Summary
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) called for Democrats to elect “brawlers” who fight for the working class to counter GOP power and oppose policies endorsed by figures like Elon Musk.
Speaking alongside Sen. Bernie Sanders in Las Vegas, she criticized Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer for not filibustering a GOP spending bill and labeled the decision a “tremendous mistake.”
Ocasio-Cortez urged voters to support candidates willing to take bold stances.
She continues her “Fighting Oligarchy” tour with Sanders across Nevada, Colorado, and Arizona.
Sure thing, wish for this perfect future where good politicians just spring up organically rather than expect a politician here and now in reality to have any sort of successful plan.
And give me a break with this ‘blame Warren’ crap. When she was leading and Bernie had just had a heart attack, he stayed in rather than bowing out to build momentum. Two egotistical politicians both thought they had the right (or responsibility) to stay in a race to represent their ideas and politics. Warren’s voters definitely 100% would not have made Bernie win, and in all likelihood a Warren polling at 50% still wouldn’t have caused a runway as all the others suddenly decided the economics of M4A was the most important issue for Democrats to spend the entire primary on.
Except now one of these egotistical politicians is preparing people to take over and the other doesn’t seem to have any plan for what happens after he retires or (more likely) dies in office.
