A. People don't cheer and rally for people they are on the fence about.
B. Votes aren't going to matter if people like AOC and Bernie just hold rallies. They should be rallying their colleagues to push through laws and lawsuits stopping musk and trump from dismantling checks and balances.
They're not just holding rallies, so what's your point? AOC did more than any elected Dem to try to pressure the Senate Dems not to cave on the CR. Why in the world would you be criticizing her and Bernie rather than the corrupt shitheads like Schumer and Durbin who caved?
I just don’t get it. On the merits the fecklessness of the Dems is bad but any one of them could secure their political fortunes forever by just doing something. Nancy Pelosi issued veiled criticism at Chuck Schumer and she was a hero for a full week! It’s baffling.
Both Representatives from New York who lied about their background in order to get elected and proceeded to do precisely NOTHING as a member of Congress
And both are under investigation by the Justice Department

This is useless. They need to rally their democratic senators and do something about musk. Not speak at an echo chamber.
While they were rallying in Denver trump shut down the department of education.
What they are doing is literally useless.
Voters > senators at this point. Senators already gave up.
B. It still matters electorally if they motivate swing voters, nonvoters, voters who sat out last time.
C. It still matters if they motivate progressives to organize, pressure Dems, participate in civil disobedience, etc.

So was George Santos
[The Northwestern part of Santos's district fits neatly into the Southeastern part of Cortez's]
