AOC Rips James Carville for Blaming ‘Wokeness’ in Terry McAuliffe Defeat
Breitbart ^ | November 6, 2021 | Amy Furr

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) blasted Democrat strategist James Carville for being out of touch with the Democrat Party regarding the debate over its recent election losses, Business Insider reported Friday.

“Like the average audience for people seriously using the word ‘woke’ in a 2021 political discussion are James Carville and Fox News pundits so that should tell you all you need to know,” Ocasio-Cortez said in a social media post.

Carville told PBS on Wednesday “wokeness” was to blame for Terry McAuliffe’s (D) loss to Glenn Youngkin (R) during the Virginia gubernatorial election.

Breitbart News reported:

“[W]hat went wrong is just stupid wokeness,” he declared. “Don’t just look at Virginia and New Jersey. Look at Long Island, look at Buffalo, look at Minneapolis, even look at Seattle, Wash. I mean, this ‘defund the police’ lunacy, this take Abraham Lincoln’s name off of schools. I mean that — people see that.”

“It’s just really — has a suppressive effect all across the country on Democrats. Some of these people need to go to a ‘woke’ detox center or something,” Carville continued. “They’re expressing a language that people just don’t use, and there’s backlash and a frustration at that.”

Ocasio-Cortez made her comments while calling out a local news article that reported she said McAuliffe “wasn’t woke enough” because she said “moderate Dems” were “ceding white swing voters to the right” by failing to engage Republicans.

“How can news outlets even attribute words to me I didn’t say?” she wrote in a social media post. “I said there are limits to trying to mobilize a campaign with a 100% moderate strategy without mobilizing the base. Said nothing [about] ‘wokeness’ which is a term almost exclusively used by older people these days btw.”

Democrats went woke against parents in Virginia—parents won.
MLB went woke against Atlanta—Atlanta won.
Democrats went woke against the taxpayers in New Jersey— and it isn’t looking good.

AOC and Candace Owens are both the same age, 32.

Yup. The young progs are certain that it’s the stupidity of others that keeps them from understanding what’s best for them.

“Woke” is completely totalitarian... and demands “no other gods before it.”

Carville ain’t no dummy and of course is spot on. I also believe the anti mandate crowd is starting to show their frustration at the voting booth.

I’m on your side about that... I’d like to get a crack at her too.

So hot... so stupid.

But she’s what I consider a special type of hot.. dangerously hot. Men around her will do anything to be near her. It’s a rare quality I’ve only seen a few times in my life.

The end result is that no one near her wants to tell her how stupid she is.
