Two fundamental problems with AOC
1. girl
2. shrill voice

I can tell that she's just exerting herself to stand up to the intensity of the circumstances. I've seen this a lot with competitive debaters as well. I think she's just getting adjusted to political agon, but is just another uncertain human being underneath it. The effect of trying to sound more confident than you are is offputting in effect, however, and the combined effect of that and her being a young woman sends a lot of people's minds racing to narrate their distaste as having a logical basis.
I don't pay a whole lot of attention to politics, because I don't really care, but the response to her is interesting. I'm confident that it would be a similar response regardless of what her merits were. I don't think a Trump-supporting conservative is even capable of admitting any merits of a progressive liberal. There are other conservatives that have mellower opinions on her.

To a lot of (less well-educated) Americans, "intelligence" just means acting confident and blustery. Showing any kind of intellectual modesty in the face of uncertainty reads to them as stupidity. Hence Trump's love for those he calls "the poorly educated" (i.e. his base).

Support system, connections, money, embodying the right demographic, being there at the right time, being against the right opponent, thick skin, unscrupulousness, lack of self-awareness...

Most of the above can be gained through intelligence, but all of it can also be obtained without. Every election is a complex story with plenty of parameters, and with hundreds of election every few years in the US it's no surprise than quite a few succeed without much brain of their own (not to say their staff can afford to be entirely made up of morons).

That's even more believable if you take into account a strong streak of anti-intellectualism in some parts of the US.

In a failing democratic state, people flock to a strong willed character - little else matters other than that they're strong willed, and seem powerful.

Women have a childlike, prerational assumption that they are special pretty princesses who should be worshipped and doted upon at all times. Normally this manifests only personal life, but now that they are in the public eye more, it is sublimating into behaviors like this.

As a man you aren't capable of truly understanding what a woman feels when she unironically demands the right to jail a man who made her feel bad on the internet. You think she is the victim of some ideology. But that is a perfectly normal thing to do, if you're a woman. It's how they perceive the world. Imagine being drunk all day every day, that's what a woman experiences except she's drunk on her emotions.

That said, that picture is fake and posted by a deranged footfag.

Does Trump possess the raw brain power to become a great mathematician or composer? No, of course not. Has he learned that with his money, fame, and status he can manipulate people to achieve certain ends? Yes. Does that make him smart? More likely it means he's not very conscientious and doesn't experience the moral dilemmas that would hold others back. Of course he's not the idiot some people make him out to be, but he's nowhere near the top ten.

There are certain kinds of people who are actually better because of their lack of understanding. “It's only because of their stupidity that they're able to be so sure of themselves”. These people are the loudest and are able to steer situation better towards their advantage.
