Yet, Ben offered AOC $10k to debate him, and she turned it down. Why was that? It's because she knew that she stood no chance in the debate. Her arguments for the Green New Deal are stupid. It's why it was voted down in congress.


I wouldn't bother debating a disingenuous dumbass either. She has better things to do.

I fail to understand why AOC keeps getting pumped into the spotlight, other than the media's attraction to radicals, who's ideas are pretty out there. I don't think anything about her, other than:
1. Joke, who was elected....somehow, in a small district, while the voters were complacent.
2. She's no economics genius.
3. She's a one and done and soon we'll be moving on to the next flavor of the month.
4. I'm sure she's good for something....pour me a beer or make me a sammich!

You’re an absolute moron. Go back to hanging around the DMV parking lot.

She ignored him because he’s a nobody. He challenged her to a debate because he wants attention.

If he wants to debate her he should run for office and win like she did.

It's mostly neurotic conservatives who keep dragging her back into the spotlight by purposefully twisting or exaggerating what she says.

Also, number 4 on your list kinda proves the point... there's a passive-aggressive sexism in the right's obsession with AOC (and Omar, for that matter). The scariest thing in the world to a modern social conservative man is a liberal woman who won't take his bullshit.

AOC is a god.
Heck... she has her own logo "AOC", kinda like the artist Prince had.
The_Artist_Formerly_Known_As_Prince.png
And like the word god, her logo also contains only three letters.
And as far as statements concerning FDR goes, I'd believe her version over that of history.
I mean, how can we trust history? Were we there?
I think she's correct on that, and even if she's not then just say she is correct.
After all, we all know how that works in this era of Trump politics.

Actually what AOC stands for is for the true America.
An America of immigrants, an America of mixed religious beliefs, and an America that may have no religious beliefs and that just fine.
An America of mixed race, of mixed skin color, an America mix of the entire planet.
An America of men and women including "other" i.e. none of the above.
"Some" believe we can MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN by regressing back to our past. Well....
America has always been a nation of immigrants, so exactly where in the past do these make America great againers want to take us? Back to some America that never really existed in the first place?
Back to their delusional FAKE AMERICA?

AOC is god like only because she can both envision the future AND grasp the reality of today.
There is no white only America, never has been never will be.
You can't convince 61 million Americans that they don't exist as Trump republicans would like to believe.

Wait, you mean the modern US conservative isn't just out of his league in basics such as facts and information about a person he's attacking, but also a clear misogynist scumfuck? Say it ain't so!

The right wing loves to attack her in the media. They've elevated her to the status of Commie bogeyman.

Her district has about the same population as every other Congressional district in the country. It's strongly democratic. Unless somebody primaries her like she did Joe Crowley she might serve as their Rep for the next 50 years.

Suck it up, buttercup.

man, this really is a lot of desperate stretching for retard republicans to claw the absolute tiniest morsel of "scandal!" out of dem ebil liberals; all while they are absolutely buried by the historically titanic shitpile that is their GOP leadership and their own failing ideology.

you're a fucking idiot, OP.

The whys and wherefores of 2 term limit on the presidency are debatable, but I think it's a decent idea. One problem with it is that we get a wave effect, especially with the obtuse system we have in the USA which makes 3rd parties all but moot. 2 years of R, 2 years of D, etc., it's like waves breaking on a beach.

FDR was a specific phenomenon. The Great Depression, followed by the worst war in history. We kind of needed him. We don't need that kind of leadership now. I am glad that for sure, Trumpet-mouth can't serve more than 2 terms. A 2nd would be a doh! moment for America, as if the 1st weren't.

We need to have ranked choice voting for president in America!

Windmills cause cancer.

Nononono .. to be FAIR to Trump .. he did say the NOISE causes the cancer ... (a pcgeek point)... I dont know how that makes it in anyway better - actually you'd think it'd make it worse!

Yet, here you are. How many debates have you been in? Could you 'ahem' kindly tell us?
I could show up to a debate with Ben Shapiro so drunk I couldn't walk and I would still present logical arguments 10 times more coherent than the shit that nitwit says. The reason AOC won't debate him is the same reason you don't play chess with a pigeon, they just shit all over the place and strut around like they won. The only people that think Shapiro would do anything other than look like a fucking retard is because fucking retards look at those people and call them fucking retards.
