Pretty disappointing to see her being a lightweight whiny little pussy when everything is going her way. I have always joined in with the fun of taking shots at her because she is an indiot, but i have always given her points for promoting her own brand and views- conquering the media and DC- whether deserved or not. And yes, she has had money and lefty groups in the background pulling strings for her ascendency but she was a stand up guy and did the face-to-face work herself and did not hide out in the basement or depend just on ads. Now I am taking points down off the board for the whiny little pussy. Typical butt hurt shiite after benefitted from all of the glories that America can offer. Oh, I see. She ran into some opposition in some areas even though the media and dems in DC opened 99.9% of the doors she knocked on and put the welcome mat down for her in less than a matter of months. All of her lefty heroes have had to grind it out for decades and get their heads busted in along the way too. Comrade Bernie, her mentor, has been at this shiite for years - relentlessly. Very disappointed in her. Selfie generation bullshitte. You aspire to be a youtube star and then are hospitalized if two people on Facebook defriend you. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: ‘I Don’t Even Know if I Want to Be in Politics’ Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) isn’t sure if she still wants to “be in politics” anymore. In an interview with The New York Times published Saturday, the congresswoman, arguably one of the highest-profile figure of the left right now, expressed frustration with the “smothering approach” she said she was experiencing from within her own party. “The last two years have been pretty hostile. Externally, we’ve been winning. Externally, there’s been a ton of support, but internally, it’s been extremely hostile to anything that even smells progressive,” Ocasio-Cortez told the Times’ Astead Herndon. Yet she also held the door open to running for Senate down the line. “I genuinely don’t know. I don’t even know if I want to be in politics. You know, for real, in the first six months of my term, I didn’t even know if I was going to run for re-election this year,” Ocasio-Cortez said. Noting that she chose to run for re-election at least partly to prove she “wasn’t a fluke,” she said the “lack of support” from within her own party had almost changed her mind. https://www.thedailybeast.com/alexandria-ocasio-cortez-i-dont-even-know-if-i-want-to-be-in-politics
