She's becoming the voice of the real Left.

It sounds similar to Bernies voice.
Why on earth did you guys nominate hrc ? A corporatist, neocon on foreign policy, enabler of sexual predators to name three .
It still blows my mind. And you wonder how Trump got elected.

The DNC stated in court it has no obligation to put up the primary winner as the party's candidate.

The Wall Street/donor/"job creator" class decides who the system will vomit up as choice.

No, Don is not different, look closer, he's delivering for the same cabal she would have.

Uh, where did I mention Trump?

You asked the wrong question.

The question is: if Don is the same then what's your problem?

Socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is not happy that Amazon, the world's most valuable company, has decided to invest billions of dollars and bring approximately 25,000 jobs to New York City.

The 28-year-old bartender turned politician responded to the news that Amazon is bringing a second headquarters to NYC by claiming, without evidence, that her community is "outraged."

The Wall Street Journal reported Monday:

New York City and Northern Virginia will be the homes for Amazon.com Inc.’s second and third headquarters, according to people familiar with the matter, ending a more than yearlong public contest that started with 238 candidates and ended with a surprise split of its so-called HQ2.

Amazon is dividing the second headquarters evenly between New York’s Long Island City and Arlington County’s Crystal City neighborhoods, which are both located directly across from the major city centers. The company plans to evenly split the offices with as many as 25,000 employees.

The decision effectively gives Amazon a major presence in three coastal hubs that politically lean left, at a time when tech companies are under scrutiny for their perceived elitism and liberal social views.

"Amazon is a billion-dollar company," Ocasio-Cortez tweeted. "The idea that it will receive hundreds of millions of dollars in tax breaks at a time when our subway is crumbling and our communities need MORE investment, not less, is extremely concerning to residents here."

Ocasio-Cortez provided no evidence that residents in her district were angered by Amazon's decision. As for Amazon receiving tax breaks, the Journal only notes that the company's decision to open additional headquarters "has brought additional scrutiny to potential incentives Amazon might receive to locate in certain areas."

Ocasio-Cortez also suggested that Amazon employees should consider unionizing, despite Amazon's aggressive stance against unions.

"When we talk about bringing jobs to the community, we need to dig deep," she wrote. "Has the company promised to hire in the existing community? What’s the quality of jobs [and] how many are promised? Are these jobs low-wage or high wage? Are there benefits? Can people collectively bargain?"

When we talk about bringing jobs to the community, we need to dig deep:
- Has the company promised to hire in the existing community?
- What’s the quality of jobs + how many are promised? Are these jobs low-wage or high wage? Are there benefits? Can people collectively bargain?

"We’re talking about the single biggest economic development deal in the history of New York City," New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said on Monday.

Ocasio-Cortez, however, was only focused on campaign slogans, insisting that Amazon pay "their fair share."

"Lastly, this isn’t just about one company or one headquarters. It’s about cost of living, corps paying their fair share, etc.," she wrote. "It’s not about picking a fight, either. I was elected to advocate for our community’s interests - & they‘ve requested, clearly, to voice their concerns."

"The choice of its new office sites follows Amazon’s September announcement that it would raise its minimum wage for warehouse workers to $15 an hour," the Journal concluded. "Amazon also has announced major hiring plans over the past year as it builds out more warehouses and expands its U.S. workforce."

Rather than seeing this as an opportunity for more people in her community to be gainfully employed and the economy to improve, Ocasio-Cortez views it from a democratic socialist's lens: as an opportunity for a greedy corporation to take advantage of people.

Not sure why her handlers even let her make public statements. Hard to believe people actually voted for this nitwit.

I have no problem. Just bewildered dims would nominate a sexual predator enabler, neocon corporatist that is no different than Trump yet they complain about Trump. I would have thought they'd nominate the exact opposite.
Bernie would have been

That's the problem. She has no handlers yet.
What she really needs is a case worker.

Lol, you get stupider with each passing moment. Hillary's judicial nominees would have been nothing like Trump's, get real. That's just one example, Trump is nothing like Rotten Clinton.
