A Clueless AOC Tells NPR Host GOP is to Blame for Mass Illegal Immigration Problem
In an absolutely clueless moment even for her, Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) recently told an NPR host that Republicans are to blame for the migrant crisis gripping the country.
The left-wing firebrand argued that if there is a problem with mass illegal immigration, the GOP are the ones to pin it on. As Democrats continue to reel from the November election loss to now-President Donald Trump, some have argued the party needs a fresh approach to the migrant crisis plaguing the southern border.
Others, like AOC, have urged citizens to find ways to resist the president and ICE agents’ efforts to deport illegal immigrants.
National Public Radio host Steve Inskeep spoke to the congresswoman, who won office initially during Trump’s first term, about where she and her party stand now.
“To what extent is immigration, as an issue, part of your problem with working-class voters?” he asked.
“I guess my question would be, what does the word ‘problem’ mean?” Ocasio-Cortez replied.
“People voting for the other side and not for you,” Inskeep clarified.
“I think that we have a problem on immigration because of the lack of progress that we’ve had on this issue, and as we know, Republicans weaponize that lack of progress,” AOC replied. She then referred to the purportedly bipartisan bill that Republicans have argued was “never designed to solve the problem.”
“It is a problem not just for Democrats; it’s a problem for the entire country that Republicans do not want to solve,” Ocasio-Cortez argued.
She appeared to echo the argument that one of the best ways to curb illegal immigration is to make more immigration legal, such as by granting citizenship to illegal immigrants, saying, “They are completely uninterested in addressing undocumented people, in addressing a path to citizenship.”
“Well they do want to address undocumented people by removing them, I mean that’s what the president is attempting now,” Inskeep interjected.
Ocasio-Cortez argued that Republican legislation such as the Laken Riley Act guts due process, and that Republicans lack the very infrastructure they need to effectively deport people.
“So they are actually creating-it’s not even about creating a deportation pipeline, they are creating a private prison camp pipeline, so they are still creating pipelines to just increase this problem here in the United States,” she said.
Well, the problem is really easy to solve.
Before deportation, masses of immigrants need to be moved into the neighbor hoods of
of politicians like AOC to be housed for few months.
We can then see what country her loyalty will stand for!
Passt: Darren, it’s NYS district 14. The latino immigrants are already there….
LOL. Idiocy in liberals is a renewable asset – AOC is a textbook case.
Only a conservative would view idiocy as an asset. They are indeed wealthier than Midas. Cornered the market do to speak. And their idiocy medium of exchange: $trump meme coin, coin of the felon king’s realm.
Dishonest politicians depend on low IQ, lazy, welfare-dependent constituents. They’re easily frightened by threats that conservatives will take away their freebees, and they’re not smart enough to recognize that they’re being tricked. Maxine Waters turned that approach into a career of theft. The late Sheila Jackson Lee did the same. The “squad” has practically turned it into a separate political party.
I’m so glad that it’s the “late” Shelia Jackson Lee. That’s a start.
