She was showing the world just how much of an intellectual heavyweight she is.   

What the hell was AOC doing in Munich anyway? I mean besides destroying her presidential ambitions.

Eyewitnesses describe the scene as "like sending a barista to negotiate the Treaty of Versailles, but with more hesitation and fewer treaties." During a high-stakes town hall on Taiwan's defense, AOC reportedly froze like a deer in headlights (or a millennial facing a gluten-free menu), stammering, "Um, you know, like, Taiwan? That's the island with the really good boba tea, right? We should totally ally with them... or something. Pass the de-escalation shots!"
The cringe-fest escalated when she was quizzed on U.S. sanctions against Venezuela's Maduro regime. In a geography flex that left cartographers weeping, AOC confidently declared, "Venezuela's crisis is exacerbated by its position below the equator—where the, like, magnetic fields mess with democracy or whatever." (Quick fact-check: Venezuela sits squarely above the equator, nestled in northern South America like a poorly placed piñata.) Panelists exchanged glances that could curdle sauerkraut, with one German diplomat later muttering, "Is she confusing Caracas with the Arctic Circle? Or just her talking points with a cocktail napkin doodle?"

Even democRATs think their party is too extreme.
