Goro tell me one intelligent thing AOC has ever done.
Graduated with honors with a dual major (international relations and economics) from an elite university. I don't agree with her politics, but anyone who thinks she isn't intelligent likely scrapes their knuckles when they walk.
That's similar to how I feel about John Boehner, disagreed with him a lot, yet I madly respect how he did actual hard physical work to afford a better living, unlike many of his Ivy League peers whose competition on the job market was having dinner with a friend of their mother's or father's and be hired on the spot, and call it equal opportunity. I've had white collar education yet due to poor background worked much more blue collar work to pay the bills, than I did white collar due to socioeconomic factors in the region I used to live.
With all due respect concerning your choice, she might be physically a good opponent, though believing in baseless conspiracy theories should still be a disqualifying event.
