New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez claims the Electoral College is a racist scam meant to benefit middle America according to an Instagram video posted earlier this week.
Demonstrating a breathtaking lack of intelligence regarding history and government, the Democrat communist took a video of sprawling fields and, much as a child would, sarcastically asked if the Electoral College system is the best means to elect a President.
“Alright everyone it’s been a minute. We’re coming to you live from the Electoral College,” she snidely commented as the video captured empty fields representing the American heartland.
“Many votes here, as you can see. Very efficient way to choose leadership of the country. I mean, I can’t think of any other way. Can you?” Ocasio-Cortez sneered.

The new face of the Democrat party went on to trash the Electoral College, enshrined in the Constitution by our founding fathers, as a “scam” filled with “racial injustice.”
“To all the Republicans getting big mad [because] the electoral college is, in fact, a scam,” she wrote as she shared an article meant to explain why the system is unjust.
“The Electoral College has a racial injustice breakdown,” Ocasio-Cortez concluded. “Due to severe racial disparities in certain states, the electoral college effectively weighs white voters over voters of color …”
There’s no nice way to put this: She’s not just wrong, she’s stupid.
The Electoral College is a system that prevents areas with massive populations – such as the liberal cesspools of New York and California – from exclusively deciding who leads the rest of the country. It gives voice to sparsely populated areas in middle America and levels out those from densely populated coastal elite locales.
New York is a microcosm of this – Governor Andrew Cuomo wins election every cycle because he captures areas such as Long Island, New York City, and areas in Buffalo, while the majority of the state overwhelmingly rejects him. These areas control what happens in the entire state, much to the detriment of upstate New York.
Conservative filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza has mocked Ocasio-Cortez and her lack of education for not understanding the importance of the Electoral College.
“The problem is today we don’t understand our schools don’t do a good job teaching the principles of the founding, so you can’t have an intelligent debate about the founding,” D’Souza said of the Representative.
It’s difficult to have an intelligent debate when the opposing viewpoint holder is as unintelligent as Ocasio-Cortez.
“I’m blaming her professors and I am blaming her,” D’Souza added.
Now the Democrat party is helping to amplify her lack of understanding on nearly every topic. Perhaps it’s time to start blaming them.
It should be noted that Ocasio-Cortez and the Democrat party’s disdain for the Electoral College has nothing to do with racism or representation. Were there any calls for it to be abolished after elections in 2008 and 2012 resulted in victories for Barack Obama? Do you think we’d be hearing about this kind of thing had Hillary Clinton won in 2016?
Of course not. They only want to tear down the institution because Donald Trump won. Period, end of story.

Oh, there’s just too many others, and I don’t have the time!
AOC which means “ARSE OF COMMENTERS”
Blunder Woman Cortez may have gone to school but she is living proof that she didn’t learn a thing!
It’s very hard to believe that this woman actually went to college! She speaks as though she is still in grammar school! A mind is a terrible thing to lose!
Uh, she might well be the classic example of a “college gradjdiot”! Like, Duh ?
When is this uneducated fool going to take a course in American History????
This bumbling, lying, hypocrite imbecile is a “racist scam against humanity” !!!!!!
AOC is the perfect example that you don’t make a career choice when you don’t the first thing about it!! Another example of her idiotic banter!! Give me a break! AOC, get educated or go back to bartending!!
Racism is all the squad talk about and if women of color. Sick of this!
Claims like this demonstrate her ignorance of American history as well as civics. I have read that NYT plans a fictional account of American history they call project 1619 in an effort to dumb down more people. This is what has become of our education system since the government started interfering. Students have to spend so much time on political correctness studies that there is not enough time left for history, civics, math, biology or actual education.
This faker, Cortez, A.O., is a product of her political party’s inferior process of vetting a legitimate candidate, for above all places of government, the U.S. Congress and the responsibility the title of U.S. Representative bears. Not only does she lack the least knowledge of our nation’s history, but she also contradicts the very oath of allegiance to our nation.
I do not vote in her NY District, but it is obvious that her ignorance, plus her obstinacy to admitting any faults on her part, informs any logical person, that she should be ushered out of the House of Representatives. She plots against our nation, between her gross ignorance and outright disloyalty to this nation, she must be impeached as a congressional representative.
AOC is such an idiot!
AOC better STFU and review some efforts that are going on right now….
When I was a prosecutor in Phoenix - I came across the murguia’s….All of them are POS’s and should be investigated immediately….
The dems allowed the companies to leave and actually paid and aided their move….It’s the dems loading up the courts with judges - lawyers and trash….
It’s the dems loading up the electoral college with their people…
It’s the dems going to other countries and seeking donations from their cartel brothers….
It’s the dems making deal under the radar with other countries…..You a**holes better look at the social security and medicare rolls FIRST - since ya’ll have been giving it to EVERY ILLEGAL THAT ENTERS THE COUNTRY……v2ps
So, does anyone remember all the screaming and shouting that the cackling evil witch went through when Candidate Donald Trump stated in one of the election debates (in response to the question of whether he would accept the election results when everything was said and done), “Well, we’ll have to wait and see.” The Left went into orbit criticizing Trump for DARING to QUESTION the integrity of the United States presidential election process (which would presumably include the Electoral College). I suppose rational consistency is not the Jackass Party’s strongpoint.
Besides, who CARES about what some idiot who doesn’t even know how to operate a garbage disposal thinks?
Yes, apparently her grade school teachers were into “social promotion” to protect her “self esteem”, and her college teachers were incompetent, so they SHOULD be blamed for graduating an ignoramus. However, she’s THE BOSS now of the Democrat party, she even said so herself. And, THE LEFT does NOT tolerate dissent, so all you Dems better tow the line and get with the program or AOC may come and “git” you !!! But, socialist/communist tyrannts have never murdered people, right ??
