AOC defines threats to Democratic re-election

An opinionated person has more opinions.

STOP THE FUCKING PRESS

Yikes.

She needs to stop white anting her own party.

White anting?

R4 My bad. Didn't realise it was only an Australian term.

New to me, but good, r3! Thanks for introducing me to something new.

She can pretend it’s about student loans, but it’s not.

I think she's sincere in her policies. I think she also knows better than to feed to feed the drama of squabbling, disarrayed Democrats and she knowingly chooses to do it. Perhaps she thinks she needs to burn the house down to reach nirvana. But in feeding the narrative it isn't helpful, it isn't going to happen on terms that will satisfy her, and she joins the ranks of stunt politicians like Gym Jordan - more noise than accomplishment. These things are usually done behind closed doors but Dems are always doing it in public and her approach is one of the reasons why. She's not helping.

She's wrong on strategy, issues, and career. Now go and make me a Long Island. That's what you're good at, I think...and stealing tips from your co-workers.

She's an idiot and everything that is wrong with just about everything. Can you New Yorkers gerrymander her out of her district or something?

First I head this. Link?

R10

A thief doesn't have to steal from everyone, so no yapping about it was just one co-worker. She only has to do it once.

Pretty hilarious for her to bitch about Biden not doing anything while she hasn't really done shit... other than bitch... either. She's part of the Dem problem.

She seems to exist to make democrats look bad. Like a poisoned pill.

Can someone help me thing of a more apt metaphor?

Oh, dear, but I agree 100%

She's a Puerto Rican Tracy Flick. Little Miss Hall Monitor. She didn't mention the alternative(s): vote Republican (and get nothing ever)... or don't vote at all.

And there goes my coffee through my nose. Perfect description.

Having been instrumental in turning undecideds off to the Democratic Party, AOC now positions herself as Cassandra.

Why doesn’t she go after republicans? Too much work? She seems extremely lazy and entitled to me. How does she get any work done with all that tweeting at Nancy?

English is your friend, OP. Apparently not a close one.

she's getting to the point where she yaps so much a lot of people are no longer paying attention to her.

She is right of corse. Dems will not win by inspiring helplessness. As she says, they need to use the tools at their disposal. Good for her.

1/6 was most decidedly NOT about "convos abt race+culture." This muppet will not be satisfied until she's destroyed any chance of an election-winning Dem coalition and handed the country over to the far right.

2022 is shaping up to be 2010 all over again and look where that got us. Democrats never learn. Don't vote. Stay at home. Let republicans win. See how much you'll get from them.

You know, you try to be a good person and care about your fellow citizens, but I'm just tired. You don't want a vaccine, don't get a vaccine. Die. I don't care. You don't like Joe Biden, so you're gonna stay at home to send a message. But who are you really hurting? Not Joe Biden. Joe's gonna be just fine. Democrats... carry on with your nonsense. Just hand it all over to them.

My main concern is Trump never gets near the White House ever again.

The Democrats need to learn how to use fear and hate to win over these backwater clowns in the south/Midwest. Their limited animal minds can’t handle progressive thought.

R24, I'm with you here, but with some nuance. There is a real danger that republicans regain the WH in 24. With that they'll shift the supreme court too far right even more. And I hate that Republicans are anti science (see antivax), do I don't want them anywhere closer to a position of power.

But I'm hating the woke culture that Dems are encouraging and amplifying. Making white people the source of all evil is a narrative that's both a lie and something I will not support. The left had lost touched with reality too.

So yeah, we have a problem. I don't want the republicans, but I'm not into democrats either. I likely won't vote.

Her posting was so intellectual and confusing that I didn't understand most of it. She ain't helping the Team out much with this one!

[quote] There is a real danger that republicans regain the WH in 24.

Oh, it's an absolute certainty at the moment, R26. If we (Dems) keep up this (inauthentic and completely cringeworthy) woke bullshit, Trump will win. There is no question.

But it's a cop out to not vote, frankly, even defensively. I've held my nose and voted for the lesser of two shitheads before, and I'll likely have to do it again.

Kamala isn't exactly helping the Democratic cause this morning:

Kamala Harris, the US vice-president, has conceded that the Biden administration was blind to the emergence of the Delta and Omicron variants of Covid-19, and said she fears “misinformation” over vaccines will prolong the pandemic well into a third year. The vice-president’s candid admission came in a wide-ranging interview with the Los Angeles Times

Just saw that, R29. Holy hell was that bad.

I love Kamala, but I don't know if she has the right stuff for the big chair.

R19, could you flesh that out for me? Everything in the OP is the writing of AOC, not me. But, please, explain where my English fell down in your view.

Kamala must have been high or something in that interview. She also said the administration never saw Delta or Omicrom coming. What she presumably meant was on the scale, but WTF?

Say what you will she is total shit at media relations and like it or not that is a big part of the job. Put her safely on the Court but get her out of the way.

Damn, the GOP is going to hammer that relentlessly the next two years.

If you don't want Republicans to gain power, then get on the democrats back to make them do stuff for the American people. Pass some substantial bills that will improve their situations.

If they don't want to do school loan debt, then fight to increase the minimum wage.

You can't just not do anything substantial and then expect people to vote for you.

Yes, Biden improved out situation with COVID (although that seems to be going back to a mess again) and got us out of Afghanistan. But there needs to be more.

It's not rocket science.

And I hope you're incredibly thankful R24 if that's really your main concern right now. Because most people aren't so fortunate. Most people are fighting to keep a roof over their heads and keep food on the table. And yes, they voted democrat. And they need help.

They're not even remotely thinking about Dump right now.

If people are struggling, why are there so many companies begging for workers right now?

Kamala should have said "Omicron proves people need to get vaccination, including the booster."

She is soooo bad at her job. And Biden picked her.
