Activists don’t turn into successful legislators until they remember they aren’t activists anymore. Compromise isn’t a dirty word.

That's the thing. Activists absolutely DO have a place *in society* and they're essential to making progress. However, their entire existence is built on the concept of fierce, unrelenting advocacy. Those qualities may be GREAT for lobbying but they don't work for governing.

Most of the country is horrified as they see Trump raping and pillaging as Pelosi & other leadership stand blithely by with their fingers in the air deciding on the political calculations of opposing him. Get out of the way Pelosi! We need real leadership.

What a formidable team Nancy Pelosi and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez would make if they could accept each other's strengths and support the other when necessary.

AOC’s ego and self-righteousness is far to great for her to accept compromises. She is one of those activists who are good at starting a revolution, rallying the crowd, but terrible at execution and coming up with practical solutions.

I agree but I think it's more about respecting her co-workers not necessarily her elders. It's about respecting viewpoints other than her own in order to make the country run. That being said, there are fights that are worth fighting; I'm disappointed in our Dem leadership

Disagree - they have no desire to see Trump win. Yes, they do need to figure out how to push but still collaborate with people they may not agree with. They do have 7 mm followers and that’s a powerful voice. Nancy rocks though - she has to manage these voices - tough job!
