Yes, and she is a serious opponent, at least in the sense that she is a threat not to be dismissed.. Dumb as a box of rocks, but as we all know, that doesn’t matter one whit. My broken record: She’s a sexy Latina with a passionate message of Victimhood And So Free Stuff. Unfortunately, that all sells, big time. Idiotic Youth, almost all Latinas, all democrats, and a good number of blacks (holding their noses) will vote for her. The media would promote her 24/7. It’d be enough to make her our next President.
I am loathe to admit but I agree. She may be a ditz but I have to admit her speaking engagements are improving. What that tells me is not that she’s getting smarter, necessarily, but that she’s getting propped up and assisted. Just like Biden. And that makes her extremely dangerous.
The only thing that made Obama slightly more dangerous is that he was not just evil, but also intelligent, and that makes him far more of a threat, even in the background. My gut has always been that Obama never fully gave up power. He’s been in the background working the entire time behind the scenes.
My evidence is the left willingly elected Joe Biden, who they knew was an empty vessel. My guess is they knew he was a puppet president, but they also know who is really in charge.
I say that to say this: An AOC presidency is Obama’s fourth term. How’s that for dangerous? It would be a disaster for America, and must never come to pass.
She may be a ditz but I have to admit her speaking engagements are improving.
The large crowds are at concerts.
Agreed. They lust for the destruction of America, and tap into discontent and envy to fund their efforts.
Obama is an evil, evil person. I was much more of a moderate the first time I heard him speak, and so was open to hearing him out. Holy Crap. I’ll never forget it, as my hair went up, and my skin crawled— at a very primal, visceral level, I went on High Alert. That had never happened before. AOC is hitting the same buttons, but because of her sex appeal, that Alert isn’t as strong; just more of a ‘Stay Away’ signal than the “This person would absolutely kill you for their own demonic gain in a heartbeat” message I clearly got with O. This is my concern.
Cortez gets note from Hillary
Don’t bother it doesn’t work
If polls are somewhat accurate, Schumer isn't laughing off a possible AOC run for the senate. I think she would have a much better chance in taking out Schumer, than doing a run for the presidency. If she runs for higher office and fails her political career is likely over. It will be interesting to see if the democrats want take out Schumer in favor of AOC
Well, I'm no Republican, just someone who was held hostage by the Republican wing of the uniparty for nearly fifty years, until Trump came along.
Nevertheless, you make some valid points.
In 2016, Elite Stream Media had no clue how to cover Trump or Sanders.
I will never forget in the Iowa caucuses, PMSNBC interviewed a voter live.
They asked this early fiftyish woman who she was voting for in the caucuses.
She said she wasn't voting as she couldn't attend the caucuses as she had to work which is basically an INDICTMENT of the process and CONFIRMED Trump's assessment that the nomination process was rigged.
They asked her who she would have voted for if she could have attended and she said Trump without hesitation.
As the interviewer was not getting the answers he wanted or expected, he asked her who was her second choice, and she Sanders.
We he threw it back to the studio, there was shocked silence.
They did not understand the anti-establishment position that this woman's truthful answers exposed.
As a rabid Trump supporter in 2016, I didn't really think Trump had much of a path.
But I did take note of Bernie beating crooked Hillary in Michigan.
I thought there was a chance a lot of those Bernie voters might go to Trump in the general.
Evidently enough did as Trump won Michigan which Trump clearly needed if he had a path to an electoral victory.
So the question populism v elitism that decided presidential elections in 2016 and 2024 (as 2020 there was coup) will likely determine the 2028 ballot.
So it will NOT be as much who the Democrats nominate but who the Republicans nominate.
The America First movement it a populist, nationalist, anti-war mongering, anti-nation building, anti-military adventuristic and most importantly anti-globalist movement.
In other words anti-uniparty which is a term I am using to replace your term of anti-establishment.
I am no fan of J D Vance because calling Trump a Nazi in private DISQUALIFIES him as someone I would want to lead the America First movement and as someone who is disposed to favor the uniparty swamp and not genuinely America First.
Personally, I think the AOC/Fetterman ticket is laughable because I don't think their position on Hamas and Israel could ever be credibly bridged.
But as Rush used to say no one can beat Trump, he can only beat himself.
Well that is no longer true, because Trump is no longer going to running to win or lose.
Which reframes the question, no Democrat can win the next election but if the Republican wing of the uniparty can beat itself if it nominates someone who cannot genuinely project what Trump has made the platform of the America First Movement.
Dog catcher maybe? POTUS NO!
I do think republicans need to acknowledge is that Obama..he’s a progressive, so was Hillary, so is AOC...
The Democrat Party has a problem. The last two major, major, election cycles they put forward not Democrats (really)...they put forward Progressives. Obama was a well articulated and fairly soft spoken community organizor...how long was he in the Senate before becoming President? Then we had Hillary run in 2016 and she loudly proclaimed her Progressive agenda, then we had the Biden dimlit bulb.
Next up could potentially be AOC, but there’s a pattern here and in all reality it isn’t Democrat. And with the Party still unable to regain their footing 6 months after Trump’s re-election...
Well, we are staring right down the barrel of another Progressive push. Frankly we need to find a way to pull the Democrat name off the Party. They are anything but Democrats. And as the old guards either lose or die in office...we will see Progressives take their places.
With that foresight in mind, we need to start acting fast.
