the presidency in the case of the president leaving office?
I think it’s a question that could keep constitutional scholars arguing for hours or longer.

January 20, 2019 at 17:50 #8708Desert_FoxParticipantCopied and pasted from your fake news post:
So Harpo, the fucking fool, is posting bullshit as truth again.
Per Snopes:
Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has been the subject of a number of false rumors and accusations since she became the youngest woman elected to congress. In January 2019, we came across yet another meme that attempted to paint the freshman lawmaker as inexperienced and uneducated, this time by falsely attributing a fake quote about gun rights to her:
The fake quote reads: “Owning guns is NOT a right… If it were a right, it would be in the Constitution.” – Ocasio-Cortez.
This is not a genuine quote from Ocasio-Cortez. It was fabricated and spread in an attempt to discredit the New York congresswoman.

January 21, 2019 at 18:53 #8785GaleParticipantIf you are getting upset that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez suggested progressively taxing those making over $10M at 60-70%, but have no problem with the GOP threatening to take away the healthcare and social security of the lower and middle classes, then you are a piece of crap.

Well, the joke is on them!
The latest Hill–HarrisX poll indicates that 59% of Americans agree.

The Economics of Soaking the Rich
What does Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez know about tax policy? A lot.So AOC, far from showing her craziness, is fully in line with serious economic research. (I hear that she’s been talking to some very good economists.) Her critics, on the other hand, do indeed have crazy policy ideas — and tax policy is at the heart of the crazy.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez quotes the Bible after Sarah Huckabee Sanders says she should leave climate change up to God
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez quoted the Bible on Wednesday after the White House press secretary, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, suggested the US government should leave environmental protection up to God.
Sanders, a devout evangelical Christian, added that the Trump administration wouldn’t be taking any pointers on policy from “the freshman congresswoman.”
“I don’t think we’re going to listen to her on much of anything, particularly not on matters that we’re going to leave in to the hands of a much, much higher authority,” Sanders said on Sean Hannity’s Fox News program on Tuesday night. She argued that the country should leave the fate of the planet in “the hands of something and someone much more powerful than any of us,” presumably referring to God.
Ocasio-Cortez has been outspoken about the need to mitigate the devastating effects of climate change and is pushing an ambitious policy proposal called the Green New Deal to decarbonize the US economy and create jobs.
The 29-year-old New York Democrat, who was raised Catholic, retweeted a story about Sanders’ remarks and cited the Bible in her counterargument.
“‘Genesis 1: God looked on the world & called it good not once, not twice, but seven times. Genesis 2: God commands all people to “serve and protect” creation. Leviticus: God mandates that not only the people, but the land that sustains them, shall be respected,'” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted.
She went on: “You shouldn’t need a Bible to tell you to protect our planet, but it does anyway.”
A recent survey from the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication and the George Mason University Center for Climate Change Communication found that 73% of Americans said they understood that global warming is occurring — an increase of 10 percentage points from three years ago. And 72% of those polled said climate change was important to them.
Sanders, what an idiot which is why she fits right in with the rest of the Trump administration.
