How many times have you saw a congressman who has only been in Congress a few months that is as well known as Alexandria Ocasio Cortez? Do you think it’s because people like her or because they think she’s a radical extremist? Or perhaps both?

She is just entertainment, she went to the dark side with Bernie

The comment about the 3 billions tax relief to amazon that we should reinvest in whatever..... was enough for me.

And she’s definitely one of those who can’t.

Anderson Cooper did a great job of not allowing his eyes to pop out when she did the interview with him, telling him she is coming for the rich (he is rich). She has never been interviewed by anyone with gloves off so I really think her balloon is going to burst soon, she will crash into reality and she will not be able to bullshit her varying truths out of it. She is good at media and is the antidote to Twitter Trump but she is thick as pigshit so everyone wants a ringside seat to watch her fall. It is the times. Its almost like we haven't been to war (real WW2 stuff) for so long that people want to tear everything down cos its in the genes.

She is young and attractive and is pandering to younger generation. Most of her ideas are pie in the sky dreams that many of the younger generation flock to. It has no requirement to be factual or useful much like all dreams but it is the world that that generation lives in.

It's because she is a young, obnoxious, ethnic woman with a very striking appearance. She checks all the boxes and the camera loves her. You don't need to be smart or logical or even coherent to be a darling of the left, because the left is neither logical nor coherent. In other words, she is the perfect representation of what the far left has become.

People like her because she is not like the stereotyped politician: fat, male, ageing, multi-millionaire who is more focussed on massing campaign contributions than on implementing good policy.

The radicalism she advocates for is getting her attention. People what socialism in America, as absurd as that sounds - socialism is attractive, she is attractive - it is no surprise. However I highly suggest her followers (and Sander's) research the dangerous idea of socialism by looking at history, statistics, basic maths and hell even a small economic video to explain why no model as of yet can replace Capitalism.

Capitalism is the only model that has worked from and economic aspect to the technological aspect. When people say: "the Internet started from socialism" it is just stupidity. Yes it technically was but it did not start becoming more sufficient until other companies, entrepreneurs started investing into the platform/s.

She’s nothing but a media creation who will be thrown overboard as soon as she loses her new car smell.

It's definitely a little bit of both, but I tend to think it leans a little more towards extremism..

She’s great with social media, a voice for the younger vote and, let’s be honest, a good looking woman. If she looked like Liz Warren she wouldn’t be receiving 25% of the attention she gets today.

She's young, so the Democrats are trying to get her name out there more due to the fact she could have a potentially lengthy career in politics.

sadly, I think the conservative fascination with her lunacy has given her more limelight than the left.
