    Democrats who think the 2020 election will be defined by AOC and not by the party's presidential ticket are engaged in hand-wringing more powerful than anything previously observed by science.

        Republicans will indeed buy ads pointing out how much Dems vote with AOC (they've said so, read my newsletter) but just try to picture an October 2020 ad in which the GOP is ignoring, I dunno, Inslee/Delaney to focus on a House member.

        Hand-wringing over AOC, is exactly why Trump will be re-elected. Sighs..

        After Democrats nominate a candidate, I'm sure Republicans will keep their focus on AOC because they know their #1 priority in 2020 is defeating the Congresswoman from Queens.

        @SpeakerPelosi is the one attracting attention to @AOC. Pelosi is also appeasing and enabling Trump.

        Almost every candidate agreed with the most extreme leftwing position on questions polled during the debate. The presidential ticket and AOC's agenda appear to be in lockstep.

        The extreme left wing positions of "lets not murder immigrants", "lets give people education so they can be productive workers, "lets not have the highest medical costs in the world by an enormous margin", and "lets not cause ecological catastrophes"

        Way to go out on limb... of course it will be "defined" by the names on the ticket itself. To suggest that AOC is not going to be a significant influence is to 1) deny what she is trying to accomplish and 2) frankly dishonest.

        she & the Squad are more like a distraction WOC who they can fetishize over on Fox news , why focus on Maxine Waters anymore AOC is younger & cuter either way the will vilify them all the same fictional narrative
