Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was on Ru Paul's Drag Race this week!

I tape the show and watched it last night. I was surprised and thrilled to see AOC as a guest judge. I think she is absolutely beautiful, inside and out. The queens were quite impressed. and one got emotional, saying how much AOC and the other congresswoman of color have been an inspiration.

She broke social distancing protocol and her opponents in the election are probably thrilled with the footage that they can use in their campaigns. The optics of appearing on an entertainment show are poor considering that there is a national health emergency occurring.

I hope that the show was pre-recorded because AOC is providing a lot of ammunition to her opponents by elevating her social media presence during a time of crisis.

The voters in the Laredo area were too smart to fall for that foolishness.

She was elected to serve in Congress rather than serve as a judge on an entertainment program.

You spout off attacking AOC without the facts then refuse to delete your comment when corrected.

Are you sure you are a Democrat?

Sounds very Trumpian. Just sayin.

The queens were loving it and she clearly is a fan of drag race and drag queens. It was a love fest.
