An average swing voter who has repeatedly expressed his uncritical and undying fealty to Trump. You're not fooling anybody.

You think swing voters don't exist in every nation where citizens have the right to vote freely? That all voters somewhere outside the USA invariably vote for the same party? I think that's why you got the laugh.

No, even if you really were a genuine swing voter, you're certainly not average:

AOC previously worked as a waitress, something millions of ordinary Americans have themselves done and recognize as an honest way to earn a living.

 

AOC brings a great deal to the table, which,  in addition to being an outspoken woman, is why so many on the right wing hate her.

Yeah being a waitress is fine.

I'm not really impressed with her as a politician.

I'm suspicious of populists from any side.

About the dress:

If there is no stain 

There will be no political gain

 

The republicans are ridiculous with their obsession with trivia.

More interestingly for the suspicious path she took to immigration given the politics of her immigration demagogue spouse.

Thanks for referencing an article that completely refutes your attempts to stir up resentment against AOC. You should really try reading things you search for, sometimes the headlines can be misleading. LOL.

There's no such party as the Democratic Socialist Party any more than there's a Republican Whack Job Party.

The Republican Whack Job Party operates under the banner of MEGA.

 

They are afraid of losing their "masculine superiority", so they are afraid of any self assured powerful woman such as AOC.

 

I pity them and their fragile egos.

Why her?

Aoc the waitress that brings nothing to the table. Maybe she can return the gifts without the shame?

Maybe the House GOP can return Majorie Greene and Ron DeSantis without shame.

Troll post and replies removed.

I caught her in a great faux pas when she was just starting out, such that it was either a stupid move or her understanding of such things is lacking.  I'm not going to elaborate publicly because there is more than enough bashing coming her way.

That said, I think she could be kept on as a future "keeper of the progressive flame," a next-generation Liz Warren or Bernie.  She'll never be elected to the presidency (recall the 3-shirted one saying "votes don't matter anymore") but she'll make her voice heard.  She could be elected mayor of NYC (probably one of the worst jobs in the political world, but man, would the Puerto Ricans be proud of her!) maybe governor (or senator)  of NY State.

Also she's too sexy to be president

This woman simply loves attention. Look at meeeeeeee....

 

The dress was hideous and broke ethics rules. The message was straight of a sixth form common room. Apart from that, whoooo way to go girl!!!

I'm sure she's enjoying all the attention anyway.

There you go again. Another case of mind -reading about someone's motivation.

 

"The dress was hideous". And one of the cliched tropes in silly films is about gay men making criticism not based on the issues at hand but rather about fashion. Congratulations for emulating that ridiculous behavior. 

 

And I didn't know that it had already been decided that the dress broke ethics rules. Can you link to a source for that?
