I have a genuine question for AOC fans

[Warren Moon]

When she attacks other democrats, why do you think their supporters won’t react negatively?

Elected officials represent the ideals of the majority of their constituents believe in. So when she attacks fellow democrats left and right, she essentially attacking the voters that represent the democratic base and what they believe in.

I think her national approval ratings will steadily decrease because she attacks loads of other democrats.

If you think this is the wrong synopsis, why do you feel that way? I’m truly looking for an answer, bc Idk how that’s a winning strategy long term.

 

[StatUS]

Is she attacking them personally or on the issues? Is she being hypocritical based on what she ran on and got elected for? Is she a complete isolationist in Congress or has she worked with her party to create legislation?

She barely attacks fellow Dems. Most of her venom is for Republicans.
No and no. This guy is just a sensitive centrist. lol
She only need be loyal to her constituents not all Democratic constituents at large. While she does have a national profile I think she needs to get out of the limelight a bit. You don't have to be in the national media expressing your opinion on every issue.

I’m not a centrist I’m a black first progressive.

I mean she attacked Biden. She openly lobbied for 10+ democrats to be replaced, during the election.

She openly started attacking Nancy pelosi, the de facto leader of the party.

She has the most tweets attacking democratic colleagues by name.


And above all else, she disproportionately endorsed candidates running against African American incumbents

both she attacks policies and her fellow democrats by name, which is a stark contrast to someone like Jaypal. Who disagrees on policy but rarely attacks fellow dems by name.

I think she’s more of an isolationist, more than working within her party. I’ll use Jayapal as an example again, Jayapal works within the Democratic Party to push through her agenda. AOC attacks fellow dems by name when they disagree with her.

If your plan is to possibly run for the senate or maybe even president. Why attack specific democrats and their districts that you’ll eventually need? Makes zero sense to me

Sure you are. lol
What did she say about Biden that you interpret as an attack? All Democrats are good Democrats? What did she do action wise toward that effort?
And afterward they made up and she is calling Pelosi Momma bear now.
I'm sure she hase more tweets attacking Republicans.
She's not African American why do you think she should have some allegiance there?

Sounds like she's sticking to her principals and not selling out

Thought you'd fukk with that

And while I don't agree with everything AOC does or says, I respect her honesty and her platform

 

[Hood Critic]

AOC is doing exactly what she was elected to do, represent the new mindset of progressive Democratic ideals. I don't always agree with her tactics but she's continuing to be the person we originally loved.

I'm interested in seeing if she will continue to run after her second term or if she will move on as I don't think she'll have any issues getting re-elected.

I’m not a believer in racist leftism. I’m sure you’ll start seeing that term a year or two from now.

You don’t think she needs to align with the black part of the party or at minimum not strategically try to remove them from office?

I respect ppl who stick to their word. Bernie does.

My only gripe is attacking the base of the parties elected officials. They’re in power because ppl have the same idea/l’s that they do.

there’s literally no one else I can think of that attacks multiple members of the party by name and repeatedly does it.

 

[☑︎#VoteDemocrat]

she's been shifting away from being adversarial with other democrats lately

Would you agree or disgree that there are Dems that play the fool with people's votes and do things that are not in the best interest of the the party or its constituents?

 

[Domingo Halliburton]

She attacks them because they suck.

absolutely, but that’s not an overarching definition for the ppl she targets. If it was 2-4 specific individuals that she targets I’d understand.

She’s well over 30-40. Most of whom do not fit the example u just provided

Congress has ridiculously low approval ratings. People aren't fans of politicians and their agendas, many of the dem incumbents continue to win because they never have primary challengers and the people in those districts would rather have a Democrat than a Republican. Being willing to shine a light on what these politicians are doing wrong, regardless of which side they're on will get positive results. It's exactly how Trump got elected, even though he was full of shyt.
