Although I don't necessarily agree with all of her opinions I love the fact that she has completely unnerved the Republican Party and FOX News anchors.
It doesn't hurt that she comes from the same part of the Bronx that I come from. That is how I first heard of her and first donated to her campaign when she ran in the primary.

With a little bit of help from Nancy Pelosi she is on track to be in Congress for a long time to come.

Hopefully Nancy will take her under her wing and AOC will be a good student.

As for making Trump look like a genius, that will never happen!

My dog is smarter than Trump.

Let's first stipulate that NO one makes Trump look like a genius.

You don't like her politics? Tough shit, that doesn't make her an idiot.

At the very least she won't be sending any threatening letters to schools to intimidate them to suppress release of her grades.


Ocasio-Cortez attended Yorktown High School, graduating in 2007.[20] She came second in the Microbiology category of the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair with a microbiology research project on the effect of antioxidants on the lifespan of the nematode C. elegans.[21]

In a show of appreciation for her efforts, the International Astronomical Union named a small asteroid after her: 23238 Ocasio-Cortez.[22][23] In high school, she took part in the National Hispanic Institute's Lorenzo de Zavala (LDZ) Youth Legislative Session.

She later became the LDZ Secretary of State while she attended Boston University. Ocasio-Cortez had a John F. Lopez Fellowship.[24] In 2008, while Ocasio-Cortez was a sophomore at Boston University, her father died of lung cancer.[25][26] During college, she served as an intern in the immigration office during the final year of U.S. Senator Ted Kennedy's tenure.[27]

"I was the only Spanish speaker, and as a result, as basically a kid—a 19-, 20-year-old kid—whenever a frantic call would come into the office because someone is looking for their husband because they have been snatched off the street by ICE, I was the one that had to pick up that phone," Ocasio-Cortez said. "I was the one that had to help that person navigate that system."[27]

She graduated cum laude from Boston University's College of Arts and Sciences in 2011, majoring in international relations and economics.[24][28][29]

*an ... One uses "an" before words that start with a vowel, and "a" for words that start with a consonant sound.

Since idiot starts with a vowel, you "idioted" again. Hope this helps.

It really didn't add to your credibility in calling her an idiot with improper usage of a very simple rule.
