Moments like this are what people who mock the both sides argument tend to gloss over. The antics of the current democratic leadership and this constant need to chase those mythical swing voters clearly displays what the both sides discussion should really be about.

And as far as AOC is concearned I still have faith in her politics but it's obvious she's making concessions to try and get leverage in other areas. Remember when she first arrived in office she had a very aggressive staff that had her attacking Pelosi and camping out in her office. She quickly found out that doing that all the time made it so she didn't get any committe assignments and aside from her floor votes couldn't really use her seat to affect any change/policy.

There will be a point mind you that too many concessions will cause her to lose sight of her original goals but hopefully she's aware and doesn't go too far.
The system was designed like that on purpose. Everybody loses sight of their goals when put in the machine

The crazy thing is she could have voted NO and it still would have passed and she could save face. But the Jews already got her in such a chokehold she can't even vote against their interest even in name only. She is a politician in NY no way she can go against the Jews and last.

Mamdani won the Jewish vote in NY and is vocally anti-Israel (to the extent that Palestinians having equal rights is anti-Israel). The problem is the lobbying of AIPAC and similar groups that make it difficult.
