    She is really vibrant. We need more of her kind running. I really appreciated her insight into why our current unemployment rate is down so low. More people are working two jobs.

    I'm not sure why people feel the need to tear down young civic minded people. Disagree with their political ideas? Totally ok and natural. No need to tear down a young woman who is making an attempt to be politically active.

    Honestly, many politicians in NY or CA tend to already share views like her - only they don't parade out in the open like she does.

    I guess my problem with people like her is that they tend to support or enact policies that sound good but have disastrous long term effects which, ironically, ends up hurting the people they are meant to help. For example, look at all those politicians in San Francisco, whose various policies over the years made it harder for people in Oakland and made it so the income disparity grew. Same thing happens in Portland (who attempts to replicate the San Francisco model) and with that comes rising costs of living, zoning laws, homelessness, scaring away businesses, destruction of the middle class, making certain parts of Portland economically worse, etc.

    Essentially, these Ocasio-Cortez types read a few theories and crunched a few numbers and now assume that it equates to understanding the complexities of life. I don't think it ends well if they get ever into power.

    On that note, in the coming years, I do think it will be somewhat amusing when Russians and the Chinese try to hack and interfere to push candidates like her into power as part of their geopolitical playbook. A lot of the roles and reactions we see today are going to be reversed.

    I feel the need to tear down 99.9999 percent of all politicians.

    She ain't special.

    She’s already proven she’s just a naive puppet for Soros, a pretty girl with a nice smile, a minority but “white enough” to get votes. She has shown she knows nothing of politics, world affairs, US history, or basic math. She’ll go far.

    Haha seriously, ignore what is actually happening and come up with some conspiracy that might happen. On that note I'm sure the end game of all the Russians and Chinese is to make sure our population is educated and healthy. That will show us. Those long term effects would surely be disasterous.

    Somebody in this forum literally called these Russians "heroes"...

    Much more of a disrespect to our nation than taking a knee...

    In hindsight after reading it, he could be calling the people who want to punish the Russians "heros".

    Bottom line, he sees capitulation as an option and no one will believe anything about the mounting evidence against Trump.

    If Trump is in Putin's pocket what can Trump do to hurt us? Leave Putin alone?

    Explain all the different scenarios, nobody has yet.

    Really? He's gonna lift sanctions that we placed on Russia for invading a sovereign nation.
    This is costing Russia serious money and Trump is pretty much about to aid and abet a robbery.
    They were kicked out of the G-8 for this and now Trump wants to just let them back in. Fuck that.
    It's bullshit and isn't the only reason why working with our ENEMIES and slapping the shit out of our allies is bad foreign policy..
