Every time I see these kinds of things I'm reminded of the right attacking AOC for being "just a bartender" and even if that were true. She never says anything half as stupid as this shit

AOC is college educated, too. Didn’t Boebert finally get her GED after she ran for office?

AFTER she failed it on three previous attempts. She didn't actually "Pass" until after it was confirmed she won her election. And the Colorado GED test isn't really that hard. Honestly most people in the state could pass it after 9th grade.

Correction, she won her primary, not her general election. Really though that part of Colorado has always been painfully red and in the past decade it's rot has been spreading east.

Sounds like they let her put her name on an already filled out Scantron that had the right answers.
