New York community leaders reportedly stormed out of a closed meeting with US Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Wednesday after some felt 'revolted' when she criticized Donald Trump and the US. AOC held the close gathering in the Bronx borough with Community Board 11 members but proved too controversial for two military veterans at least. One of the issues that sparked a sickening feeling in some was when a Middle Eastern member of the Community Board 11 asked for her thoughts on the conflict in Yemen. Ocasio-Cortez is said to have slammed the US role of providing weapons to the Saudi Arabian government in the civil war.

How does one get from bar tender to World Affairs Know It All in such a short time?
She should offer some online courses on how she did it.
Or maybe she just has unfounded opinions.

When Taco Barbie runs for re-election, win or lose, all the votes she gets represent the number of people either blinded by hatred or too stupid to understand exactly what she represents. I hope the number is small.

This ignorant ditz will be a one-term wonder and will go out screaming obscenities at those who do not appreciate her wisdom. Too bad that some of the benefits bestowed upon her due to the corruption of Congress will follow her through the rest of useless and clueless life.

There is a lot you could say about the lady in question, but 99% would be bad. And my mother taught he to not say anything bad about anyone who is quite possibly an idiot. Therefore I will say nothing about our democratic friends on the left.

Dems like to lecture us when it's at their convenience on "what America is about," or "this is not us," or "who we are," ad infinitum.
Stick it, Dems. Perdition to all of you.

Yea, well the article doesn't state who these people voted for, but my guess is a plurality of them supported her. You get what you vote for. Maybe next election you'll educate yourselves enough to send her back to mixing drinks where she belongs.

For many people, being lectured by a clear idiot is something that they will
immediately object to and exit from.
Poor little brain dead Commie.

But only about 13 percent of registered Democrats turned out to vote in the 14th Congressional District that takes in parts of Queens and the Bronx, according to a preliminary city Board of Elections tally.
There are 214,750 active registered Democratic voters in the district. Only ~16,000 out of 214,000 voted for her in the Primary. That’s 7.5%! of the Democrats in the 14th District and as far as I can tell, there are NO Registered Republicans living in the 14 District.

OK....who is going to primary her? Draw straws if necessary. Get behind a community leader. Be stealth until 1-1-20.
Perhaps I will send a donation to a viable candidate.

Alexandria Occasionally-Cognizant is more than a stupid moron. She is anti-American. She has no business in government.

The article was hard to put up with and the accompanying photos were the worst. I couldn't get all the way through it.

When she flames out in reelection, will she be a bartender stealing tips again? Would anyone hire her?

Looks like her fifteen minutes are up. She will be a one term wonder, and then have a life of expert on tv, making more and more money. We will never be rid of her, but she will be away from the levers of power.

This brain dead hamster is really going to catch it when Amazon chooses another district of New York City to set up shop. The Green New Deal is going to be the main reason for her downfall but there is a large list of contributing factors. Her voters got cheated.
