    They are both uncharismatic leaders. Bernie is old. Ocasio-Cortez doesn’t understand economics

      You likely don’t know shit about economics. That’s why you still think it’s important to vaguely allude to economics as an important element to understand in politics when really it’s just a smoke screen used to tell people that policies that make their lives miserable are all very well and good actually. 🧐🎩

      Economic “experts” running policy on the basis of laughably bad classroom economic theory – save those from the behavioral economics realm that generate testable, falsifiable hypotheses – are a big reason why the middle class has gone down the tubes in this country for 50 years.

      To be fair, no body understands ‘economics’ and age has not stopped Putin, Xi, Trump or a whole list of evil people get and keep power so why say Bernie is too old?
