Folks here love to laugh about the occasional communist.
But I live in Western Connecticut, and on weeknights I put on the local ABC station in New York to watch Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune.
Nearly all the addspace in these two timeslots is being bought by candidates for the NY demo-communist mayoral primary (and a few other offices).
There are many of these candidates who are going out of their way to present their "endorsements" by AOC and Elizabeth Warren, amongst others. In New York, if you're running for demo-communist office, it's a big selling point.
Of course, I keep the sound turned off for all the commercials. I couldn't stand to listen to that tripe.
But laugh all you want at the occasional communist.
She remains a force to be reckoned with in The Party...
