AOC accusing Pelosi of being racist. You gotta love it. Don't take it personally Nancy. She and her ilk accuse everyone of being racist. IT'S WHAT THEY DO. “But the persistent singling out — it got to a point where it was just outright disrespectful — the explicit singling out of newly elected women of color.” Oh, I see. AOC will argue that she did not specifically call her racist, she just pointed out behavior that would be racist. Uh okay. My bad. It's about like Skankala Harris arguing that she specificially said to Joe "I don;t think you are a racist." Uh, okay. That would be like Joe saying to her: " I am not saying you performed as Willie's concubine to get your start in politics, so don;t say that I did." Howz that work for ya Skankala. Anyway. All rayciss/all the time with the new crop in Congress. Enjoy Nancy. https://nypost.com/2019/07/11/aoc-c...isrespectful-for-singling-out-women-of-color/
We always have to remember....AOC, herself, is nothing.... just going along for the ride. She's the mouthpiece* for a political group who wants to wipe out all of Congress and replace them with "their" people. (Ambitious to say the least, but AOC is their "camel nose under the tent".) *She isn't now nor ever was a political animal or opinion/force. She was selected from a casting call for her physical appeal and charisma to relay the desires/policies of her string-pullers... and I guess for her willingness to do/say what she was told.
Seems FOX News and GOP give AOC more press coverage and power than her own party. How many Democratic Leaders are pulling her in to make big decisions? She is being given an Etch a Sketch and told to go sit at the kiddie table while the adults are talking.
Yes in part- except it is not that simple. The "adults" should include both party leaders in Congress and the ones running for Pres. She does not have much ability to to get the party leadership and regular members to line up with her. But she has the ones running for President right by the balls and ovs. They are either busy lining up to support her, to get her support, or busy explaining and defending themselves against her. So Pelosi is right that she has influence with the twitterspere and not much in the house, but in regard to the prez campaign - she has plenty of influence- plenty.
That is what you say because the GOP and right is giving her so much air time to scare voters. She has not accomplished nothing of power in Congress (how far has her green bullshit flown?) and Nancy is put her in her place already. Stop being afraid of the nice rack in the corner.
Right on this one. And people like Biden have to be careful not to get into a situation where he is punching down to AOC because democrats by and large don’t know who the hell AOC is, she’s fox News famous.
The situation is not unlike that Trump faced with Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell and other establishment republican sellouts. Pelosi answers to the big money, AOC only answers to Soros. AOC clearly is more reflective of dem voters than Pelosi and it's why she is so powerful. No one ever accused the dem base of being particularly bright or rational either. They are highly emotional and easily manipulated. There is an easy test of this. Which candidate would prefer Pelosi's endorsement over AOC's?
