Ocasio-Cortez took to Instagram after the Department of Homeland Security suggested they may pursue arrests of three Democratic lawmakers who partook in a protest outside of an ICE facility in Newark, New Jersey. Reps. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-NJ), Rob Menendez (D-NJ) and LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) all attended the protest.

    Male here. Hillary was probably the worst female option who’s ever ran for president.

    Kamala wasn’t much better, and felt like a rush job to prevent Biden being an easy sweep.

    Not that I’m advocating for trump in either case. I’m just saying its like the old south park joke of douche vs turd sandwich.

    Only difference is that AOC is actually a good choice. Whereas Hillary and Kamala were never good choices.

    I would fully support an AOC run. I would vote FOR AOC. Whereas with Hillary and Kamala it felt like it was voting against trump by selecting “whoever the opposition is”.

    Which for the record, isn’t a gender thing. Biden was also “not trump” on the ballots in 2020. You didn’t vote FOR Biden. You voted AGAINST trump.

      Hillary likely would have made a great moderate president. She was a “bad choice” only because Fox News attacked her for 20 years.

        Downvotes but she was a cool hippy chick once. Neoliberal was the game she chose to play and it might have worked if she played more on the radical side
