Former Obama speechwriter and current host of the Pod Save America podcast Jon Lovett will be interviewing socialist darling Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Friday, and he’s wondering if anyone has any questions they’d like to ask the congressional candidate.
HEY, we're talking to @Ocasio2018 tomorrow for Monday's @PodSaveAmerica. Anything you want me to ask? Before she destroys the midwest?
— Jon Lovett (@jonlovett) August 3, 2018
Hey, he asked. It turns out people on both sides of the aisle are a lot more skeptical than the media coverage would have you believe.

When you seize the means of production which industries will come first

Ask her why she thinks she has a mandate in winning an election w 11% turnout?
— Publius (@Publius_3) August 3, 2018
1. What is her policy on Israel? She had a bad answer in an interview, hope she did some research.
2. What does Medicare for All mean? Specific details. No “healthcare for all” vagueness please.
3. What’s her proposal to fund infrastructure?
4. What’s her #1 priority?— phdhp (@phddhpny) August 3, 2018
Ask her to prepare better for her interviews. Makes us all look like morons.
— Brendan Cunningham (@cunningham61) August 3, 2018
Will she do any campaigning in her district?
— Randy (@RandySF45) August 3, 2018
Exactly. Why is she nationalizing her campaign when I’m sure she’s been told that she’ll hurt other Democrats? Seems like she’s enjoying her soon to be notoriety? Also, she needs to study so she doesn’t make herself look foolish repeatedly. Why are YOU giving her a platform?

Does she wish *her* college education was free? She clearly wasted some long green at BU.
— Tim Blest (@shnysprmyz) August 3, 2018
Yes, where are we going to find $32 trillion to give every one in the US healthcare?

Is she going to pay higher taxes to help pay for her free everything plan? Or is she just exempt from that?

Ask her how many people socialism has killed.

The head of Venezuela just said that the Socialist model did not work. What makes her Socialism different?
— Grandpa Joe (@jfxmoynihan) August 3, 2018
Ask her about her take on the economy and the jobs report. Should be for a laugh. Oh yeah, and what she thinks about Venezuela finally admitting that socialism doesn’t work.
— allen honigman (@itrtgums) August 3, 2018
Tell her Canada isn’t socialist just because we have health care. I know it’s not a question, but just tell her anyway.
— Sacamano Sr.’s Tip Calculator (@DrooMaxwell) August 3, 2018
Does Ocasio think of herself as a brilliant maniacal manipulator just evoking envy & dark emotions in resentful people 2 form a mob 4 power? Or is she just proud 2 carry the banner & message of 20th century collectivist dictators (Hitler Stalin Mao) who murdered millions 4 power?
— Bruce Ambrose (@bruceami) August 3, 2018
Ask her to read Basic Economics by @ThomasSowell. If she refuses, ask her why she’s a racist…
