Progressive Twitter users blasted "Squad" member Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., this week, after she endorsed President Joe Biden’s re-election bid.
Leftists on the platform accused the lawmaker of selling out her progressive and anti-war values with her decision to support the second presidential term of the Democratic Party leader who recently just approved of providing controversial cluster bombs for Ukraine’s war effort.
Critics accused the Congresswoman of "maliciously" selling out working class voters with the endorsement.
Ocasio-Cortez officially endorsed Biden during the Thursday episode of "Pod Save America."
When asked by the host if she would endorse Biden in a Democrat primary field consisting of the current president, author Marianne Williamson, and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., the lawmaker claimed she would.
"I believe, given that field, yes," she said. She added praise for the 80-year-old Biden’s presidential performance so far, saying, I think he’s done quite well, given the limitations that we have. I do think that there are ebbs and flows, as there are in any presidency."
"There are areas that I think were quite strong," she continued, noting "he came right out of the gate with the American Rescue Plan."
Ocasio-Cortez also cheered the "Inflation Reduction Act" Biden signed, claiming it was "a massive step in terms of our climate agenda." However, she did critique his leadership on immigration, adding, "But, you know, there are also areas that I think could have gone better. The president and I think the Democratic Party in general continues to struggle with immigration."
Far-left Twitter users ripped the endorsement shortly after it was shared online.

Could be braking news. 81 million ballots - down the drain.
Oh my, bet Orville Redenbacher is somewhere watching and a touch jealous, lol.
My cup of schadenfreude runneth over!
Cornel West should be on any progressives short list. Biden is an establishment democrat and a crime family boss.
West is a hardcore marxist and human brillo pad. That is why he’s a college professor. Mr. Clean he ain’t.
Look up his red record at www.keywiki.org and www.DiscoverTheNetworks.org. or .com
In DC, there are still people who wanted Bernie Sanders, but he’s not running. Outside DC, there are third party types who don’t like Joe. AOC doesn’t have anything to fear. She’s just a little too early to endorse Biden.
JMO, YMMV
“Cornel West told President Biden to “get off the crack pipe.”
He’s a commie for sure but considering the above comment, he’s not all bad. Should pull some progressive democrat votes. If they do something to Trump and CWII hasn’t cancelled the 2024 election, I’d vote for him before any rino.
Progressive Twitter users want Putin to run?
... Oh, metaphorically. I got excited for a moment there.
Leaving aside the systematic and systemic ballot fraud by the DNC and various other NGOs, the Demagogic Party voter is a stooge who will vote for the DNC's handpicked candidate, whether nominated for POTUS, or candidate for Senate, House, governor, or state houses.
I bet you can still sell Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez a ticket for the Titanic.
This doesn’t surprise me. Both AOC and Biden have been considered stupid for a long time.
