AOC's Border Defense Leaves Ben Shapiro Puzzled
I do not think AOC is as vacant-headed as she sometimes appears to be. I see her as an intelligent, badly educated person with immense charisma in a millennial sort of way. She made headlines last year when she visited the border and railed against the inhumanity of what she believed were Trump’s policies there. (They were largely the same policies that existed during the Obama administration.) She has not been down there since the surge began, but she did defend that decision in a blog she posted last week.
In the video below, Ben Shapiro, who IMHO is the brightest political podcaster on the internet, is trying to figure out what, exactly, she is saying. It’s a good bit of fun. See what you think.
