The latest uppity woman
There's been a lot in the news lately about how Republican lawmakers have been concentrating their criticisms on new congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. The latest .... they have come down on her for a video from her college years in which she and other students are dancing to old John Hughes' movies.
From The Guardian ... An attempt to humiliate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on the day she was sworn in as the youngest ever US Congresswoman has backfired impressively, prompting a huge outpouring of support for her.
Republican dopes - did they never see Footloose? ;)
Some have tried to figure out why the Republicans are so fixated on Ocasio-Cortez. My theory is that they just really hate to see an unapologetically intelligent, confident, liberal female rising to a position or respect and power. In short, AOC is the latest (after Nancy Pelosi) uppity woman.
Deal with it, jerks :)

I'm sure part of the reason they pick on Ocasio-Cortez is her ethnicity. Now they have another one they can love to hate, Rashida Tlaiz, who droped the m-f bomb. Not that Trump hasn't said worse. What really raises his blood pressure is that she said the i-word.
Oops, I spelled her name wrong, it should be Tlaib.
Yes, the "I" word that he fears so much, as he should. The younger Democrats definitely seem less constrained by decorum ;)
Thinking more about Alexandria, she's like the total opposite of the Republican's idea of the perfect woman - that controlled Aryan manikin, Ivanka.
