AOC seems to be acting like a 10-year-old threatening to take her ball and go home if her playmates don't give her what she wants.

Sandy, my advice is, "Don't let the door hit you...."

AOC QUITTING Politics? If She Doesn’t Get Her Way, She Says She Might…

(ThePatriotSource.com)- Over the weekend, AOC even suggested that her party, the Democrats, had treated her as “the enemy.” Instead of celebrating a possible Joe Biden win, AOC expressed her belief that the Democrats should embrace her radical socialist agenda or risk losing them.

But AOC isn’t sure yet.

“I genuinely don’t know,” she said. “I don’t even know if I want to be in politics. You know, for real, in the first six months of my term, I didn’t even know if I was going to run for re-election this year…It’s the incoming…it’s the stress…it’s the violence.”

Violence? What violence? The violence the country has seen this year has come overwhelmingly from far-left radicals, progressives, and socialists who protested against what they call “systemic racism” in the police. AOC has not been on the forefronts of condemning that violence, so it is unclear what violence she is referencing in the New York Times interview.

She's a 31 year old who was shoved into the national spotlight. Both sides of the isle hate her, and I assume she gets hate FROM both sides. I wouldn't blame anyone for second guessing that as a career choice, simply for mental health/quality of life.

I hope she does whatever makes her happy, and whatever is best for her personally.

People are getting violent over politics. On both sides. If you dont enjoy your job, do something else. Its not like she owes us. Thats not a "temper tantrum" or any other nonsense. Its someone telling you that they have free will.

She should go back to what she is qualified for such as bartending.

People who say they will take their ball and go home, usually don't mean it.

Especially when it's not their ball.

They're just looking for attention and sympathy.

This.

The House gig is a dream job for her. She gets wined and dined by the same industries she's trying to kill, earns almost $200k a year for doing nothing, and gets the mass media attention she craves. She's in a safe district, too, so she's just talking nonsense now.

Granted, while I despise her politics, I also don't want her to quit politics as we need her craziness on full display.
