Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is getting cranky with Republicans for pointing out when she makes mistakes. Hey, it’s not our fault that she says ridiculous things and proves time and time again she was not elected because of her knowledge of government or policy.
C’mon, she makes it too easy.
Watch.
Socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: "If we work our butts off to make sure that we take back all three chambers of Congress — Uh, rather, all three chambers of government: the presidency, the Senate, and the House."

Three chambers of Congress? Huh?
Wait, three chambers of government? Presidency, Senate, and the House.
Alrighty then.
What is a chamber of government, @Ocasio2018? ?? https://t.co/DNAQWIlbzm

And where is the Judicial?
Maybe instead of Republicans drooling over every minute of footage of me in slow-mo, waiting to chop up word slips that I correct in real-tomd, they actually step up enough to make the argument they want to make:
that they don’t believe people deserve a right to healthcare. https://t.co/fMOijEa7tF

Or maybe instead of ranting about things Alexandria doesn’t understand for whatever popularity contest she’s still running she should spend some time getting to know the fundamentals of our government and the policies that she wants to push.
And notice the word slip in her tweet …

Less being fabulous in social media and more getting to know what the Hell you’re talking about, Alexandria.
"Word slips?!" You don't even understand basic government functions. You lied about your background, you espouse entitlement programs that you have no idea how to fund. You are frightening.

She is terrifying, but not for the reasons she wants to be.
How are you planning to pay for “FREE” healthcare? You keep calling it “FREE” but someone has to flip the bill correct? Like hard working Americans? Higher taxes? And dont say tax the rich or take from the military because both ideas are absurd!

Seems she’s figuring out that being an elected official is actually a lot of work and puts her in a position for a good deal of criticism. She’s gonna have to suck it up.
Maybe it’s because you open your mouth like you KNOW, but you really don’t know!! Stop trying to lead something you don’t understand in politics and Govt. be happy you won the popularity votes, cause it wasn’t based on merit. Good luck trying to get anything passed.

Nothing wrong with being confident in your ideas, you just need to know what the Hell you’re talking about.
And she does not.
Clearly.
