Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., said she doesn't mind being labeled "radical," but doesn't see herself as a "flamethrower."
"There's a lot of folks that I think sometimes want to brand me as a flamethrower. But really the truth, I think the truth of what I am is a consensus builder," Ocasio-Cortez told CBS' "60 Minutes" in a behind-the-scenes clip from her Sunday night interview.
"I like to think that I'm persuasive," the New York Democrat, who self-identifies as a Democratic Socialist, said. "And so I think a lot of what work is gonna be on building relationships and trying to persuade and talk to my colleagues on building a progressive agenda for the party."
