AOC primaried Joe Crowley in 2018 to win her seat. He was the #4 Democrat in the House at the time. He is still around. There is is very high liklihood that he returns the favor and primaries her back next year. If he does, she will almost certainly be a one-termer.
Enjoy the AOC fun and frivolity while you can. It probably will not last very much longer.
And I do not know who the options are in Ilhan Omar's district in Minnesota, but she is stunningly unpopular and will also likely lose a primary to a competent challenger.
Crowley just joined a company that helps businesses claim state and federal tax credits & relief. Among some other lobbying ties, traditional and not. I don't think he is going to go at AOC again. Will probably be somebody else.
Justice Democrats have announced backing several new candidates and expect to back dozens. Can they play offense and defense at same time? We'll see.
Sen. Kennedy of Louisiana called these chicks The Four Horsewomen of the Apocalypse
I'd say that's giving them too much credit for their influence. The Squalid Squad is an absolute gift for the Republican party. A group of far-left, America-hating racists and bigots-now the face of the Democratic party. Take Trump's phone away for the next year and let the Dems destroy each other.

The Republican answer would be: bootstraps son... bootstraps.
That's an appropriate answer if you have plenty of fertile farmland without modern technology and have fewer than 4 people per square mile - say, 1870 Kansas or even California at the same time. But in this day and age, things are going to be a little bit different. A lot of conservatives still can't deal with the fact that this is not the Westward Movement any more. Even the urban parts of the West are recognizing this (not just "The Left Coast").
The radical right is upset that the ladies aren't buckling to Trump's bullying like the weak spineless old man GOP like Graham.
He has a strong history of bullying women. I guess that's why 62 % of women in America aren't planning on voting for him. Maybe he doesn't yet understand how this will work for him.
I hope AOC and the other anti American Communists like Omar stay around for a very long time. They are the gift that keeps on giving.
They will allow Trump to win a 2nd well deserved term as POTUS, with ease.
