Well Well Well....

I don’t always agree with AOC, but she’s a generational political talent.

pwbuffalo.bsky.social•77 days ago

If only she were 40 years older, then her own party might support her.

nctreedoc.bsky.social•77 days ago

Nah, she'd need to be way farther right for the Dems to support her.

For President? Not quite yet. But she has a future. I was surprised by the focus groups of conservatives who liked both Trump AND AOC—because they considered them both outsiders who spoke their minds. Folks on X may make fun but in real life voter attitudes these days come from vibes, not policy.

Or say if she was the chair of the oversight committee

Not as long as there’s the EC and massive voter suppression.

The elections are now based on how much money you get. People are easily fooled into narratives from whoever funds their favorite Media sources. This is also why Billionaires control the current government since Citizen United allowed unlimited political donations into super PACs.

My guess is that as the msm becomes illegitimate, these immediate platforms will become the de facto communcations for a younger electorate. AOC's and others truth-telling will still need to compete against the lies and hate on platforms controlled by corrupt corporate entities.

As the chaos intensifies, the midterms will indicate a national rebound for truth and competence, creating a path for people like AOC to take on larger roles in our government (if it still exists!) And bsky will be the new Rappler.

if you saw this post and read it as “AOC would absolutely win a national race” I invite you to work on your reading comprehension

bevball.bsky.social•78 days ago

it's not so much her ease or her style or anything other than the fact that she is correct and has good enough security, so far, to be able to speak the truth

Her chances in a national race are zero, so ...

mattmiller.bsky.social•78 days ago

i think you underestimate her floor in a ‘28 primary scenario

scottjenkins67.bsky.social•78 days ago

Not at all. Zero chance in a national race.

mattmiller.bsky.social•78 days ago

well, per the original post, I am interested in seeing if that’s true

doubleadub.bsky.social•78 days ago

Oh,God no...... please stop. We need an experienced older white man in 2028. I hate thst... Believe me. But we have run hyper qualified women twice and lost. America has told our woke asses that they are not ready. We must win in 2028. Older, white, male is our best chance. Sad, but true.

thepetershep.bsky.social•78 days ago

Yo've ran conservative women twice and lost

doubleadub.bsky.social•78 days ago

Yo've........ lolol

What???? Conservative? With all due respect, you're out of your mind.

Fuck the white dudes they are so 20th century

doubleadub.bsky.social•77 days ago

I agree! But right now, it is our best way forward. As I said, I don't like it. But I hate MAGA policies and I hate losing. We only fix things when we win. So we MUST win in 2026 and 2028. #BlueCrew

robe87.bsky.social•77 days ago

2026 Trump and MAGA must be defeated fuck that communist prick America you've swapped a guy called Joe Biden who served the people for 50 years and you've swapped him for guy some call Donald J Trump who has served himself for 70 years see the difference
