New York Rep.-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez backs calls from fellow progressives to mount primary campaigns against moderate Democrats whose politics they believe are to the right of their constituents’.
“Long story short, I need you to run for office,” Ocasio-Cortez said on a video conference call hosted by the leftist Justice Democrats, as the group launched a campaign dubbed #OurTime, Politico reported. https://nypost.com/2018/11/19/ocasio-cortez-pushes-for-a-leftist-revolt-in-the-democratic-party/ |

Excellent.
We should donate a couple dozen RINOs to her Leftist cause. |

Obama destroyed the Democratic Party exactly the way he wanted to. It is not the party of the Clintons and Ted Kennedy anymore. Masks are off and gloves are off and this is what will rise from its ashes. Buy it cheap and stack it deep, nerds.

It was just a matter of time until they started eating each other.
The next great step forward will happen when the neo-Marxists, little Bolsheviks start eliminating each other. That, and the fact that basic math works against them. In the end, you can't escape an accounting of all figures. Just sit back, have a Coke, and enjoy life. this one is going to implode all on its own without any help. |
|
I’m ok with this. Something about never interfere with your enemy while they are making a mistake...?
|
|
Hopefully by 2020 the democrats are in a civil war amongst themselves
|
|
We are just starting to scratch the surface of that woman's insanity.
She is going to be VERY fun to watch in the upcoming months until they reel her in! |
|
They do believe that going further left will save the party.
The younger crown is all about political violence |
|
Sounds good to me. Maybe they should split off into their own party, even.

|
Im starting to think shes a righty plant to disrupt the democratic party from the inside

Great. Split the party and make yourselves look like nutters to the moderate sheep.
|
|
If she, and those like her, get frustrated. And, they will. I think they will warm up the Shining Path playbook. America is not Chile.

Why are people on our side cheering this?
Look at Krysten Sinema in Arizona. She is a radical leftist who was not hiding her true positions and won a state-wide election in AZ. Be careful what you wish for.... |

LOL she can't keep her mouth shut. What a shitshow this will be

She'll be found with a gun and a suicide note and 4 bullets in the back of her head.

Oh I cannot wait for her home movies to hit the net. That'll be a great evening.

The law of unitended consequences leads me to believe that this will push the majority of dems to the middle. A show of force by the commies is a big motivator for allot of people. Couple that with the fact that these useful idiots cannot debate their way out of a paper bag will provide a target rich environment to display the illogic and danger of socialism. She may be the best thing to happen to the conservatives in decades and, I suspect, she will rue the day she threw her beret in the ring.

in all fairness she is, truely the face of the New Democrats.
Young, demanding, utterly incompetent, incapable of fulfilling duties of her position and has the prerequisite of being a minority. All of the former will be ignored by the virtue signaling of the latter. She is, for all intents and purposes, A Useful Idiot for those will are in control of her |
|
Let me guess...she expected praises and to be appointed to some high powered committees and it turned out no one else gave two hoots about her in Congress.
This is her way of striking back. |

Do you think this dimwit cares if she gets a post on a committee? or if she becomes part of the establishment within the political class? No, she is not going to just blend in with the rest of the freshman class. She is a radical who wants radical change. You don't get that by going along |

This might be the beginning of the end for two party system. Its interesting that within a few years, both parties have begun to transform radically. I foresee you will eventually have at least four parties.
Trumpians - Populist, protectionist, hawkish, anti-immigration. Might be willing to dump pro-life and war on drugs. GOP(e) - Pro Business, possibly the party of "morality". They'll have to cater to the Christian Right to survive. Democrats - Basically what we have now. They will throw crumbs at their constituents while basically staying pro-business in many ways. Will cater unions, private and public. Socialists - Unabashed, full retard, european styled socialism. |

Be careful how happy you are with this.
Far left idiot fringe also allows not-so-far leftists to present themselves as moderates and get elected. |

I said it when the occupy movement started, the communists think they have enough numbers and power to win. The enemy doesn't show his hand until he feels sure victory is certain, or at the very least probable.
They did it in the 60s but they overplayed their hand. They still got the education system, the media, and Hollywood to move much further to the left. Today we're seeing the results of the seeds they planted back then. They have manufactured fake outrage and false movements and in that in conjunction with the brainwashing of academia has turned the youth to their side. People by and large want to be part of something bigger than themselves, and younger people even moreso. The left is very good at giving them something to be a part of. We, on the right, pretty much suck at it, partially because if you're conservative, you're self sufficient, and individual freedom is the main goal, so it's almost like herding cats to get people motivated. Our best movements come when our rights are threatened, and even then we can be our own worst enemy. The communists have enough control of the Dem party to make a power grab, and they're doing it. I believe they will get control, not complete, but they will get enough to own the party. The thing is, they live in a vacuum, and they believe there are far more of them in this general population than there actually are, and what will happen is that they will lose national elections in larger numbers than ever, and they'll lose purple states as well. But, they'll regroup, and when all you do is promise free things, that's a very easy sale to the ignorant and gullible, especially young minds that are being corrupted by the educations system. Folks, we're fighting the Clone Wars, and have been for a long time. Something I've also said a hundred times. If we do not get our kids that are conservative into the education field, and take that back from the commies, we are doomed. They have more time with your kids than you do from K-college. If all they are exposed to is leftists, then that is what they will believe. We have to take the education field back because they can program them faster than we can make them. |

The high fives for the people,protesting pelosi was a good start, and now this. She needs to keep chipping away at the foundation and keep them occupied countering her.
