The Amazon HQ site wasn’t even in AOC’s district

That district has been redistricted several times. The HQ site was just about a mile below the border of her current district, meaning that most of the workers would be from her district (the others having to cross a bridge to get there. Also, it was in the district that was prior to 2012 redistricting.

The deal was doomed early on as soon as several members of the city council and state legislature who represented that part of NYC — and had previously agreed to the deal — turned around and opposed it.

She was one of the first to publicly speak out against it.

And their opposition surfaced even before AOC figured out how to spell “HQ.”

The Business Insider timeline suggests otherwise. Can you show me proof that several members of the city council and state legislature who represented that part of NYC spoke out before AOC did? As far as I can tell, they all spoke out at essentially the same time, in mid November 2018.

I think you are being a little "loose" with your timeline.
