The New York congresswoman said that the justices' refusal to recuse from certain prominent cases “constitutes a grave threat to American rule of law.”
AOC suffers the same problem as Nancy Peloci: she’s too demonized by the GOP. It’s an odd problem to have but she would need to retire from the House for a few years and run later.
If you want AOC-like, Kathy Porter is actually a very viable candidate. The question is whether the DNC is willing to let her actually run or if they’ll pull a “It’s Hillary’s turn” like they did to Bernie.
Voters do after decades of shit tactics, but she hasn’t been embroiled in anything and they haven’t had time to really put it into people’s subconscious.
Also, I agree with your sentiment. I can’t give the slightest shit what a bunch of homophobic, regressive, hateful, Nazi cuntbags and their enablers think. If we work hard and get lucky we may be able to live in a world where what they think never matters again.
Democrats always want to please the GOP. Anytime they appoint someone (for example a special counsel) it always has to be a Republican to avoid the bad optics. Fuck that noise.
Meanwhile the GOP takes its gifted position and furthers it’s goals.
This will be true of any candidate another party runs. It is their primary MO, so ultimately, it needs to be factored out of discussions like these. If Joe Voter believes that shit anyway, it doesn’t actually matter what candidate you run.
I think AOC has a lot of the same features that made Bernie so popular on 2016 with the added benefit of youth.
The GOP will try to demonize, but she will rise above the noise the same way Bernie did. Given that she is so young, she can stay relevant and pick and choose the exact moment she wants to run for president. Or even VEEP as the gateway to presidency.

Who gives a shit what the GOP wants.
The GOP demonizing her is a good thing. It means they are scared of her.
Right? We get it, the GOP wants to watch the world burn.
