Democrats abstain from voting on their own “Green New Deal”

[wsws.org]

(Tuesday’s debacle revealed on a small scale the entire political function of Ocasio-Cortez. Instead of pressuring the Democrats to take a stand on the Green New Deal, she covered for their refusal to do so.)

Another bad note for AOC. If she thought getting them to vote present would seem to be any better than a no, it's because she thinks we're to ignorant or stupid to know.

Let me repeat this. Cortez worked under Ted Kennedy, another establishment politician. She knows DC well. She spent her entire time in collage preparing for politics in various ways. Her father was in politics. She has been well prepped for her placement into the democratic party. Not the new shinning freshman she is often labeled as. Watch her when she speaks. She has all the captivating motions down to a tee to pull in the viewers. A well trained Manchurian.
