Ocasio-Cortez and her magic trains

Side show? She’s the center attraction. The amount of time conservative media has been spending talking about her is far more than a side show. It’s not for nothing.

Fair enough. But she is not taken seriously by anybody in either party other than her freshman girlfriends. And maybe Bernie. We are not going socialist. A conservative court won’t allow it. She’s going to need to stop making goofy statements and actually do something. If she doesn’t her luster will soon fade. I think her little party will be over by spring after neither has happened. I could be wrong though. I haven’t been wrong yet in 2019. So I’m due. :smirk:

You don’t give that much attention to someone you don’t take seriously.

We’ll see. I’m still predicting by spring. Let’s say Mid June so. I guess we’ll have to wait and see.

I don’t know if you’re right or not but I do know that it’s totally irrelevant.

Yet another thread about Ms. Cortez. Lol!

I better be careful because some tight ass flagged my last post and got it deleted by the mods. There’s definitely a fixation.

You are correct! We love her. Hours of free entertainment. But alas, all good things must come to an end. As this will eventually.

She’s the Donald Trump of the left. All mouth and no self control.

Well except the fact that Donald Trump has been incredibly successful as President and in Real Estate. By nearly any measurement used.

You folks messed up bad. You said, well, here’s a politician who is literally the anti-Hillary in almost every way. Let’s make her famous!

Trains are a bad thing now?

She is the darling of the conservative media. Because of her entertainment value. When she stops being entertaining, her star will fade. Right now, we’re having a lot of fun with it.

No! I like trains. Especially magic trains. I’m going to Alaska this year. I hope that the magic trains are in place by then so that I can cash in my airline ticket for train ride.

You can take a train to Alaska right now, I would recomand it traveling though west coast is amazing experience.

most of the advances in train travel in the last few decades have been making them more energy efficient

I would love to do it. It looks stunning. But Yowza. Those babies are pricey. Taking a Cruise from Anchorage to Vancouver. I have never been to Alaska or the Canadian west coast. Looking forward to seeing both.

Yes train travel is very expensive when compared to air travel which is well it would never really work currently but a lot of countries (Canada, Europe, Asia) are looking at making it cheaper and bringing it back as a main source of travel.

but it won’t happen within the next 20-30 years.

Canada is hoping to expand small nuclear reactors across Canada to power local communities and train systems its one of the few ideas floating around how to revamp the Canadian energy sector.

Cool. As I said before. I am not at all opposed to alternative fuels. If this is the real deal. I am not opposed to a gradual .painless transition. Show me one of those cars at a reasonable price and maybe I’ll considerer one. As of now. The choice is not available.

California voted for high speed trains back in 08. What do they have to show for it? 3.5 billion dollars of federal money disappeared. And due to environmentalism, bureaucracy and mismanagement there is no sign of any train. Well done libs!
