Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez reminds me of the annual safety videos you’re required to watch and get quizzed on at work.

In other words, if there’s a fire in the building, you’re not going to whip out the policy and read up on what you should do about it – you just get the hell out.

CNN correspondent Abby Phillip halts AOC every time she attempts to dodge providing direct answers with a bunch of fluff, and it’s a beautiful moment.

[I saw this yesterday but never got a chance to write about it. In the end, we had more important topics than AOC’s status as an intellectual dilettante using language that means nothing while considering herself Very Profound and Much Smart for doing so. Abby Phillip tried very hard not to condescend to AOC, but it’s clear that the CNN anchor is every bit as bemused by her argument as we were. — Ed]
