I don’t think she has a chance in the general if I’m honest. She won’t even make it to nomination. However it would help with the Overton window if she ran. We need someone in the race with no gray hairs who will speak truth plainly. It’s amazing how long it’s been since we even saw that happen.
AOC is my second favorite serving politician after Bernie, she would be a great President.
But I'm afraid that the Democratic leadership will squash her, as they did to Bernie. She's pro worker, and the Ds abandoned labor long ago (and they were paid well to do so).
If she runs, I am voting for her, whether it's with Democrats or DSA or Green.
DNC want to keep her away from Schumer's senate seat.
Schumer is 76. He should retire. This is ridiculous, go out and enjoy your life. Advocate for AIPAC. Do something else.
Every time I get a text pretending to be from Shumer begging for donations I cringe at how many people just yelled fuck you at their phone. Doddering bastard.
I’d sure rather vote for her than Harris or Newsom and realistically, idk who else is gonna run.
Lets wait and see how well the DSA and the Democrats in general manage to do in the midterms and with keeping their promises if they get majorities again before we start making any lofty 2028 Presidential plans.
I'll support her and anyone she supports if she fails to secure the nomination for herself.
Honestly we need her in the Senate for at least two terms before she's president, once she's served her terms as president she'll be stuck as powerless as Obama probably feels rn, let's milk having someone like her for as long as possible, and that starts with her taking that feckless shit head Schumer's Senate seat.
poor aoc, great leadership qualities but when she had a chance to ditch the dsa she doubled down on the commie cesspit
maybe by the time she does run the mamdani feedback loop will have turfed out the commie mystics
Obama is only "powerless" because he has chosen to be.
Taft became the Chief Justice of The US Supreme Court after leaving the office of president.
