And they do!

Before you dismiss this lady, republicans are a minority racist party! They don’t care who they elect as long as he is a white colonialist calling himself American. Elected trump and a bunch of bigoted punks into office, correct?

...I have no words for how dumb this statement is. Socialism in and of itself requires immense bureaucracy and a large, vaguely authoritarian government. This is completely against the spirit of conservatism.

How poorly you understand American politics, Economist: Ocasio-Cortez represents the Berner youth movement, and so is both a threat to us Democrats & our future — our task is to both remove Trump & achieve that future — but it’s not a choice, they’re the same.

Love and am excited. Own your extremists, we get blamed for ours. At least yours are just stupid, ours are sometimes far more evil.

And she’s an absurd joke. Makes me laugh. The Democrats deserve her.

alllibertynews And what has mr. T DONE?

Don’t worry she is just the first. The GOO millennials are coming too. The game has changed. See ya boomers.

The whole premise that the right is terrified of AOC is just a talking point perpetuated by the Left leaning media and her adoring liberal fans. They love that she is viewed as an antagonist of the right... but she actually is a godsend to the GOP

Agreed. She's not a Dem and this growing split in the party will continue to alienate traditional Dems.

Yep dumb & dumber is the New Democratic theme. 😂😂😂

Sun Tzu said it best, “Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake”. AOC is no exception!

They do.

Yes. Keep on giving.... AOC, Any new crazy ideas? Check with Bernie, he might have some to share with you.

it is not socialism if you make capitalism work better. this oligarh isn't working better. 14 people have everything. peasants trying to find a place to survive -40.

alllibertynews The British giving political advice to Republicans? British arrogance is unbelievable. UK is ungovernable, half the country wants to secede, and it is the laughingstock of Europe. Yet the British are experts on GOP and AOC? Inbred sassanachs never learn

No, we don’t like that as she is such an embarrassment to this republic. AOC

We do!

Amazing that someone who lied about her background, won a primary with 14 % voter turnout for a guaranteed Dem seat, has no experience in anything, has no answers to question on how to pay for anything, but is treated as an econobic guru.

That lady is crazy, tell me 1 country socialism has been a positive influence or change. Look at Venezuela! Lets send AOC back to Mexico after we build the wall! wetback socialismmyballs gobacktomexicocunt

No chance I ever support her after her comments on Venezuela

trump will win a second term, he will wait till the next run starts before he starts jailing all them crooks and getting the wall built making the american people vote for him again

GenZ is gonna be brutal....

Socialism is wrong.

She's a threat to all people living in America. This is much more accurate.

Republicans don't know what socialism is & therefore don't understand that they are some of the biggest socialists around.

I admire that she is a woman, and the youngest woman to ever be elected into Congress. However, we are NOT socialist. I cannot dislike her because of view, this country fought for her right to have them. She speaks her mind, even if I do not agree.

Anti establishment Democrats: 'Our party isin't doing enough to fight the oligarchy that control the important parts of our lives.' Anti establishment Republicans: 'We aren't doing enough to protect the power of the oligarchy.' The Economist: 'Why don't they work together?'

The economist getting in on the fear-mongering

Oh, she’s definitely a keeper. The entertainment is never ending.😂

the problem with that is the right wing slime machine is putting that bullshit out ... she is a progressive steam roller that will one day help destroy the party of nazis ...

They focus on character, because it’s now a transparent world. Point of note, they know that nobody is perfect.....and they won’t tolerate hypocrisy.

In the article, AOC is described as having 'populist' ideas. I wouldn't know why. Her views on taxes, for one, are in line with those of the most respected public finance experts, including a Nobel laureate. No one would call Peter Diamond a populist. See:

Corbyn + Sanders. If you want Millennials and gen Z to accept the legitimacy of 'democracy', bend the knee, centrist.

Meanwhile back on Earth...

I vote all over the map too, I follow GenZ, they are the boss!😋🔥🗽

In a way she does bring some issues out before Congress, regarding which the gentleman would mostly prefer to keep their privacy in the REDLightDistrict downtown Baltimore. LaborUnion DNC establishment is not very Latino-friendly. White cartel of low-class work & good wages.

a sizable percentage of republicans support aoc's policy proposals, eg. raising the top tax rate to 70 percent. if republicans support aoc, it won't be because she represents a threat to her own party’s establishment but because she's listening to voters

Nothing against her, she is an idealist and perhaps naive (although I think her gaffes are no worse than what you get from your average politician) but she is a first-time junior senator, she is getting way too much press relative to the importance of her post.

They’ll love her, they’ll just let her keep going.... they may even put her on payroll.😋

MAGA unironically pays more attention to her because of their complete disagreement with most of her values, their strange overlapping ideas with other, and admiration for her balls to the wall pit fighter mentality

She’s and the millenial left are going to pull them so far left, the whole thing will implode..... And with GenZ (who have firm libertarian tendencies, not of the political kind, they simply focus on character, meaning they’ll vote all over the map) the Dems are in trouble.

Too bad Republican in 2019 means broke-ass billionaire cunt that can’t afford to pay wages, taxes, or even afford to pay for its own losses or liabilities.

Go home you're drunk.

Boom.

Okay.

No author had the balls to put their name on this piece? Shows the world the Economist is a mouthpiece for the uber rich, power hungry and the status quo. The strength AOC brings to the table is not easy to dismiss. Be prepared, be very prepared.

she looks like a particularly stroppy ballerina.

Old hopeless conservative journalism.

who's President now and how's that going for his party? Holy smokes you guys are terrified of paying taxes. It's 600 billionaires vs 320 million people. The wave is coming
