I can't imagine this being spoken smoothly, but it fits the situation. I can't wait to see what her impact is.

People in the other thread were saying Politico was being full of shit, but isn't this proving their point lol?

I fucking love that quote and approve of this so hard, but it's also kind of ironic that she's quoting a (fictional) far-right asshole.

Republicans have 20 years to fuck up her presidential aspirations... just like they did with Clinton.

Hopefully the US is in a better position in 20 years where it won't matter what Republicans say about her.

Ehhh I love AOC but Rorshach's "You're in here with ME" line is meant to be a pathetic cry from a man whose delusions of grandeur have vastly inflated his own sense of self importance. It was never intended to seem badass. So this is kind of the opposite message of what she intends.

Unless she's using it to make fun of Poltico's dumb article which is entirely possible.

It's kind of dumb for Dems to ignore the new Dems voted in to put the old Dems on committees. We didn't vote new blood in for that.

They're just going be primaried until there's no Old Dems to put on these.

it's kind of fascinating to see right wing media/talking heads and just traditional politicians in general run up against people actually capable of using modern tools like social media.

saw it a lot with Hogg too

Yes but it's a reply to someone talking about Latinas (and it's accurate).

I'm really disconcerted by the fact that people are building a Cult of Personality for a new politician with zero experience who just happens to be saying a bunch of stuff that they agree with, but has no history of being able to deliver on what they're saying. Who else does that remind me of?

I like Ocasio-Cortez and I like her message(s), but some of you need to calm down.

I'm not necessarily a big fan of hers, but she just earned a lot of points in my book.

My dream is to see this turn into a carefully-researched debate about Rorschach and the appropriateness of the quote fought in the opinion pages of major publications

A latina scorned
Now watch the world burn

But seriously they don't play and I love this element of no fucks given she gives to the dynamic of a, quite frankly, impotent Democratic party
