Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez responds to her online haters.

@HoraceGreenley She is a leftist and they are liberals. They don't want a Berniecrat takeover of their party because they are moderates who are too close to wall street. It's because they fear her competence, not because they perceive her lacking it.

@Burnley123 The Dems are distancing themselves from her because her brand of Socialism won't play outside the Blue Blubble of Brooklyn and she says things that embarrass the party.

@HoraceGreenley Bernie won Democratic Primary votes in almost every mid-west state. People are pissed off with economic inequality and some of them have sussed out that the Conservative culture war is a distraction.

Let’s refine this. The moderates fear a reasonable literate knowledgeable younger leftist. AOC doesn’t qualify. Beto might but how does someone who lost the one race of his life run for President? @HoraceGreenley @Burnley123

@jackjjackson Beto is more of a moderate liberal. I don't hate the guy but he's not on the left of the Democrats. Beto has won other races and is a sitting Congressman.

How can people with less knowledge than her attack her for having a lack of knowledge? How can Trump supporters attack her for a lack of knowledge?

OK. A one term congressman. Big deal. He’s left not moderate. Doesn’t matter the dem moderates will eat AOS for lunch and she’ll be a barista after one term. @Burnley123

@jackjjackson Nah. She's in a Democrat safe seat and now has a big national profile at 28 years of age. Get used to her, cos she'll be around for a while.

A Latino socialist woman as POTUS one day? Imagine that. 😎

AOS will be primaried out of existence. I see Nikki Haley as the first woman president and a great one. @Burnley123
