AOC viewed by New Yorkers more as a villain rather than hero

A new poll exploring the way New Yorkers view freshman congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), [aka Alexandria Obviously-Comatose] after she scared away Amazon from headquartering in Queens, NY, a move which would have offered about 25,000 new high-paying jobs, saw that about three times as many respondents viewed her as a villain as opposed to being a hero.

 The findings of the Siena College poll of New Yorkers taken between March 10-14 prompted Siena College pollster Steven Greenberg to say, “Only 12 percent call her hero, while 38 percent label her a villain.” Many call her a socialist schmuck-buckling economics cretin.

Additionally, Ocasio Cortez may be popular with New York Democrats, but by and large, the rest of the electorate in New York state can’t stomach her. The poll found that 31% of respondents overall had a favorable impression of Ocasio-Cortez; 44% viewed her unfavorably.

Greenberg noted:
Ocasio-Cortez, with a negative 31-44 percent favorability rating, is as well known to statewide voters after three months in office as Gillibrand is after ten years as senator. While Democrats view Ocasio-Cortez favorably, independents view her unfavorably more than two-to-one and Republicans view her unfavorably, 68-6 percent. She is viewed slightly favorably in New York City but strongly unfavorably upstate and in the downstate suburbs.
Among respondents, twice as many supported the deal Amazon was prepared to make, 61%-30%. Greenberg also said of the cancellation, “Even 56 percent of self-described liberals think it was bad for New York. While some may have celebrated Amazon’s announcement to pull the plug, the vast majority of New Yorkers of every stripe thought it was bad for the Empire State.”
“Amazon itself was seen as the biggest villain among Democrats, but Republicans and independents had Ocasio-Cortez as far and away the largest villain, followed by the local Queens activists,” the report added.

Making matters worse for AOC, The Daily Wire reported on Saturday, a new poll from left-leaning Gallup found her "unfavorable" rating skyrocketing; the poll, released on Friday, found that the increase in Ocasio-Cortez's "unfavorable" rating in recent months had more than doubled her increase in "favorable ratings."

"Half of U.S. adults were unfamiliar with or had no opinion of her in September after her seismic primary win over the summer, but that figure has shrunk to 29% today," Gallup reported. "But the increased visibility has not improved her overall standing with Americans."

After Amazon canceled the deal, Ocasio-Cortez offered her befuddled version of why killing the deal was a good idea, "If we were willing to give away $3 billion for this deal, we could invest those $3 billion in our district ourselves, if we wanted to. We could hire out more teachers. We can fix our subways. We can put a lot of people to work for that money, if we wanted to."

She didn't understand the deal but she pretended to know what she was complaining about. But she looks smart in those large frame eyeglasses until she opens her mouth to speak.

To know her is, well, to know her.
