With Warren's statement commending AOC as the future of the party, I think AOC should be taken seriously and not just some bat crap crazy person that will eventually fade away. I see this new wave of younger DEMS as a formidable threat to our society.
Agreed.
However, back when politics seemed to have some rational basis for me, there was a saying "if you're younger than 25 and you're not a liberal you have no heart, and if you're older than 25 and you're not conservative you have no brain." For 30 years the press has told me the rats always get the youth vote, but look at the rats in office and their candidates for President. They're mostly a few bad years from a hospice. How does that happen?
After 40 straight years of rat rule in the House of Representatives, the GOP took control in 1994 and except for the last 2 years of Dubya, and the first 2 years of Obama they held it until 2018. Those House seats become Senate and Governor seats later...and eventually they become President. The rats have had a crappy farm team for a long time.
The rats got some life support in 2018 with the record number of democrat women and minorities President Trump elected to Congress. Could be the start of a trend, and politics has a history of being cyclical. I wouldn't underestimate AOC either when President Trump proves daily that one man's "bat crap crazy," is another man's "Make America Great."
