Not a huge AOC fan based on her moves the last few years, but it's a bad look for dude when she refuses to endorse him. Wasn't he fired?
Yea he was fired they obviously have some issues. I think the bigger issue is have is she hasn't really endorsed anyone and refuses to go to online media spaces. But she's better than 99% of dems

From my reading, he using pictures of them together in his campaign ads. That feels like a tacit endorsement, which is nasty and says something about his character. (Cornyn did same for Trump down here)
As for media spaces, what exactly are those? Sunday Morning shows are nonsense to me and don’t touch on issues Americans face. Those shows are tools for those in power to share their personal message on very high-end stuff. If legislators are not on those shows, good. They are mostly useless except for those who work in policy and Capitol Hill media in DC.
If she ain’t on podcasts, or others in the new media ilk, then I agree that’s a major issue.

She doesn't really go on podcast or new media, she tends to shy away from media and only really go on if its very curated. She's going to go into 2028 very unprepared for long form media sort've like how kamala was. I think she's generally afraid of any criticism

since progressives aren't serious people, their expectations are blocking her out of running for a real higher office
as soon as she starts moving to the center, to try to actually win statewide elections, the left will accuse her of being "muh a genocide supporter", or "muh capitalist", or "muh transphobic", or "muh campaigning with liz cheney", or whatever low-IQ slop their purity tests consist of at that point in time
and the image AOC has cultivated as a "perfect" progressive champion will be ruined
Maybe she’s afraid of more than just district office vandalism if she dares to cross her hyper online cult.since progressives aren't serious people, their expectations are blocking her out of running for a real higher office

When you got Always On Camera afraid to be on camera you got a problem
I think I saw someone say she shys away from media.
But I think they were being dishonest because she's been on over 40 podcasts and over 159 media appearances since she's been on the scene.
Not to mention Left-wing host says AOC uses ‘Trump-like’ attacks on media critics in voting record dispute
That's terrible ro khanna for example has done that in a year.I think I saw someone say she shys away from media.

I think it is clear she has some personal problems with him. But in terms of politics, he is clearly the most left-leaning option for that seat. She should be able to put aside personal grievances for the greater political good.
Besides gaming with Hasan, Majority Report and Pod Save, I can’t recall her going on a podcast in the last couple years.
She has a massive online platform so she does her IG lives which get hundreds of thousands or millions of views.
It tells me she isn’t going to run for POTUS.
Whereas Ro Khanna is on every podcast, does a a one hour national progressive town hall with Thom Hartmann every couple weeks, goes on every cable channel, and does the Sunday shows. I don’t think he’s going to win a primary but he’s clearly going to run.
It really isn't. She's nothing more than a house rep. She isn't in party leadership. And she isn't running for a higher office.
Ro khanna and AOC both have around 150 appearances a year.
2025 being a bigger traditional media year with about 1 per week for Ro.
Whereas AOC is more active in the digital space. Regardless, her imprint is still larger than his.
Stop arguing for arguments sake. Shy of being in party leadership or a serious presidential candidate she's out there more than damn near every other representative.
Folks are just skewed because they have made their baseline Trimp/Bernie when those two are outliers.
