Fox News Frets Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Could Enter 2020 Race

No one seemed to realize that the freshman Democrat is too young to run.

During a snark-filled segment about the 2020 Democratic presidential primary on Friday’s Outnumbered, Fox News host Harris Faulkner had a question for her fellow panelists: “What are y’all going to do if Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez jumps in?”

Not one person seated around the couch corrected her on one important fact: At 29 years old, the freshman Democrat from New York will not be old enough in 2020 to run for president. According to the Constitution, candidates must be 35 years old by Inauguration Day.

“She’s going to take all the water out of the pool,” Faulkner predicted.

From there, Juan Williams said the the right would be “delighted because she’s such a convenient foil” before shifting the conversation to Beto O’Rourke’s live-streamed dentist appointment.

Seriously. They are all fluff all the time. Rarely even a glimmer of "Doing the math" on any subject.

Clowns.
