GQ feeds the media creation generally known as AOC.

For somebody who graduated cum laude from Boston College in international research and economics, it’s curious how she appears to know nothing about both.

Extra essential, what has she achieved for the individuals who proceed to vote for her? What has she completed?

She desires to be president? Certain. If Joe Biden might be president, it might’t get a lot worse.

It's wonderful that AOC has the gall to say that she might by no means be president as a result of males hate ladies.

The reality is that they love ladies, however they do hate AOC and the progressive ideas that she stands for.

She championed bail reform and backed the decision for defunding the police. Neither of those stances endeared her to sincere, hardworking individuals who noticed and skilled the abuses introduced on our society by the absurd modifications to the bail legal guidelines.

As well as, whereas there are little doubt some police who're racists and shouldn't be of their positions of authority, the place would society be with out these women and men who put on the uniform and put their very own lives on the road daily?

AOC, we love and cherish ladies everywhere in the world — simply not these, such as you, who want to destroy society.
