      I actually agree. I think she should openly challenge Schmuck for his seat, and make him fight for it, or quit. Then go to work in the Senate, destroying any attempted MAGA SCOTUS or Cabinet appointments.

      Tear up the Senate for a term or two, and then start looking at a presidential run, or a Cabinet post, depending on the timing, then a presidential run.

      Or just stay in the Senate, and run your own joint. It’s a whole separate branch, after all, equal to the president. It would be good to have someone running it who isn’t afraid to remind them of that.

      She’s smart enough to navigate a track like that.

      They(MAGA adverts) giving her free publicity here as a radical leftist (along with Bernie.)

      I primaried for Bernie. AOC would get my vote.

        I voted for Bernie twice, donated and door knocked. I will do the same for her, but the results will be the same unfortunately the DNC is captured.

          I remain hopeful of a progressive resurgence.

          Gerrymandering can become dummymandering if they spread the red too thin.

          Hopefully it won’t be excessively bloody, but they seem to already be onboard with that. So it’ll probably become necessary.

            I talking primary they don’t have to allow her in them and they close them pick whoever they want as their candidate. It going be Newsome.
