@AOC is the perfect example of why there is no such thing as a Progressive Democrat. What we have to understand is that whenever an inspiring outsider steps into the Democratic Party, they will be ground into an incremental shill. I think January 6th scared any scrap of progressivism she had left, after being muzzled by Nancy Pelosi for 4 years. It’s funny that most Democrats aspire to be FDR like when he was the furthest from anyone claiming his approach was incremental. The Progressive citizenry has to come to terms with the fact that they must abandon anyone who says they will join that party and make a difference, because the only difference coming is the shift in their internal compass. The best thing to come from her wild endorsement of Joe Biden, before the race has even really begun, is that her constituents now know who she really is and how she gave up on any fight long ago. If she’s that concerned with the Senate and how they’re failing the US, one would expect her to champion an idea like Rank Choice Voting, but my guess is she plans to complete her establishment metamorphosis into a Neoliberal within that 100 seat chamber. Time will tell what becomes of the woman who claimed she was going to “bring the ruckus.”
