Congressperson says US president and Marco Rubio are tearing apart transatlantic alliance
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has accused Donald Trump of tearing apart the transatlantic alliance with Europe and of seeking to introduce an “age of authoritarianism”, as she condemned his administration’s foreign policy in front of its allies’ top policymakers at the Munich Security Conference.
Speaking at a panel on populism on Friday, Ocasio-Cortez outlined what she called an “alternative vision” for a leftwing US foreign policy, challenging the Trump administration’s shift to the right in front an audience of US allies who have grown increasingly wary of the US’s increasingly nationalist – and militaristic – global posture.
In her remarks, Ocasio-Cortez said Trump and Marco Rubio, the secretary of state, were “looking to withdraw the United States from the entire world so that we can turn into an age of authoritarianism”, as they sought to “carve out a world where Donald Trump can command the western hemisphere and Latin America as his personal sandbox, where Putin can saber rattle around Europe and try to bully our own allies there”.
We just elected our firstwoman as governor in VA and she won by a larger margin than any other Democrat since the 70s
Sick of the whining that America won’t elect a woman when Clinton won the popular vote and Kamala replaced a guy with a 37% approval rating, yet ran on his platform anyway… and that was in the middle of massive inflation. Your sample size is 2.
Clinton would’ve been president if it weren’t for that dumbass James Comey
Ah yes, the CIA Democrat that had no primary opponent.
It’s actually more than 2 on a historical scale. I’m not saying a woman cannot or should not be president, I’m saying that the odds aren’t in favor.
If you needed a lawyer for some reason, would you refuse to hire a woman because you thought your jury might have misogynists on it?
Apples and oranges.
