But honestly this pales in comparison to the greatest self-own in the history of self-owns, the Green New Deal. I don't think Republicans could have wished for a better gift if they'd tried. Here you've got a ditzy, clueless backbencher who constantly says stupid things and seems primarily focused on destroying her own party. And she writes a bill that does everything Republicans always promised Democrats wanted to do -- pass a whole bunch of transformative social legislation under the thinnest possible guise of being tangentially related to climate policy, and spend tens of trillions of dollars to do it, all while arguing that "money isn't real." And she's all over TV telling people that "climate policy is socialism" and "yes my bill is socialism and all the Democrats support it." And she's slapping her Green New Deal label on literally every climate policy anyone else proposes and being so loud about it that she drowns out all the conversation. I mean this is a Republican dream come true. They've completely won the political battle here because they can just keep saying "Green New Deal Green New Deal Green New Deal" every time Democrats want to talk about climate change. Everyone hates the Green New Deal and AOC, but now she's the face of the climate change movement, and her stupid bill is the only climate change proposal anyone knows about. Great going guys. That's us completely f---ed for the next decade.
Okay, now tell us how you REALLY feel about Ocasio-Cortez.
