    Okay, so question: Why, in two out of the last three election cycles, has the DNC put forward “utterly terrible politicians” as the party leader and candidate for the world’s highest office?

      “The DNC” is people voting.

      Because a non-terrible candidate would do popular things they don’t want to do? What even is this question?

        So either AOC is a terrible politician or the DNC won’t push her.

          The DNC likely won’t push her, they’ll push Newsom or Harris (she’s already mentioned she’s thinking about running again)

            And they’ll say AOC shouldn’t run because a woman can’t win up until the very second Harris announces.

      Because if they can’t win with their corpo zombie zionist center-right candidate, they’d rather lose and play feckless controlled “opposition” than do anything to jeopardize their gravy train with a progressive.
