AOC is my Spirit Animal.

Like every politician she will eventually disappoint, but right now she is the best hope we've got for the future of this country.

Smart. Tenacious. Moral clarity.

Godspeed, ma'am.

Oh boy! Admitting in public that your spirit animal is an eloquent Tankie. That is brave.

She doesn't sound like a tankie to me.

I don’t have Instagram. Nor I must admit do I have depth of knowledge of the US, but what I have seen of AOC is impressive in presentation, poor in logic.

For example, of all the things that could be said about Trump, she apparently led on the private sector (shock horror!) being involved in deportations of illegals.

On Ukraine she opposed the seizing the frozen assets of Russian oligarchs linked to President Vladimir Putin so the funds could be used to help Ukraine.

She also pushed for Biden to enter direct talks with Putin to bring about a ceasefire and peace, as if the only thing needed to stop Putin was a phone call 🤷‍♂️

On Ukraine, her position seems inconsistent, insincere and self-serving.

She seems to have been against Assad, but also against US involvement in Syria 🤷‍♂️

Looking at Wikipedia, her policy positions are loony left.

I get it that Trump is a nut, but choosing the other end of the horseshoe doesn’t appeal to me.

Her voting record on #Ukraine is quite good.

But not a perfect record, as I say, inconsistent.

Typical Tankie 🤡 wanted to prevent cluster munitions being sent to Ukraine. Nice to take a pacifist stance whilst you, your country and loved ones are not under attack, only another country defending itself from genocidal aggression (which she refuses to acknowledge). 😡

Willing to defund Ukraine in order to spite Israel in its defence against Iranian backed terrorists.

Bizarrely jointed forces with MGT to protect Russian oligarchs.

The more I look, the less I like.
