As Twitchy told you, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez argued for longer paid family leave by comparing people to puppies.
This makes that argument look sane by comparison:
.@AOC: I’m tired of this idea that #MedicareForAll and tuition free public colleges are some hand out from somebody else. Nobody else is giving us a damn thing. We build this on our own. pic.twitter.com/k8IL6Gfq8I

That sounds sorta familiar … where have we heard it before?
The arrogance of this is amazing. Doubles down on Obama's "you didn't build this." https://t.co/7GM8b8ltkW

If you thought it was bad when Obama insulted entrepreneurs by saying “You didn’t build that,” well … here’s something worse. https://t.co/Qtro0rvNjJ

Congratulations, AOC. You have indeed managed to out-awful Barack Obama’s awful “You didn’t build that” BS.
But aside from that, who on earth does she think she’s fooling? Besides her army of clapping seals, of course. Her critics have rightly pointed out that her preferred policies rely on fleecing taxpayers, and here she is asserting that she and her minions are going to build this on their own.
Show your work, AOC

Ummmm wut?
THAT'S NOT HOW IT WORKS

This literally makes no sense. Which, we know, is par for the course with AOC. But still. Dear Lord. How this woman even manages to get herself dressed in the morning, we’ll never know.
I wonder where @AOC thinks the government gets their money to pay for all of this stuff. The funding fairy? Or is it the Greenbacks Genie?

No, you built this on taxpayer dollars stolen from hardworking Americans who chose not to spend $150k on a a degree in queer feminist literature at Brown. https://t.co/SlqTedOJQD

It is a hand out by putting your hand in my pocket
