    Ignorant or disingenuous, I don't know but the last I knew the Affordable Care Act was still up and running. Folks on the left touted it as the greatest thing since sliced bread, is the dumb as a bag of hammers Cortez calling Obama Care a failure? Everyone can afford an Obama Care policy, I had one for $89 a month. Cut off the Cable TV and trade in the smart phone for a flip phone and you'd have more than enough for an Obama Care family plan.

    Once again, AOC's mere existence trolls the RW out of their minds.

    AOC playing the RW like a violin.

    Why is the RW so easy to troll?

    She is a well known supporter of Medicare for All. But thank you for your defense of Obamacare. It was an important improvement.

    Actually you trade in your smartphone for a free Obama smartphone.

    Just about every illegal alien and homeless person in California has an Obama smartphone today.

    She represents the highly educated and intellectually elite so well, doesn't she?

    She's the Rodney Dangerfield of politics, except no one is laughing with her, we're laughing at her. She's yours, own it.

    I don't know if they're doing it "to upset the RW", but they have definitely elected (and re-elected) some pretty flawed candidates.

    She's infuriating, she's not a troll. I think to myself: I'm far smarter, far more capable. How is SHE in the House and I'm here commentating on it?

    Obviously you are low income. It's higher income people paying exorbitant rates that fund your subsidized policy.

    Well that's simple. She was a waitress. Obviously more qualified to be a democrat than you are.

    True.

    She is the 24/7 Troll that lives rent-free in the heads of the RW.

    "I don't think that [low unemployment] tells the whole story," Ocasio-Cortez said. "When you can't provide for your kids working a full-time job, working two full-time jobs, when you can't have health care; that is not dignified."

    Life isn't fair, and that's our fault as individuals a lot of the time. Stupid decisions, lack of ambition, having an attitude of entitlement and dependency...

    A nanny state isn't going to fix the problem.

    When I was a kid, my brother always heard my Dad coming before I did when doing something we shouldn't do. When I would complain that brother was doing it too, Dad would always say..."yea, but I caught YOU". When I would protest "that's not fair", he would lecture me the only thing "fare" in life is the money you put in the box to ride the bus.
