'If we flip Texas, we flip the country': AOC says it's inevitable the Lone Star State will turn blue as she campaigns for two Democrat candidates in the 2022 midterms
2022-02-14
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Not quite, Ms Fancy Economics Degree. It’s all about the net flips in both direction — you can’t assume the Democrats will be able to cheat enough to hold all their current districts as well as adding more.
  • Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was in Texas on Saturday to rally for two Democratic candidates in their House races

  • She said if Democrats can flip the Lone Star State blue, then the rest of the country will follow

  • AOC campaigned for Democratic Congressional candidates Jessica Cisneros and Greg Casar on Saturday, who are running in blue districts already

  • Their victories would not change the makeup of their state but would help Democrats keep their razor thin majority in the U.S. House

#6  Sheter the Lesser9291, I'm sure that's what AOC thinks but that's not how I see it.

Lots of liberals think all is well in California. Conservatives think the place has become a hell-hole and will only get worse. I think Conservatives make up the bulk of those moving to Texas.

#5  Tyranny, in the Classic Greek meaning was the rule of a rabble-rousing 'Tyrant'. Were they 'noble selfless actors'? *Snicker* AOC is a card-carrying member of that odious group of corruptocratsâ„¢: she loves the proles as long as they pay for her Prada and Gucci fashions.

#3  Yup, Californians are fleeing the nest they fouled and setting up shop in Texas. Naturally, they will not change their voting patterns. They will destroy Texas and then move on. They don't care.

#2  AOC is not exactly a woman of the people. She's developed a taste for the attention, money and glitzy life in DC. Maybe she should wear one of those $30,000 dresses she is fond of. Be sure to tell the Texans that conservatives secretly lust for her. Be sure to tell the Texans about your goofy Green New Deal which would further put the country in debt forever.
