I live in NY so I get a lot of the AOC coverage and just find her an intellectual lightweight who isn't nearly as clever or engaged as she seems to think about herself. I also find her to be thin skinned.

My opinion of Trump is that he has some of the same flaws as her. However, he tends to govern as a conservative. So, while I don't like his character one whit at least I can agree with a lot (but not all) of his policies.

Beyond that, yeah, I agree with you on the personal attacks. It's one thing to joke about a politician, be it AOC or DJT, but it's another to call her the c-word or him a POS.
