Easy win for Trump in 2024.

I'll take that bet Grin

When people reference Marjorie Taylor Greene as a right wing nut job (which she totally is), I don't think they realize AOC is on the same level with the amount of dumb shit she says on a routine basis. And because the way the media works, I don't think I've ever seen anyone ask her any tough questions on her stupid proposals ever. So moral of the story, people on the left and right have lost their minds and it's the ordinary average Americans that suffer from the tribalism.

There is a big difference between being dumb and having opinions that you don't like. I don't like AOC, and I don't like McConnel (or rather their political positions; I don't really know them personally) but I think both are quite intelligent. I think MTG is genuinely crazy or acts crazy to pander to the base, same thing. I've noticed that AOC is a favorite villain for right wing media but when you dig into what she's actually saying - there is nothing on the level of Jews using space lasers to start wildfires. There are some fabricated quotes being attributed to her, maybe that's what's confusing you.

Exactly this.

Equating AOC to MTG is just as wrong as saying Biden and Trump are equally bad when it comes to sexual assault allegations and serves only to make make Democrats appear worse and Republicans less awful than reality.
