Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: Republicans are making fun of me because they’re afraid!

By now, you’re aware of “Democratic Socialist” and “young fresh face of the Democratic Party,” Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. You can’t swing a dead cat without hitting some left-wing media suck-up who’s singing her praises. She’s allegedly oh-so-wonderful that the future is going to be a radically different place thanks to her political participation. She is, they all say, just what we need. Ocasio-Cortez fever is in full swing. This, despite that fact that she seems to have no idea what she’s talking about:

Ocasio-Cortez also indicated that the unemployment rate is down only because people are working more than one job. That interview and the embarrassing exchanges it contained were mocked – mercilessly and accurately – in the following parody video:

Now, Ocasio-Cortez is trying to pretend that the parody is being presented as fact. She’s claiming that it’s some sort of “fake news” thing designed to make people think she’s not so bright, because people are “scared” of her…

Republicans are so scared of me that they’re faking videos and presenting them as real on Facebook because they can’t deal with reality anymore.

Here’s one bonafide truth:

Here’s a newsflash for Ocasio-Cortez. Literally no one on the right is “scared” of her. In fact, it’s just the opposite. We’re laughing at you, and we want you front and center. The more we can get people like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez out in front of the cameras, the better off we’ll all be. Her brand of socialism is toxic to most of the voting populace, she’s not presenting it well even if it weren’t, and it’s dividing the already damaged Democratic Party. In short, while she may get elected in ultra-left-wing New York, she’s doing her broader party more harm than good. So, please. Keep it up!
