Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) held a town hall in her district last night and it turned into one for the books. Not because of any policy that she was trying to push but because of the reaction of one of the members of the audience.A woman stood up and began decrying climate change, saying we only had a few months left, and that Ocasio-Cortez wasn’t moving fast enough. Then it really went over the slide. Have a listen as she demands that in order to stop the CO2 we have to “eat the babies.”
One of Ocasio-Cortez's constituents loses her mind over climate change during AOC's townhall, claims we only have a few months left: "We got to start eating babies! We don't have enough time! ... We have to get rid of the babies! ... We need to eat the babies!" pic.twitter.com/uVmOnboluI— Ryan Saavedra (@RealSaavedra) October 3, 2019
Now we were really hoping someone was not that ill. The delivery and “even if we bomb Russia” would suggest that. She even had an “eat the babies” shirt. And this morning, the LaRouche group is saying she was a troll, part of their group.What's interesting here is AOC's reaction to the troll. She hadn't figured out it was a troll, but what she did not say is what any normal person would have said:
No, we don't need to start eating babies. What's wrong with you?
It was a huge missed opportunity for AOC to demonstrate that she's, well, normal. She didn't, and so it was a massive own goal. Alinsky smiles.
lol - You didn't really EXPECT AOC to act NORMAL; did you?
ReplyDeleteThat was hilarious!!!
ReplyDeleteI never would have guessed there was even a Larouche PAC still in existence, but it looks like they do some good work.
Maybe she thought it was just a modest proposal.
ReplyDeleteDo you mean to tell me he's not already working at the Babylon Bee?
ReplyDeleteThe name Larouche is certainly a blast from the past.
ReplyDeleteEvita Guevara-Castro never misses an opportunity to miss an opportunity.
ReplyDeleteInsanity is its own reward.
Why would she denounce that which she approves?
ReplyDeleteAOC IS normal...or, what passes for normal on the liberal left. It’s so bad now, that in order to maintain the narrative they have to believe in the absurd and ignore the obvious. I hate to say it, but this is what comes of making women “equal” to men, and putting them into positions of power and authority. This is not trolling or ridiculous for liberal women at all - they will go to court and take to the streets with pitchforks, torches and sickles - to protest for the right to murder their own babies with late term abortion. Women have gutted and destroyed the Democrats, and they will do the same to the nation if given the chance. You Americans really need to re-think that 19th Amendment thingie.
ReplyDeleteToo funny!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I can pile on AOC for this. She is not intelligent, so she can't think that fast on her feet. And this was so crazy that if it were me I might have been unable to say anything myself, just hoped she'd quietly just Go Away and plowed on.
ReplyDeleteAOC's spinning now, claiming that she didn't react because she's seen much crazier stuff on the subway.
ReplyDeleteIrrespective of the claim by LaRouche, I think the idiotic outburst was a rehearsed event designed to make Cortez appear as calm and cool if not normal. While she didn't say what stable persons would say she also didn't respond wildly. It was an attempt to re-image Cortez as a sympathetic statesman. After all, everyone and their brother knows Cortez is koo koo dingbat.
ReplyDeleteGiven that no dirty trick is beneath the commies and that they often perform the same trick repeatedly until exposed, I expect we'll see the same in the near future, or perhaps slightly modified. Whatever it will be, we can be assured it will generate fantastic new memes.
