"The Left’s millennial could be the perfect presidential candidate for a party determined to learn nothing."
"AOC supports Medicare for All. This excites many voters, especially those who failed math class. Let us turn to the master, P. J. O’Rourke: “If you think health care is expensive now, wait until it’s free.”
"The Democrats performed well in the elections, albeit thanks to the Republicans’ clumsy blunders. Now the internal battle to choose a presidential candidate truly begins. I assume the talk about Kamala Harris is a joke. My bet is undoubtedly on AOC. No one better represents the ruinous ideas that have dragged the Left into nowhere, into a hodgepodge of hallucinatory, deranged notions situated a hundred thousand light-years away from where things actually happen: reality.
"AOC has the demagoguery required to defend idiotic positions while bringing the most sensitive viewers to tears. She is that kind of leftist who, upon receiving an award, uses her acceptance speech to say something like: “On a day as happy as today, having received the County’s Best Hot Dog Award, I want to spare a thought for the children of Somalia, who have nothing to eat and are suffering terribly. Today, when you bite into your hot dog, think of them, and you’ll be making the world a better place.”
"AOC is obsessed with the rich. That obsession led her to wear a dress emblazoned with “Tax the Rich” at the 2021 Met Gala. It is true that she faced an investigation into whether she had violated congressional rules (she had initially failed to pay for the outfit), but it is equally true that she perfectly embodies the ideas of the postmodern Left. Lacking a solid ideological framework and the faintest grasp of economics, its only means of mobilization are catchy slogans and foolproof placards. AOC, who, frankly, isn’t the sharpest pencil in the box, is right to wear her own slogan. She should do it every day. As for the aesthetics, if you want to know just how ridiculous something like this can look, imagine JD Vance in a white tailcoat emblazoned with “Death to Taxes.” It might make a conservative cringe, but believe me, there are plenty of people who genuinely believe a bumper sticker can change the world.
"AOC supports a Green New Deal. She wants to guarantee employment and transform the economy through green measures, basing all tax policy on a single objective: saving the planet. It is the most idiotic economic idea the Left has ever come up with (and the competition is fierce)." . . . More.
