According to polls, next on the list of Democrat presidential contenders after failed joke of a candidate Kamala Harris and failed joke of a governor Gavin Newsom is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. She demonstrated the level of competence and patriotism her presidency would entail on the world stage at the Munich Security Conference that wrapped up over the weekend.
Marco Rubio had made a truly excellent speech stressing that Europe and the USA must stand together in defense of Western Civilization. It is well worth watching:
National Review reports on AOC’s response:
Ocasio-Cortez critiqued Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s remarkable speech at the conference for being “a pure appeal to ‘Western culture,’” which she rendered with air quotes as though its existence is somehow in doubt. …
AOC seemed to consider it a provocation that Rubio had talked about Western culture when discussing a Western alliance, NATO, founded to defend Western countries from a totalitarian menace emanating from a Eurasian behemoth.
A geography lesson from diversity incarnate:
She objected to our operation to grab Nicolás Maduro of Venezuela. According to AOC, we undertook it “just because the nation is below the equator,” when Venezuela is north of the equator.
In the realm of leftist Democrats, the struggle is not between West and East but rather North and South. The paradigm consists of civilized northern countries they want to demographically eradicate and the backward southern countries meant to displace them. Venezuela is a dysfunctional Third World hellhole run into the ground by AOC’s fellow communists; therefore, it is a good country and must be south of the equator.
Whether you call it the West or the North, leftists hate it. So it should come as no surprise that AOC would prove worse than useless if our primary adversary follows through on an invasion of our ally Taiwan. Here she explains what she would do:
That is, she has no idea what she would do, not having thought about it.
We learned moonbat geography; now let’s have a history lesson. Daily Wire quotes the moonbat:
“Rubio’s speech was a pure appeal to Western culture. My favorite part was when he said that American cowboys came from Spain. I believe the Mexicans and descendants of African slave peoples would like to have a word on that.”
African slave peoples? Meanwhile, back in reality:
The word “cowboy” itself is a direct translation of the Spanish word vaquero (from vaca, meaning cow). The tradition began in the medieval hacienda system of Spain and was brought to the Americas by conquistadors like Hernán Cortés and Gregorio de Villalobos in the early 1500s. These Spaniards introduced the first horses and cattle to the Western Hemisphere.
“Lariat” comes from “la reata.” “Chaps” comes from “chaparreras.” Stetsons and western saddles also have Spanish origins.
The rodeo dates back to the 17th and 18th centuries, when Spanish hacendados held annual rodeos to gather, count, and brand cattle. Spain introduced the ranching association and the system of branding cattle for ownership.
But Spain is of the pale-skinned North, so its cultural contributions are to be erased.
If it is up to Democrats, this malevolent cretin could be our next president:
