The days when we didn't yet realize there are Democrats and then there are Democrats who sit and vote with Republicans. AOC do a bad by you? I see it more as her trying to throw out a flotation device for struggling Republicans drowning in trumpism's backwash. Hope she does well there. Too bad most senators pay little heed to lowly house members.
