I’m 54 and I’m tired of this old guard. We need some new blood and energy.

The US democracy is so fucked by the winner-takes-it-all system. In a healthy political system, AOC and the other real progressives would just fuck off and do their own party that would end up with house seats the next election.

I believe there was some discussion about that prior to the election, yes.

All she needs to do as far as I'm concerned is tell us when and where.
