Do Republicans have a shot at picking up this seat?

Not a chance in hell.

This is classic.

She proclaims she is a Democratic Socialist, yet can’t explain what a Democratic Socialist is, what the ideology is.

Yet, as the Democrat nominee in a safe Democrat district, she will be a member of Congress, helping shape laws that affect us all.

It might be possible. If they’re offering someone who’s not playing with a full deck (which defines all socialists), I think the Repub has a shot.

Socialism - The government loots your stuff and redistributes it to others.

Democratic Socialism - Everybody gets together and votes that the government should loot your stuff and redistribute it to others.

"First of all, there's a huge difference between socialism and Democratic socialism," Ocasio-Cortez said.

Balderdash.

That, as they say, is "a distinction without a difference"...

Let's put it this way--you have a better chance of buying the winning Powerball ticket next week. ;-)

Almost forgot to say--Good Luck!

Sure there is a difference—under non-Democratic socialism the dictator takes your stuff and kills you and your family.

Under Democratic Socialism illegal aliens get to decide your fate. :-(

>>>>>I don’t think people wake up in the morning and say, ‘I’m a capitalist!’” she added.<<<<<

You need to widen your circle, ma’am. This reminiscent of the woman in San Francisco in 1968 wondering how Nixon got elected because “I don’t know anybody that voted for him!”
