Ocasio-Cortez warns of ‘dangerous authoritarian expansion of power’ in Supreme Court
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) on Sunday warned of an “authoritarian expansion of power” by the Supreme Court after it released several controversial opinions in it’s last week of the…
I'd vote for her in a heartbeat.
In a more reasonable world, I would like to see her get at least 5 more years experience as a senator before running.
Yeah, this is not the reasonable world timeline so lets get her going!
Can you explain what she's done since she's been in office? All I see is her virtue signaling on social media. I wasn't a fan of her faked border pictures of her crying at a fence when it was proven there was nothing on the other side and she just did it for publicity. I've never seen her argue anything of actual substance and research beyond the usual Democratic dog whistles.
Please at least explain to me why you like her if you're gonna downvote me. Please be specific. Most people that like her just seem to like her because she's a Democrat but then she acts super sketch like when it came down to force the vote and her not voting in the direction that her supporters and constituents wanted. She just seems more like a typical neo-lib.
What is "virtue signaling" in this case? Proposing and advocating for progressive legislation? Refusing to vote on controversial policies that are endorsed by the party? Using her bully pulpit to try and push issues?
Voting no on the debt ceiling bill was not very "neoliberal". But I guess that "doesn't count" since it passed anyway?
Seems to me that "virtue signaling" is just a disingenuous way to discredit someone doing the job of being an elected legislator. Don't vote for her if you don't like her, but try to have an actual specific reason for it.

I am not aware of a single piece of legislation she has sponsored that got passed.
AOC as the Democrat's candidate seems like a path to another Trump-type Republican in the White House. There must be few Democrats the Republicans would prefer to face in a national election.
It might not be inspiring, but for now I just want the Democrats to nominate moderate presidential candidates who will win. Even the worst Democrat is light years ahead of the best post-Trump Republican. There's too much at stake and the world literally might not survive the consequences of the next Trump or Trump-like presidency.
How exactly is AOC remotely comparable to trump?
She’d get my vote.
She could be the first female President of the United States, after the loss of Hillary Clinton to Donald Trump.
But not for at minimum one more cycle, which is a political eternity.
I don't think so. She often stumbles over her words which isn't very good when you are running for president.
Also I still don't think the country is ready to vote for a woman president.
I mean I'd love to see it but I just don't think it will happen.
