The Results Are In, Here's What America Thinks Of Ocasio-Cortez

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has gained widespread popularity in the mainstream media.

You practically can't go one single day without hearing her name mentioned in the news. She's even earned the title of the "Democratic Darling", but is she?

That's not what most Americans seem to think. In fact, the amount of people who consider Ocasio-Cortez in a negative light has drastically gone up.

According to Fox News,

A Gallup poll released Friday shows that Ocasio-Cortez's unfavorable rating has risen by 15 points since last September, when she had yet to win the general election, increasing from 26 percent to 41 percent of the American adults polled.

She has also managed to increase her favorability rating, but only by 7 points. About 31 percent of surveyed people view her favorably, compared to 24 percent in September.

Since September, Ocasio-Cortez became more widely recognized across the country, with half of the respondents saying they have never heard of her before. Now only a fifth of surveyed people says they aren’t familiar with the self-described Democratic socialist.

The poll notes that Ocasio-Cortez’s name recognition is growing compared to that of other politicians at the same point in their careers in Congress. More surveyed people know the New York Democrat than they knew Sens. Elizabeth Warren, Marco Rubio or Ted Cruz as freshmen.

But is it really that surprising? She just ran Amazon out of New York City costing them 25,000 jobs and tens of Billions of dollars in tax revenue. She's proposed the dumbest proposal ever known as the Green New Deal which pays people who aren't willing to work, then denies it.

One Twitter user got it spot on when he said, ". UNfavorable rating going UP! Green New Deal Costs $132TRILLION, Blames LENDERS For Borrowers Crimes, Blames Cows For Fake Global Warming, Mocks all of our thoughts & prayers for victims in NZ & VOICE Of "

Ocasio-Cortez responded to the news by saying, "If you want to know what subconscious bias looks like, it’s a headline saying “AOC is underwater with every group EXCEPT women, nonwhites, and 18-34 year olds.” So older, conservative white men are considered “everyone” and everyone else is discounted as an exception."

So, she's proud of a having an extreme minority basically, non-white women who lack enough life experience to know that socialism sucks because their liberal college professors push it down their throats. She'll get nowhere with that kind of support.
