A fact; if newly elected Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was 35-years-old and could run for the presidency, she would win hands down. The largest voting bloc in America belongs to millennials, and she would have nearly 100 percent of their vote. Most women, who are the majority of our population, would crowd the polls to elect this young woman who places people first. These two groups alone can decide every future election in America.

Republicans and their propaganda machine, FOX Noise, are aware of this fact and are very afraid of her growing popularity, and her position on the issues which are supported by most Americans. She hasn’t been sworn in yet and has been attacked by several FOX fake-journalists, Mike Huckabee, Lindsey Graham, and several other failed right-wing politicians. She responded to each and they found themselves unarmed in these short battles. The latest to make an attempt to win a battle of words with Ms. Ocasio-Cortez is Trump’s original paid liar, Kellyanne Conway.

The issue was a remark from outgoing Chief-of-Staff John Kelly about one-year ago. In a tweet she claimed that Kelly owes a black congresswoman an apology.

“White House chief of Staff John Kelly, a garbage person whose garbage comments about Rep. Frederica Wilson have, to date, been pretty much allowed to stand without consequence.”

In response Conway said that the 29-year-old Congresswoman-elect “knows nothing.”

Ocasio-Cortez’ response. “Kellyanne Conway has been engaged in a War on Facts since Inauguration Day. Leveraging those who belittle my capacity is exactly how I defeated a multi-generation, multi-million $ political machine. GOP is even weaker bc their bias has no self-control.”

I know that Conway hates this; facts are the greatest enemy of the right-wing. Her title in the White House is “Liar in Waiting.” Conway never met an alternative fact she didn’t love and repeat frequently.

The other thing Republicans hate is discussing the issues. Ms. Ocasio Cortez is constantly talking about healthcare, education, women’s rights, and defeating the NRA gun lobby. With her leadership more young men and women will follow her to the House and the Senate and our government will be repaired.
