    No. Hell no. This is just sad, honestly. And dumb. @AOC doesn’t need to be reigned in. What’s ignorant is that the Democrats in this article say she shouldn’t be critical of Democrats WHILE they are critical of her - a Democrat. Carry on @AOC.https://www.politico.com/story/2019/01/11/alexandria-ocasio-cortez-democrats-establisment-1093728 …

        Not only are you not going to rein in @AOC, she’s just getting started, and our greatest hope is that Congress be filled with courageous women just like her.

        The mainstream Democrats need to stop trying to be GOP-lite. The Dems need to be more AOC, less GOP.

        I've voted Dem 99% of the time and what's exasperating is the GOP digging in their heels and dragging everything further right and the Dems letting them do it in the spirit of "compromise" instead of having some backbone. Kudos to AOC for bringing some long-overdue change.

        I read this article this morning and it reminded me how out of touch the party is with my generation of voters. @AOC is representing us well her voice is what we need!

        @AOC is doing her damn best to lead with something that the establishment mostly lacks. Honor and integrity. I’ll back her any way I can.

        (watching AOC from Canada) She is a god send for the Democrats. They desperately need someone inspired to pull them left & stand for something. Won't be easy for her to be a lightening rod, but she will be covering fire for 2020 candidates. Very impressed!!

        Women, especially younger women are tired of being told to "wait their turn". It IS Congresswoman @AOC Ocasio-Cortez's turn. Best of luck AOC!

        This ☝️ I admire her confidence! I prefer Democratic Party reps to think for themselves and rep their district’s constituents. Best solutions are found when a variety of talents and ideas are welcomed. And I think Democrats generally do that.

        Is there anything more absurd in our congress than the idea that seniority matters? They are all elected to equal positions. If anything a newly elected congressperson has the largest mandate to be exactly who they ran on being and to be heard.

        100% Appoinments shouldn’t be careers. We’d have so much less corruption if people would do their 2 terms for the people and get out!

        These are the same centrists who claim progressive policies while campaigning and then reserse course when elected. I’ll take radicalism over hypocrisy any day.
