Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, like wow, confuses 'Berlin Wall' with America
Washington Times ^ | 2/19/19 | Cheryl Chumley

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the socialist with the mostest, has unleashed a new wave of hail and fire and fury against this White House, telling a listening and disbelieving America that President Donald Trump’s push for border protection, like, is nothing but “a moral abomination,” like because it like reminds of like, the Berlin Wall and all.

Like wow.

“No matter how you feel about the wall,” she said, the Daily Mail reported, “I think it’s a moral abomination. I think it’s like the Berlin Wall.”

Except, of course — it’s not.

The Berlin Wall was the “Iron Curtain” separation between East Berlin and West Berlin of the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s — the “Cold War” barrier that stood until Ronald Reagan days, in fact, when he so famously and inspirationally said to “Mr. Gorbachev,” Mikhail Gorbachev, the former Soviet Union leader, “tear down this wall.” And down it came. And freedom reigned.

But to remind: That wall, that Berlin Wall, was a Soviet structure aimed at keeping the communists of the East from fleeing to comparatively freer lands of the West.

Trump’s wall is aimed at keeping the illegals from entering America.

Berlin’s wall was freedom-stomping.

Trump’s wall is freedom-saving.

It’s a bit different, you see. AOC.

“In another segment of her Friday livestream, which appeared Monday on several conservative websites, [Ocasio-Cortez] said her newfound fame as a socialist standard-bearer can be uncomfortable,” the Daily Mail wrote. “‘Here in DC it’s like, so weird,’ she said. ‘It’s like everybody is like, a spy. Like, it’s so bizarre.’”

Totally. For sure. Like, oh my God. Can’t make this stuff up, folks.

AOC has been missing in action for over 72 hours. Could Pelosi and senior dems have maybe put her in place Harry Reid style?

Omar and Tlaib had small Twitter posts but for the most part , all three seem silenced since saturday afternoon.

Just an observation as its hard to pry the loudmouthed latina away from her Twitter fans.

Noones seen her......

You know, Amazons were a group of powerful one-breasted females that could leap over walls at will. Could’nt keep the jobs in Queens, tho.

... and of course, no self-respecting agent of the federal gov’t would every consider using such a wall to keep Americans in.

It's completely the opposite, Occasional Kotex, you big dummy. The Berlin Wall was built so that the commies could keep people IN. Even if we built the southern border wall, we'd still never stop you from leaving, if you should so choose. We might even throw you a party, gurrrrrrrl!

She seems not to understand that one wall is to keep people out, the other was to keep people in.

Welcome to the Swamp.

I know she's an outsider from the other side, but she's still an outsider. This just shows that her side doesn't trust her either.

Let me simplify: the Berlin Wall was used to keep people in. Trump’s wall will be used to keep invaders out. Completely opposite.

This is the inevitable, predictable, result of “educators” who gutted the curriculum and jettisoned time-honored concepts of teaching facts, logic, and reason. This wasn’t an oversight, it was done purposefully and by design.

She’s too stupid to realize the Berlin Wall wall was constructed to keep people in, not keep people out.

Nobody was defecting TO communist totalitarian societies, maybe the occasional brain damaged loon, similar to North Korean adherents or jolly little wenches who sign on to ISIS thinking it will be fun and exciting.

If we had a genuine news media, chicks (and guys) like this wouldn’t get far.

Dear Alexandria:

Prison Walls are designed to keep people in. Check out any Federal Prison for an example. The Berlin wall was also designed to keep people in. It was built to keep East Berliners from fleeing to the West.

The Nancy Pelosi Wall on the other hand is designed to KEEP PEOPLE OUT. Check out Trump’s Border Wall for another example.

And in the future I highly recommend that you try harder to hide your lack of education from the public. It may be selling well right now but I have my doubts about the future.

I'm noticing that there isn't much of the..."It's all a show. She's really much more intelligent than she appears. She's just rtying to get people to under estimate her, yada, yada yada."

I think it's safe to say Ocrasio-Cortez is every bit as stupid as she appears.

And yet Nancy’s wishing everyone Happy Thanksgiving in February, and RBG is at work, but no pictures exist save those taken in November.

What a mess.
