AOC is actually the best democrat around, despite making a few dumb gaffes. If she would take a more sane stance on immigration, I would prefer her to just about every candidate out there
Agreed. I doubt she would support a decrease in immigration but her main opinion on it is probably that immigrants are being exploited by the upper class (which they are—that’s the entire point.) will she be smart enough to realize that open borders destroys labor? I hope so
she also isn’t that dumb at all. No more or less than your average politician, anyway. She’s just less polished. Sure her argument about the current system being more expensive than socialized medicine makes her sound dumb, but last year we just watched hundreds of politicians line up to say that a gigantic, historic tax cut would actually increase government revenue. That’s even more insane imo but they mostly got a pass on it
