Incompetent UNelected Official Of The Month: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

/ Jack Marshall / 27 Comments

The new darling of progressives and Democrats, New York Democratic congressional candidate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, is uninformed and currently, if not permanently, unqualified for office, and not just because she embraces the proven fraud of socialism. Two recent quotes suffice to make the case:

“Unemployment is low because everyone has two jobs. Unemployment is low because people are working 60, 70, 80 hours a week and can barely feed their family.”

This is redolent of Yogi Berra’s famous line about nobody going to a famous restaurant any more because it was too crowded. Does she really think that if one person worked 327 million jobs, the stats would show full employment? Apparently so. Aw, unemployment, underemployment, what’s the difference? Capitalism BAD!

Now THIS Is An Unethical Candidate…

Now try not to look creepy, Nathan…

Ah, Virginia, my home away from home!

Nathan Larson, a 37-year-old accountant from Charlottesville, Virginia, is running for Congress as an independent. He admits to being a pedophile,and that he created two websites  as gathering places for pedophiles and violent misogynists. Larson has published essays about father-daughter incest and  raping his ex-wife, and coyly admitted that there were “grains of truth” in both.

According to his campaign platform, Larson is a “quasi-neoreactionary libertarian” who favors “benevolent white supremacy,” as well as legalizing incestuous marriage and child pornography. He wants Congress to repeal the Violence Against Women Act, and explains, “We need to switch to a system that classifies women as property, initially of their fathers and later of their husbands.”

I love this quote, in the context of his conduct and beliefs:

“A lot of people are tired of political correctness and being constrained by it. People prefer when there’s an outsider who doesn’t have anything to lose and is willing to say what’s on a lot of people’s minds.”

I don’t think opposing incest, rape, white supremacy and sex slavery is “political correctness,” Nathan.

And you thought Roy Moore was bad!
