Ocasio-Cortez stated that being “morally right” is probably better than being “factually right”


Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., spoke with Anderson Cooper on 60 Minutes on Sunday about her “fuzzy math” and criticism she’s received regarding her “radical agenda” and how it doesn’t matter to be “factually correct” as long as she’s “morally right.”
Ocasio-Cortez stated that being “morally right” is probably better than being “factually right” and if she makes a mistake, that it’s not exactly the same thing as President Donald Trump telling lies about illegal immigrants.
However, isn’t it possible that some people are both factually correct and morally right? Facts do matter, as does morals, but we cannot act like facts don’t matter.
Ocasio-Cortez receives fair criticism over her Democratic-socialist agenda and consistently making minor mistakes and slip-ups (not for dancing).
The interview with Anderson Cooper brought out some more interesting tidbits of information from the new Congresswoman from New York.
The video interview also discusses President Trump being labeled as a racist. Of course, that comes without evidence and the idea that Trump is a racist is a common weapon used by Democrats in arguments they found to be losing.
