MAGAt told this tweeter that Ocasio Cortez's dancing was inappropriate- how she responded

Just got messaged by a MAGAT that the video of Alexandria Ocasio Cortez dancing is inappropiate for a young lady, especially one in office. I responded by sending her the pic of the 1st Lady nude with another woman. I was quickly blocked!!! LOL

And it’s a throwback/tribute to The Breakfast Club, a movie that spoke to me and to an entire generation.


What did the GOP give us?

Donald Trump
Roy Moore
Joe Arpaio

Since I’m getting sick typing their names, I’ll just stop here.

changes how some people see things. Republican propaganda, which they are very good at doing, puts a whole new spin on things and some people fall for it hook, line, and sinker.

And that MAGAT better clutch those pearls tighter, because she had 14 accomplices being equally inappropriate. Here's the full video the OP clip was edited from:



Somebody's already repurposed it as a campaign video:

I took that video of AOC dancing and turned it into an ad for Medicare For All with a catchy theme song.

Both the original full length video and the edited one for "medicare for all"...

The idea that anyone on the right is clutching their pearls over this is ridiculous and especially when we think of the right turning a blind eye to their Porn Star fucking Traitor in Chief whose own wife has posed nude and in sex scenes with other women....

The false piety and outrage is getting old....

There was a montage in the movie when the kids were dancing. Except for the first part, the dances were from that montage.

Someone posted a youtube mashup back then, and people started copying it. The original Boston University video had more people and the music, which that crazy QAnon person removed before posting the video.

A friend of Ally Sheedy's tagged her, since it was her moves that AOC was doing, and she wrote back! https://twitter.com/allysheedy1

Who supports a president who sleeps with porn stars, has mob ties, makes fun of people who aren’t white, is a pussy grabber, thinks dancing is too risqué. The hypocrisy is getting to level stupid.
