“As a younger member of Congress, the first vote I ever cast was for Barack Obama, who was called a socialist and all of this stuff. All of this rhetoric that we see today has been the political reality my entire life. And so I never felt a nostalgia for something that never existed in my lifetime,” she told me. “I feel like our politics has fundamentally changed — whether it’s for better or for worse is for people’s determination — but I was never under the illusion that we can bring Manchin along.”

But those days, she says, have been over for a long time. And the fact that Biden and others don’t realize it, she says, could spell disaster in the fall’s elections. With Biden’s low approval numbers and the historic tendency of the president’s party to lose, on average, 26 House seats in the midterms, the Democrats face an uphill battle to keep control of Congress — a situation that requires firing up the party’s progressive base, Ocasio-Cortez said.
“We need to acknowledge that this isn’t just about middle of the road, an increasingly narrow band of independent voters. This is really about the collapse of support among young people, among the Democratic base, who are feeling that they worked overtime to get this president elected and aren’t necessarily being seen,” she said.

They need to push harder to the Left. Much, much harder. It’s the only way to be sure.
If you have to work overtime to send in mail-in ballots you voted too often.
They lie about the amount of support they have. It’s why they always cheat. I’m so tired of these psychopaths being in power no matter who “wins”.
Joe Biden knows he has four years in office.
Now Democratic voters do too.
“We need to acknowledge that this isn’t just about middle of the road, an increasingly narrow band of independent voters.”
Maybe she’s not as stupid as she seems. Nah, she’s an idiot, but she got this part right.
They need to open the Covid/RE-Education/Wokeism camps now before its to late! The could do it in time for the election if they contract it out to the CCP
“Don’t buy a single vote more than necessary. I’ll be damned if I’m going to pay for a landslide.”

She’s right, but for the wrong reasons.
Yup. “Not one step back, Comrades!” Definitely need to be more radical.
Of course every single Democrat listens to and accepts the advice of A-O-C.
Yes - they've obviously had the correct approach, and just need to push harder!
It's time to double down on stupidprogressivism!!
Is there a snowball’s chance in Hell AOC will be defeated?
You f#$$'d up. You trusted us!"
“Biden just isn’t Marxist enough!”
She’s an idiot.
She is likely to be their nominee. I watched an interview with her yesterday where she has already changed her hair and makeup, and put on a pink dress with a slit down the side. She looked so damned good I turned down the sound and watched it.
We are a conquered nation, so if the bad guys want her, in she goes. Female version of the 1992 Bill Clinton effect.
I find her yummy
How can you stand looking at a commie whore?
I understand admiring a beautiful woman but not a commie.
