Outgoing Claire McCaskill takes shots at Alexandria Ocasio Cortez. |
Soon to be former Missouri U.S. senator Claire McCaskill is looking forward to being an agitator on cable news. The outgoing senator was defeated in the 2018 Midterms.
McCaskill, a Democrat has been one of the many moderates who complained about how Congress is so dysfunctional. McCaskill often would try to meet in the middle with Republicans on many key issues.
It didn't help her.
Especially given that Missouri Republicans were plagued with scandal with their former governor, a state lawmaker and their handling of spending in the state.
Donald J. Trump embraced of her opponent Josh Hawley, the former Missouri Attorney General who is wrapped in scandal as well.
The 38 year old Republican will be the youngest member to join the Senate. His defeat of McCaskill showed that Republicans are determined to influence young and bright individuals into conservative racists.
McCaskill is working the TV circuits. She had made remarks about incoming lawmaker Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the New York Democrat who embraces economic socialism.
"I don't know her. I'm a little confused why she's the thing. But it's a good example of what I'm talking about, a bright shiny new object, came out of nowhere and surprised people when she beat a very experienced congressman."
She added, "And so she's now talked about a lot. I'm not sure what she's done yet to generate that kind of enthusiasm, but I wish her well. I hope she hangs the moon."
"But I hope she also realizes that the parts of the country that are rejecting the Democratic Party, like a whole lot of white working class voters, need to hear about how their work is going to be respected, and the dignity of their jobs, and how we can really stick to issue that we can actually accomplish something on."
In closing she said that Ocasio-Cortez's rhetoric is "cheap." She said that getting results is a lot harder.
Claire, you done fucked up, sister.
Democrats are more inclusive. They elected a woman of color who rocked the nation. |
You, Joe Donnelly, Joe Manchin, Heidi Heitkamp and other conservative Democrats were destroying the party.
With the exception of Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV), the party suffered four losses. Bill Nelson, a moderate himself didn't go the way of his fellow Democrats. He supported the party. Nelson just had a crooked governor named Rick Scott rigged the system to favor his bid to oust him from the senate.
Ocasio-Cortez is a woman of color. She represents a congressional district in New York City. She beat Joe Crawley, a Democrat who didn't change the narrative of his district. She is the youngest member of Congress and became a firebrand for conservative outrage. When she beaten a well-established Democrat, many in the junk food media were pointing to her endorsement of economic socialism.
Since her rise, the right wing agitators have undermined her at every step.
Ocasio-Cortez hits back. She has often responded to critics in her "Trump-ish" fashion by trolling the fuck out of her critics. She hit back at the sexism, racism, and slander.
It's noted that McCaskill said that GOP Senators believe Trump is nuts.
Well they support him. They don't give two fucks about his mental fitness. As long as their agenda (no matter how stupid) is done, they're behind him 100%.
Remember Brett Kavanaugh was one pure example. Even with sexual allegations thrown at Kavanaugh, Jeff Flake, Bob Corker and Susan Collins voted for Kavanaugh.
So don't give me that bullshit.
McCaskill wants to protect white male privilege. That's why her ass was defeated.
