    Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez slammed the media for talking up a 2020 White House run instead of her policy ideas


    "Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez criticized the media for talking her up as a potential candidate in the 2020 elections instead of focusing on her policy ideas...

    "Can we instead talk about healthcare, a living wage, legalizing cannabis, GND, & other issues?...

    GND refers to the Green New Deal, a federal plan to address climate change by investing in infrastructure. The policy is one of her signatures, along with issues like immigration reform, fully funded schools and universities, Medicare for all, and the legalization of cannabis."

    Right on!






    Any politician that wants legalized weed I like.
    Interesting. Somewhat different than what you’ve said before. 
     
    Actually, if you think Trudeau actually legalized weed, you are clueless...the black market continues to flourish....
    I think you don’t understand the meaning of the word “legalize”, then. 

    And your many comments against legalization in Canada on the basis that it should never have been illegal fly in contrast to your comments about pro-legalization politicians now. Doesn't your reasoning also apply to the US?
      

    It should have never been illegal in the first place.  Why do you self-righteous people take one simple comment twisted it around?  You are a real piece work...you are a borderline troll.  Go to the AMT marijuana thread and debate it.  Do your research, quit talking out the ass.
    Ha ha!

    You're priceless 
    Here the thing.  Why do not head to the Marijuana thread and prove to me I'm ... You can't.  You worship at the ass of Trudope.  Like I said you are a self-righteous person, not capable of an educated discussion.  You have been called out on these forums by other members for being self-righteous.  You think you'd hint.  You will not debate the topic because I can post multiple articles about how fucked legalization is.  Have you ever smoked marijuana?
    As for the actual debate about legalization, don’t you remember? We already had that debate. You lost. 

    I, and pretty much everybody else in the discussion, was pro-legalization. You were pro-time machine.

    And boo someone just because she exists.

     Bullying? To boo? No it isn’t.

    but to boo someone being sworn in is just pathetic and small.

    People get booed all the time.  Kawhi Leonard was just booed last night and Ella Mai get's boo'd up whenever she performs.

    I've never booed anyone in a meeting or for someone getting a job whom I didn't like. it's unprofessional and childish in that setting.

    If anyone actually has footage of Fox news going after her for the "dance" video please put it up.

    All I have found was a few conservative mouthpieces tweeting about it.

    Thanks

    The media is being ridiculous with that - she's 100% right. FFS, she wouldn't even qualify because of the minimum age requirement of 35, lol.

    Again, I've literally only seen 1 tweet that was negative.  

    I'm wondering if the story is just getting recycled at this point and making it bigger than the one tweet I saw?

    Yes, they really are. It would be really funny if it wasn't so scary and depressing and offensive. (Tempo, I think we're talking about the whole picture with this comment, not the dancing thing).
