    Exactly. (Except I fear for my grand children's future.)

    Face it folks, she gets MSM coverage and name recognition. Works for Trump and works for AOC (or her handlers). If she is smart enough to be doing this on her own then she will be very dangerous to the USA and her supporters in the long run. JMO

    EDIT: Agree with Ken. She is mostly entertainment for now.

    The morons are the people who voted for her.

    However much you may wish that conservatives were outraged about her, we're really just amused. She has competition, for sure, but she's one of the best things the Republicans have going for them.

    Sure you can say anything and so many continue to show their true colors. I don't think my grandkids call people names but some people just can't help themselves...so engrained...

    @Martin Alonzo

    Now, we should not suppose she is being "leaned-on" to withdraw the remarks thusly, should we? Or maybe we should.

    Civil nuclear power might fizzle under the Green New Deal, but it's here to stay.

    I heard she had issued a retraction on her new green deal. She no longer believes the world will end in 12 years, and some other nonsense she stated in the past.

    I think you’re on the money Frank. Her poll numbers in her own district are quickly shrinking and I do believe mostly due to running the mouth without the brain being in gear.
    Her handlers have Got to be telling her to shut up because without the necessary campaign contributions she won’t even be invited to attend a Girl Scout pledge ceremony much less raising her hand again for office.
    But, what the heck, after only a few months in office she’s coming out of it a multi-millionaire.

    She had gone off the media radar pretty much for a couple of weeks, so I figured the Dems had persuaded her to shut the hell up, and now she's back saying what we already knew, which is that no one should have taken her seriously from the beginning. She now admits that she's a joke. Actually, I think she said joking, but you get the idea.

    I think Pelosi and Hoyer are leaning on her and threatening her committee assignments. I hear some of the conservative pundits referring to AOC as "the REAL Speaker of the House".

    Do people like you on the left call Trump names.

    Do you rewarded your grandkids if they call Trump a Moron?

    Think you do
