‘I am told this is a garbage disposal. I’ve never seen a garbage disposal. I never had one in any place I’ve ever lived. It is terrifying. I don’t know what it’s for, or what its purpose is. Like, food scraps? Like, is this environmentally sound?’

It's like she has never lived in the real world. Is she trying to play the "I had a poor family" card? My family had a garbage disposal in the early 60's. We were lower middle class at best. I cannot believe she is that stupid.

Where has she been all her life?

She is a puppet. Her and her kind get elected by doing what their big money handlers tell them. Questions have pat answers. It scares the crap out of their handlers when the teleprompter screws up and/or they go off script.

"please tell me how she got elected again"

Is this a trick question ?

Because she got 110,000 votes out of 140,000.

(she hasn`t been elected but once so far)

Rob I believe his statement is “tell me once again how she got elected”not how she got elected again. That is the way I read it.
And I think he knows the votes but can’t understand how so many could be so Dumb/Blind to vote for like her.  2funny 2funny

Thats my take on it too. Regarding AOC, One really has to wonder about what goes on in some heads. I can not understand how she got elected, even in NY.

It’s hard to take anyone seriously when every few words are “like”...I guess public speaking is not a required course for some socialists.

I think the Dems are giving the Tweedle-Dumbs...and creepy Uncle Joe, the free reign to crash and burn so they have enough time to clear the debris field for a serious run at 2024...The DNC already know they don't stand a chance for 2020. With old white guy candidates leading the polls against the "oppression olympics" candidates, they have nothing but losers all around.

She got elected because she was managed in a way that got her elected. She doesn't have any appreciable experience to qualify her for this job of MAKING LAW. But she does connect with a broad set of demographics within her base.

She is being handled by political operatives from the far left DNC. She does appear formidable to her base constituents (those who voted for her) when she stays on script but languishes badly when left to her own devices or freelances it. She just doesn't have the experience. Frankly, few people her age do.

She likely gets most of her global perspective from CNN. And right there is the problem.

I have never had a garbage disposal unit, that's what dogs , cats , and hogs are for. If you had a septic system you had to be prudent with what went down the drain. Even today, I don't like using them but I should get points for knowing that they exist and how they operate.

these are her handlers https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justice_Democrats

this is her and their agenda and were she gets her 12 yrs from
https://www.thenewamerican.com/tech/environment/item/22267-un-agenda-2030-a-recipe-for-global-socialism

it is amazing how the news media is silent on this.
Earlier today, The Washington Examiner reported that the Federal Elections Commission (FEC) will be investigating Saikat Chakrabarti, who currently serves as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s current Chief of Staff, for funnelling $1 million of donations to his own private companies through the use of two political action committees that he founded. Both Chakrabati and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have been named respondents in this FEC complaint about the mismanagement of these PAC funds.

Chakrabarti started the PACs “Brand New Congress” and “Justice Democrats” in 2016 and 2017 respectively. Shortly after the formation of the PAC in 2016, he went on to start the Delaware based company “Brand New Campaign LLC” which the FEC has reported had nearly $605,000 transferred to it from his other PACs for reasons such as “strategic consulting.” In 2017, Chakrabarti started a second company, Brand New Congress LLC (which, it should be noted, appears to lack registration in any state) to which he moved even more funds from the political donations he acquired.

In answer to the original question.... she got elected because she had a D after her name.

Just like many R's get elected because they have an R after their names.

It's not rocket science.  It's not science at all.

Dead people have been elected in just this way.  (remember that in many cases, the election of a dead person results in an appointment of another individual of the same party, at least until a new election)

http://mentalfloss.com/article/26281/4-dead-politicians-who-still-got-elected

I would vote for a dead R over (almost) any live D.  And I'm sure some would go the other way.

My local Gov district can't get an R elected.  The R party doesn't even try (or fund) anymore, so the Rs we get are young and self funded.  I vote for them.  When no R appears on the ballot at all, I write in The Easter Bunny (several times now).

You might think me close minded or callous, but I'm not.  I do my homework, and I'm certain The Easter Bunny would represent me better than the D.

(There's a bunch of really disturbing Easter Bunny memes, so I didn't post one)

My understanding is the OP didn't start a political thread.  He was merely pointing out en educated woman who must have lived a very sheltered life as to not have ever seen, or heard of, a garbage disposal.
