ONE-TERM! Democrats Want Ocasio-Cortez Gone, Looking Into Primary Challenge
Democrats are known for not going against one another.
Groupthink is commonplace.
That’s what makes this story so wild.
Apparently, Dems are so tired of freshman Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez that they are looking to push her out in 2020.
They may find someone who will be willing to primary AOC.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) has infuriated colleagues by aligning with a progressive outside group that’s threatening to primary entrenched Democrats. Now some of those lawmakers are turning the tables on her and are discussing recruiting a primary challenger to run against the social media sensation.
At least one House Democrat has been privately urging members of the New York delegation to recruit a local politician from the Bronx or Queens to challenge Ocasio-Cortez.
“What I have recommended to the New York delegation is that you find her a primary opponent and make her a one-term congressperson,” the Democratic lawmaker, who requested anonymity, told The Hill. “You’ve got numerous council people and state legislators who’ve been waiting 20 years for that seat. I’m sure they can find numerous people who want that seat in that district.”
The problem now, though, is that AOC has the name recognition. Even more unfortunate is how popular Democrat socialism has become in America.
Most people figured Ocasio-Cortez was ignorant based on her policies.
However, she’s making it clear to everyone she doesn’t know much of anything about anything.
For example…
From Mediaite:
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez mocked her critics in a Washington Post interview, telling them to “enjoy being exhausted for the next two years while we run train on the progressive agenda.”
According to Urban Dictionary — not always a reliable source, but useful in this case — “run train” is colloquially defined as “to gangbang” someone with “several friends.”
Ocasio-Cortez’s pledge to gang bang the progressive agenda comes in the transcript of an extensive interview with the Post, in which she was asked about “conservative media” setting her up as “another boogeyman on the left.”
Democrats are known for their high moral character, said…nobody.
Well, maybe Democrats said that about Democrats but even Democrats known they’d be lying.
Ocasio-Cortez is riding high atop her “morally right” horse, while at the same time attacking fact checkers who call out her BS.

“There's a lot of people more concerned about being precisely, factually, and semantically correct than about being morally right,” @AOC says in response to criticism that she’s made factual errors. https://t.co/sKf3sHl9F6 pic.twitter.com/xKc2eB7GEk

Reactions:
Ocasio-Cortez, like every single member of her party, does not understand what it means to budget.
For some reason, spending countless trillions on liberal policies until the end of time is no problem whatsoever but $5 billion for the border wall is preposterous.
The Democrat Socialist’s proposed Green New Deal proposal would cost tens of trillions of dollars, and apparently has the support of over 40 Democrats in Congress.
President Trump was asked Alexandria.
His response was perfect. He only needed two words.
WATCH:
“WHO CARES?”
Classic Trump.
