    Fear not folks. She will become your normal, shuck and jive DC politician, and pretend like she is representing the socialists, while doing nothing of the sort. If she can return to office a few times, she will be another millionaire once she leaves office, and once again americans who voted for change as they did with obama, will not see any change to speak of. She will be just as self serving as the rest of the millionaires in DC. A ruling elite, above those they will never represent.

    After seeing what she campaigned on, (and I am an FDR kinda guy) she is far to radical in an idiot's manner than I could ever support of vote for. Plus, she seems not to be that intelligent, or perhaps she is, and is doing a confidence game on poor folks.

    While I contributed to the sander's campaign, and supported his run against hillary, at least sanders spoke out against illegal immigration as hurting working americans, and something the Koch boys wanted, as he understood like an FDR democrat did, that illegal aliens hurt working americans. And sanders has never wanted to nationalize our economy, as a real socialist would want. He understands it takes capitalism to finance an expanded Commons. Not that much difference between the democratic socialist sanders and an FDR democrat. Who understands that if elites are given their little heart's desires, they would create as much income disparity, in their favor as possible, before revolution broke out. The current form of capitalism, uses gov't as they tool, to only enrich themselves, and to be able to play outside of the basic principles of capitalism, as embraced by our founders. I think earlier leaders saw capitalism as a superiour tool in making america great, not just for our elites, but an optimal number of our population, working people. Well, now capitalism is structured to create optimum income disparity and max profits for the top few, forsaking any morality, social responsibility and ethics, in the worship of maximization of their own profits and wealth, with a foundation of what amounts to slave labor, the exploitation of other human beings, for greater profits. And both parties support this and gave it to us. Granted it arose from the GOP, once they got some power back, but it didn't take long for the DP to support the same economic treason on most of america, and stop representing working americans.

    The end result was the loss of Republicanism, of the masses being represented in DC, and a turn towards what appears to be a form of fascism, Oligarchy, or something similar. The United States of Predatory Globalistic Capitalism. Conducted in only the interests of a few elites, as it has weakened this nation, and removed the ladder up from poverty, by hard work of our citizens. Ortez will be just another ruling elite, lying to her constitutents, like most of DC is.

    That's your interpretation; mine is that she'll be staying in NY until she receives her first check and this way if the press is curious as too why she isn't in Washington, DC hobnobbing like the rest of the newly elected, now at least they'll know why.

    It is a great thing to see that someone should be elected who is not a millionaire.

    Not like that at all. Cruz is married to a Goldman Sachs exec who thumbs her nose at a Senate salary.

    Out of state money flows directly or indirectly to candidates of all three political parties.

    If you do not believe that wait to see if Putin and the Russian oligarchs.

    THE WEEKLY STANDARD JUST BIT THE DUST.

    Narrator voice: There is some evidence that being perpetually never-Trump may have played a factor. QED:
