Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) turned down repeated requests from Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign to appear at events promoting the Vermont senator’s candidacy in recent weeks, according to three people familiar with the discussions.
After the Iowa caucuses, Sanders campaign manager Faiz Shakir asked Ocasio-Cortez to stump for Sanders in New Hampshire, according to the sources. The campaign prepared a model schedule to highlight the kind of popular support she would expect if she attended, one of the people familiar with the talks said.
Ocasio-Cortez resisted the entreaties until a few days before the primary on Feb. 12. She ultimately spoke the day before the election at a Sanders rally in Durham, New Hampshire, where the rock band The Strokes performed.
“It was like pulling teeth to get her to New Hampshire,” said a second person who knew about the discussions.
But the first source said a disagreement over Ocasio-Cortez’s remarks in Iowa seemed to cool her on helping with the campaign.
At a rally in Ames on Jan. 25, Ocasio-Cortez delivered a speech in which she failed to mention Sanders’ name ― an omission that Fox News noticed and highlighted. She also encouraged those in attendance to tip off people about the presence of immigration enforcement authorities in their communities to help undocumented immigrants evade detention.

She’s going to have a 2022 redistricting gerrymander problem.
You owe me a pint of beer! It’s all over my desk! Holy s—t that’s funny.
Poor Bernie! Not even one term and she’s ditched the DNC diva persona for the high-priced harlot holding out for more greenbacks.
She really is an idiot. If she helped him, it would help her too. Complete arrogant idiot. He is a (leftist) superstar.
Has she paid her DNC dues yet? There is no stupid like #AOCstupid.
Damn...shouldn’t that mouth have some kind of safety guard?
In what language was she read the riot act?
Ha. I’ll gladly pay up. Next time you’re in Vegas, let me know. We can meet up.
It’s funny, she’s just one vote out of 435 and makes the Dems look like idiots, so Republicans want to keep her in the House a lot more than Democrats do.
The Strokes performed? Oh what we can do with that fact.
* Carlos Danger (aka Anthony Weiner)
* Monica and Bill
* Different strokes for different folks (Bathhouse Barry; ex-Mayor Gillum - Tallahasse, Fla; Lisa Page and Strzok; Rep. Katie Hill; Little Debbie Wasserman Schulz and the Awan brothers
* Corey Booker and Rosario Dawson
* Kamala Harris and Little Willie Brown
* Hillary and her IPhone, Computer, Ipad, and any of her staff (unintentional use of that word) that pissed her off
* Strokes - what I wish for Sanders, Biden, Hillary, Pelosi, Schumer, Durbin, Waters and most Democrat national politicians. Since most of them are braindead already, I want to finish them off before November.
...a Sanders rally in Durham, New Hampshire, where the rock band The Strokes performed...
Sanders isn’t radical enough for her. Heck, last year’s version of herself isn’t radical enough for her.
This sure sounds a lot like girl drama.
I was raised with 3 sisters and I can smell it a mile away.
All Democrats are girls.
Re your “Hell just this one phrase is rich with potential”: “..a Sanders rally in Durham, New Hampshire, where the rock band The Strokes performed..”
Adding more to it:
* “Who you spent a “Weekend at Bernie’s” with”
* “US Special Counsel Durham attended Bernie’s rally?”
* “The Strokes” - a foreboding of what is going to happen to Bernie and Biden in the near future?
* “Did The Strokes sing “Stroking’” as done by Clarence Carter (aka “Trucking” by Eddie Kendricks)?
* “As Rep. Adam Schiff said to his buddy Swallowswell, “The Strokes” is my favorite band, hint, hint. To which Eric replied, “Different Strokes for different folks, Adam”.
It’s pretty obvious that Ocrazio-Cortez hates old white Jewish guys.

So..... Just how much dinero (money) is Occasional Cortex amassing (hidden and public). Has she started her ‘foundation’ yet? The Bill and Billary Foundation is used by the Clinton’s with, as always, other people’s money, to live an extravagant lifestyle. Occasional has, no doubt, already begun squirreling away all kinds of funds. Some of her handlers, managers, staffers, and puppet masters have already been found using the system to enhance their own wallets. DemocRATS and progressives believes everyone cheats and are as lazy as they are. Hard work, saving money are for fools.
During the 2016 election, Bernie’s wife and friends funneled 80-plus million dollars through ‘election’ entities to fatten their nests. If you are looking for the reason Bernie will not withdraw yet, there is way too much money left to steal. The way things are going, he could run for President as a third-party independent, and end up with 3 or 4 MORE lake houses.
