Happy to see Ocasio-Cortez failing already, her 15 minutes looks like it might be down to the last few seconds.

She's not ready for prime time. Republicans should be hoping she wins; Democrats should be hoping she loses. The district is midnight blue, so why not support a D rep who is going to be ineffective? She also will not be an effective ambassador for socialism, which is also a plus at a time when socialism is growing in popularity among younger voters.

Video: do Ocasio Cortez supporters understand socialism:


interviewer: "who, in your mind, should pay for all the free things?"
AOC supporter: "some of it should come from taxes, but the government should pay for it"

They aren't any more stupid or indoctrinated than Trump's supporters--who believe in trickle down economics which proved totally wrong when Reagan first promoted that idea and that you can cut the government's tax base and still provided billions for relief for big Ag because of Trump's tariffs and enlarge the military's budget w/o any needed increase in tax base

Half of them probably think it is ok to allow asbestos to come back into use...

BS, socialism started in the Midwest. It is for the workers, not the elites.
