When we get the real-life political equivalent of Stone Cold... Ironically the most popular wrestler per event in history who's whole gimmick was fighting the authority of the wrestling promoter who didn't believe he was an acceptable face of the company and constantly wanted to push their own handpicked corporate champions. It's actually a lot more spot on than I meant it to be...
I don't think that's true tbh. The Dems have never managed to nominate a popular woman as their presidential candidate before. Clinton was almost universally disliked by the public (for lots of good reasons other than her gender), and ex-prosecutor Harris's campaign was hamstrung by Biden, as well as being seen as an other pro-corporate Democrat stooge. AOC might actually have a fighting chance compared to her predecessors. But she'll never be able to be the Democratic candidate until the old guard of leadership is replaced, let's face facts.
