Ocasio-Cortez does much better individually as part of a permanent, principled opposition than she would on the fringes of a centrist party in power. But the country would be far better off with the latter.https://twitter.com/AOC/status/1175619319432196096 …

But seriously purity politics of the left really has little to do with impeaching. The only correlation you can draw is she knows several of her positions are going to go against the establishment anyway so she is long out of fucks to give or anything to gain by toeing the line.
