GOP Senator Utterly Embarrasses Ocasio-Cortez on Gun Control, & She’s Stunned SILENT
Once again, uninformed freshman Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez continues to show she knows so very little of which she speaks.
This time, she responded to former Florida governor, current Florida senator, Rick Scott.
Scott shut her down hard.
It all began with 2020 contender Sen. Cory Booker’s (NJ) thoughts on creating a federal license for gun owners.
LOOK:
Sen. Cory Booker is rolling out a sweeping gun control agenda that includes requiring licenses for all gun owners, as well as more standard proposals such as universal background checks and banning assault weapons

Scott’s tweets:
🚨BREAKING: the latest terrible idea to come out of the Democrats’ 2020 primary is a federal gun registry. If you want to buy a gun, @CoryBooker wants you to register with the federal government.
This would be scary if Booker had any chance of becoming President. (1/2)

What’s next? Will we have to register sharp knives? Maybe @AOC will make us register every time we buy meat as part of her #GreenNewDeal.
The Democrats are officially the @BernieSanders Party. They want America to be less prosperous and less free. (2/2)

Enter Ocasio-Cortez, who doesn’t get it:
That a sitting US Senator can say something lacking so much critical thinking + honesty is embarrassing to the institution.
If you were a female candidate, maybe you’d be called “unlikeable,” “crazy,” or “uninformed.”
But since you’re not, this inadequacy is accepted as normal.

Finally, Scott brings the thunder:
That a sitting Congresswoman doesn’t understand sarcasm would be embarrassing to the institution if you hadn’t embarrassed yours to the point of irrelevance already.
America rejects socialism and will continue to.

As you’d imagine, AOC was left speechless.
Ocasio-Cortez recently said about the Department of Veterans Affairs, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.“
What’s weird is that everyone seems to agree, for years now, that the VA is wildly broken.
In a surprising twist, President Donald Trump actually agrees with AOC.
Well, he agrees with her in his own way.
LOOK:
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is correct, the VA is not broken, it is doing great. But that is only because of the Trump Administration. We got Veterans Choice & Accountability passed. “President Trump deserves a lot of credit.” Dan Caldwell, Concerned Veterans of America

From Daily Caller:
Trump touted a measure he signed in 2017 in the Wednesday tweet. The legislation fixed long-running accountability issues and ensured that incompetent individuals failing to adequately serve veterans did not remain on the VA payroll.
Trump has repeatedly touted the measure, even using a famous catchphrase from his “The Apprentice” days.
“It’s called VA accountability,” he said at a June 2018 rally in Minnesota. “Now, you bring the person into the office and you say, ‘Jim, I’m sorry to tell you, you are fired. Get out of here.’”
Ocasio-Cortez’s poll numbers are in the garbage.
In fact, she’s far less popular than President Trump…and even Hillary Clinton.
It’s not hard to see why. AOC constantly finds a way to stick her foot in her mouth.
What’s even sadder is that she routinely doubles down on her mistakes, which only serves to exacerbate the situation.
