Friday

with AOC since she was first elected. A political rock star with smarts and flair! Of course, the GOP cadavers in Congress have tried over and over to convince the public that she is a lightweight. Ironically, some of her most strident critics have been the stupidest males in that body. Afraid she needs to move on to the Senate for a time before taking a run for the White House.
