She's shockingly uneducated and has no place in Congress. Sure you can hold it up as a cool thing that someone like that can win it doesn't mean it's a good thing she actually did.

How is she uneducated? She won a free and fair election and there is no legal grounds you could refuse to seat her.

It isn't her politics, it's her IQ.


How does she have a low IQ?

Time exists in the sense of the arrow of entropy exists in one direction and progresses in that sense.

Quantumly, there's no need for time to flow in one direction and you would be (mostly) correct.

Republicans would never agree to that because it would mean they would never get the majority in many states or in Congress very often.

The democrats wouldn’t be for it either. Because they would lose power as well.

For example if you had 45 Democrats, 44 Republicans, 7 Libertarians, 3 Greens, and 1 Constitution in Congress then the Republicans-Libertarians-Constitution Coalition would have 54 and the majority.

How is it stupid to say that unemployment figures have been artificially dropped because there are people having to work multiple jobs to make ends meet?

Yes, she does.

How is it dumb to call out the obscene rent in major cities? She said she can't afford a apartment in DC until her salary kicks in. DC is one of the most expensive cities in the country

I wasn't even talking about that but okay.

If she can't even manage her own personal finances then I doubt she should be managing the country's finances.

And besides, I'm sure if she wanted to she could afford an apartment in the poorer parts of DC. But like any good socialist she doesn't want to live among the people she claims to represent.

Its not a question of managing her finances.

How awful she's not making 70,000 dollars a year. Obscene rent is part of the reason people like her dont run for office very often and win.
