Been saying that since she won election. Do not underestimate her given the built in advantages she has, and the prevailing gullibility of the public.

Yes. Don’t be put off by the frequently stupid things she says. That’s just the woke upbringing and education she received. They don’t sound stupid to millennials and a lot of z’ers.
She is VERY politically savvy. She has made no fatal mistakes despite her youth and the media glare (and yes, I know it’s hard for lefties to make fatal political mistakes—eg her tax the rich $5,000 dress at a billionaire gala was barely a ripple. A conservative with comparable hypocrisy would be answering questions about it for years).
And, she has great instincts for social media. Anyone who underestimates her should ask why a wet behind the ears, hyper radical, congress critter from an utterly unrepresentative-of-America congressional district has become a major national figure in just a few years. The reason is she’s a great political athlete, notwithstanding her odious political commitment to socialism and tyranny.
QAfter seeing the stupidness shown in the NYC mayoral election, I can see the possibility of AOC actually making some headway. Don’t want to see it, but nevertheless I do.
