Sorry AOC, you have to be 35 years old. You are still wet behind the ears.

Given Bernie’s age and health, she’d soon be President.

Can’t she just identify as a 35 year old? I mean, who am I to judge?

Some fascist document written by dead white men and supported by living white fascists?

I don’t think you realize what’s important here.
