Is it Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Party Now?
American Conservative ^ | June 29, 2018 | Patrick J. Buchanan

Posted on 06/29/2018 6:02:25 AM PDT by C19fan

For Nancy Pelosi, 78, Steny Hoyer, 79, and Joe Biden, 75, the primary results from New York’s 14th congressional district are a fire bell in the night.

All may be swept away in the coming revolution. That is the message of the crushing defeat of 10-term incumbent Joe Crowley, who had aspired to succeed Pelosi and become speaker of the House.

The No. 4 House Democrat, Crowley, 56, had not faced primary opposition since 2004. He outspent his opponent, 28-year-old Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who was tending bar a year ago, by 10 to one.

Wait, I thought he was supposed to be ashamed of that White privilege.

Hasn’t he been to the re-education camp yet?

Her party? The anti-American Democratic Socialist party? Nixon, Ocasio-Cortez, Waters, Pelosi, etc. They will make a perfect carcature of the Democrats. Lets see how the other “moderates” and non-Socialist and non-Communists like to be tied with that. Like the Dems in West Virginia, Utah, Idaho, and maybe even here in Nevada.

Doesn’t a crushing defeat require substantial voter participation? It is my understanding that while the percentages were high the turnout was very low and this woman won by only about a 5000 vote margin...hardly indicative of a wave, but perhaps of voter apathy.

All my life I watched Democrats lie their way into power by pretending to be something they were not. I actually find this new breed Democrats refreshing. At least they don't lie rabidly about the true Democrat party agenda.

The bad news is that she’s a militant socialist with a horrible agenda.

So the new rallying cry of the democrat party is MAVA, “Make America Venezuela Again!”

“I’ll say this: She’s hot!”

Lol, yeh, she’s a looker. So, maybe a few years down the road we got us a showdown between Cortez and Owens? I’ll put my money on Owens....

I am quite happy to know the enemy is saying who they are, putting their beliefs on their sleeves and not hiding them.

The Left will lose a lot of folks; it will be human nature to side with success (Trump)...it may not be overnight, but some Dems will switch and not be part of Communist Manifesto.

I have a good campaign slogan for her:

“Like Venezuela, because zoo animals are tasty!”

Why are pundits, left and right, reading so much into this?

Pure mental masturbation.

You need to put her win into the context there was only a 5% turnout to vote in her district. Not that impressive.

The monkeys at the DUmp are even now coaching one of the DUmp monkeys about how to lie to their friend who asked them about Obama’s policy of caging illegal kids. They admit that he did it too, but to either lie to the friend, or different ways to spin it, or to just brush off the friend’s inquiry.

And not one of them has asked her about her anti-Semitic volunteer. She may be telling the truth that she doesn’t know him, who knows, but that would never be good enough if she were a Republican. The media would certainly be asking, in all kinds of ways full of innuendo.
