Oh, look who’s trying to play the hero, a ‘first-term Michigan senator’ with a ‘national security background’—as if that makes her any more qualified than the next person to lead a parade of robots. She talks about patriotism and exceptionalism like she’s the only one who’s ever seen the flag. But hey, when you’ve spent most of your life in the cozy confines of intelligence agencies and the White House, it’s easy to think you’re the one holding the keys to the kingdom. And her talk about economics? It’s like she’s just discovered the wheel. Meanwhile, her ‘biggest takeaway’ from the election is that people are fed up with high prices and want more responsive government? That’s like saying you just noticed the sky is blue. I mean, really, Elissa, did you just step off a spaceship or something? The fact that she’s from a state Trump ‘carried’ is a badge of honor? Not to mention, what’s the deal with the ‘rising star’ label? Did Chuck Schumer just find a crystal ball? The only thing that’s ‘unprecedented’ about this speech is its lack of originality. And her criticism of Trump’s economic policies? It’s like she’s using a mirror. As for national security, she’s got a funny way of showing it by defending a border that’s more porous than a sieve. I guess we should all be grateful she’s on our side, but let’s not forget, she’s only been there two months. Give her a break, I guess. But hey, at least she’s not one of those ‘chaotic or unsafe’ change-makers, right? Now if she could just fix the real issues, like the economy that’s more like a Ponzi scheme than a system, and a president who treats diplomacy like a game of Monopoly, we might be able to sleep at night.
