        No distillation is really necessary. I'd call it 'sampling.'

        She is very generous with older voters but that is the only discourse you can have.

        Maybe because it's a new feeling to me, but it feels weird to see someone my own age in politics, and actually respect and feel a little inspired by them.

        @AOC is a better candidate than @SenSanders — she will take hos movement into the future.

        I have to ask, how is there a 'botched cornavirus' handling within the Trump Admin? Can you explain the problem? You say this as factual in the context of opinion writing- where is the disaster?

        U think cases/deaths equate to botched handling by WH? Absurd. U don't think Americans are not worried about the economy, their investments, incomes /jobs right now? How dare WH think about the economy; global concerns on both fronts, health and financial. Called multi-tasking.

        @AOC is generationally good at this, not for her own benefit, but for what she stands for and how her peers feel.
