@kevcvs57 saidI think it will be those two, as well. It would be a good fight. Both are extremes in their genre (? for lack of a better word?)
I’d like to see Newsom V DeSantis in 2024 but then I don’t have to live there 🤷🏻♂️
@no1marauder saidLast year AOC predicted that America would not be a democracy in 10 years. And there are many links about her promising things as did Hitler.
I can pretty much guarantee you couldn't name a single policy she favors which would be "dictatorial" in the slightest degree.
Plus, she walks and talks like a dictator.
Why don’t you start a thread defending her, and we can go from there.

@jimm619 saidThis response is for @No1 as well.
Please point out exactly what she has
done that can be considered 'DICTATORIAL
Please......just one.;.'']
..........Written all over her, me arse. 😛
-----------------
To most people, a person that pushes for agenda items that are rejected by the constituents is a dictator. Here she is:
In response to a question about democratic socialism ultimately calling for an end to capitalism during a Firing Line interview on PBS, she answered: "Ultimately, we are marching towards progress on this issue. I do think that we are going to see an evolution in our economic system of an unprecedented degree, and it's hard to say what direction that that takes."[207] Later at a conference she said "To me, capitalism is irredeemable."[208] (Wiki)
Also, Alexandria is known to be against ICE, Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Also, "Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-New York) wants to eliminate air travel and fossil fuel-powered vehicles as part of her “Green New Deal.” (offthegrindnews.com)
I could keep going but I see enough already to establish that this woman is loose cannon and, if in charge,
will do anything she damn pleases, regardless the cries of foul from the constituents.
@earl-of-trumps saidWho do you hope the Dems will put up against EX-President Tantrump?
Poll: 71 Percent Say Biden Shouldn't Run Again in 2024
[i]A full 71% of Americans don't want President Joe Biden to run again in 2024, according to a new CAPS-Harris poll released Friday.
"President Biden may want to run again, but the voters say no to the idea of a second term, panning the job he is doing as president. [b]Only 30% of Democrats would even ...[text shortened]... ed similar sentiments in 2020 when Joe was elected. And I am SURE Harris won't be the choice, either
@earl-of-trumps saidPretty strange definition of a "dictator".

None of those proposals have anything to do with being a "dictator". Most are supported by a significant part of the population, if not a majority.
@no1marauder saidI think AOC would be a great President.
AOC will be 35 before January 2025.
Think she'd be "weak"?
@earl-of-trumps saidYeah at least it will be a definitive choice between to poles rather than the middling guy who doesn’t seem to please anyone.

@mchill saidIf you don't already, you should follow her on Twitter. It's amazing how many local events she does where she is right there with her People.
I think AOC would be a great President.
8 years of an AOC Presidency might renew faith in the US esp. among the young.
@kevin-eleven saidActually, the qualities we need in a president only seem to be those of Trump. I just hate it, but that is the way it is...who else can run things, change things, encourage success, and all that goes with it. Who else has experience in the WH? He won't have to learn his way around, and say "I'm President' every morning like the childlike Biden, he will get to work. He never sleeps.
Who do you hope the Dems will put up against EX-President Tantrump?
I aint crazy about the personality, either, but I am all about business. What are you fellers all about, other than free stuff?
So to answer your question, he will be a shoo-in, and your candidate will be irrelevant, just please get out of the way.

@no1marauder saidYes, the proposals do. Just how extreme do you want to hear it before you say, 'Well, I'll be darned, this person is on a very scary mission'. So you don't like capitalism? Ha, you tell us to follow her on Twitter!!,,,,and yet tell us in another post to get a life.!~~!!! Jesus. Like I said yesterday, you, McHill and the lot are becoming unravelled.

@averagejoe1 saidAfter four years of incompetence and embarrassing levels of corruption, the People wisely showed Trump the door. 61% in that poll don't want him to run again.

If Republicans are foolish enough to run him again, he'll be soundly beaten.

@kevcvs57 saidWhich is exactly what a healthy democracy does not need.

@AverageJoe1 - Plus, she walks and talks like a dictator.
lol, I can picture AOC with this little Hitler mustache yelling orders at folks. Oh man.
