Perhaps we will be better off in the long run if we learn our lessons the hard way – with the Ocasio-Cortez/Pressley faction actually in office and making policy – and then we surgically remove the fantasy of government-supported Nirvana-for-all from our national consciousness once and for all.

Sorry, but I think the author is nuts if he thinks we would ever recover if enough Ocasio’s held office and enacted all of the policy’s that they truly desire. We need to take every opportunity possible to teach the error of their ways to those who would consider voting for these delusional fools BEFORE they get a majority into office.

His fake authoritarian demeanor failed him.
His smarmy facial expressions came off as poor acting
He’s lost it.
(regarding his gray hair, the same thing happened to a better man, Charles Paine)
I used to say this about Obama.
“...perhaps we will be better off in the long run if we learn our lessons the hard way – with the Ocasio-Cortez/Pressley faction actually in office and making policy...”
If Romney/Ryan had been in just place holding, making life nice for congress (that’s who these guys work for-nit for we the people) Hillary would have had an easy time walking in.
We !and Trump) had enough of the America haters led by obama
New York State has an odd way of putting certain candidates on multiple lines when they are running for a particular office. Ocasio-Cortez is on the Democratic party line, but there is a third-party line, the Working Families Party, on which Joe Crowley is still listed. Crowley has never endorsed Ocasio-Cortez, so he is still officially running.
By making the distinction in a very intensive campaign, Crowley could still be elected, and resume his position as incumbent. But this time, he is fighting the Soros money machine.
Would love to have these idiots put on a plane for a one way trip to Venezuela. They have to provide their own return trip——but only after they have spent 3 months seeing what socialism really produces.
Could be! Serious Democrat players can’t be happy with the nutso Progressive trend. They would be happy with Ocasio under the train.

Cute, but stupid.
During BHOZO’s next speech somebody should toss a bag of weed out in front of him. That should really confuse the clown between wanting to pick the bag up or pay attention to the teleprompters.
The ‘community rabble rouser’ is back at his old job.
If they did, it certainly wasn't in government (statist) sponsored schools!
How about some write-in campaigns?
That's a very good observation. Needs to be repeated and spread far and wide.
Oh, it goes much farther back than that ...
The traditional Democrat Party socialists are the party of Julius Martov, the Mensheviks...
The newbies are the party of Vladimir Lenin and Leon Trotsky, the Bolsheviks ...
Never stick your vote in crazy.
Why doesn’t Crowley run as an independent like Lieberman did after losing a primary fight?
Perhaps they did. The Left faction is taking over the Party. The Leninists hold much of the power and ability to promote candidates,
I would love that to be implemented.
The Picture of Dorian Obama.
There are the affluent who rose above their station. For instance, ones who came from working class parents, typically among the first in their families to go through college, and are doing well in a professional or entrepreneurial career. These tend to be conservatives.
Then you have those who came from affluent parents and never had to worry about money. They were automatically put in the right schools, made the right connections, and entered lucrative careers with a minimum of effort. Or chose not to have real careers at all because of the trust funds bestowed upon them by their wealthy parents. These tend to be liberal.
Regarding the latter, they never really had to work hard and their financial security was assured at birth. So to them, having their taxes raised to support a growing welfare state is fine with them. No matter how high the taxes go, they never need to worry for themselves as they have daddy's money to fall back on. Many of them never even had a mortgage because their first home was paid for in cash. So perhaps they feel a bit guilty for their good fortune and see it as "social justice" for others to have the government provide for them so that they don't have to work hard either.
Meanwhile, the former group, who had to struggle to attain their prosperity feel put upon that others who chose not to work as hard as they get government largesse at largely their expense.
