I know, right?

I agree with almost nothing this woman says, but she was on point with this video and I admire her for it.

It's a total mindscrew, actually.

The establishment will either consume or remove her.

Looks like everyone in the room agreed with her too. All they kept saying was "yes", "that's correct", etc.

I am the first one to share an AOC low IQ meme (even made a few myself) but this was damn satisfying to watch.

If we could only somehow convert common sense ideas into positive, non-partisan actions.......

You could have done like me and protested both main Trump and Hillary were unsuitable and, instead, voted for the Libertarian or some other candidate on the ballot, if any.

First thing I've agreed with her on. It's been unethical fit years. Not sure it will get changed, though. Our two main parties don't put forward any alternatives.

She graduates c-um laude with a degree in economics and you say she has a low IQ?

That's funny, but sad at the same time.

I've always viewed Trump as an asshat, but his views on illegal immigration, tax policy, the media, and a number of other things are more in line with mine than any other candidate sans Jim Webb, my first choice.

I don't regret my vote whatsoever and at this point will unashamedly vote for him again. I'm done with the expectation that America's leaders are expected to be America's moral compass since Bill Clinton's ever-shifting politics and Oral-Office antics.

Well, no, I CLEARLY did NOT say that AOC was low IQ. And since you obviously lack reading comprehension or choose to ignore to score political points, I am reminded of:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTEhEUoTzqo

I said that I share "AOC low IQ memes" and "made some of my own". I share/make them because some of AOC's proposals are just absolutely insane and bats*** crazy.

However, it is noted that you chose to focus on THAT rather than the part where I stated, "I admire her".

I hope to see the day when those purchasing politicians along with corporate and banking lobbyists are flushed down the toilet.
In the 70s, you had less than 200 lobby offices in DC, today that number is in the thousands.
It has been downhill ever since for the majority of Americans.

And that still would have delivered Trump.
