22. Why?

Honestly this AOC fascination is bizarre. She needs to back up her talk and put her fire into action. If she was a frumpy looking 50 year old no one would even know who she was. I don't understand crowning her queen until she starts pushing real legislation etc. I hope she does but until she starts backing up her words I won't place all my hopes in her. And that applies to any elected official. They all need to put up or shut up. I'm sick of everyone's sound bites as the country suffers.


Whoopi can say what she wants and AOC can have the last word by putting her words into bills to solve our problems.
