Independent Senator Bernie Sanders floated Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as a potential presidential candidate in the 2028 elections, saying that even though it’s “her decision to make,” she is a “very, very good politician.”
Speaking to Axios, Sanders said that he has been “out on the streets with her” and noticed how she responds when people come up to her. “It’s so incredibly genuine and open.”
Ocasio-Cortez is seemingly positioning herself to run for higher office, whether it is challenging Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer for his seat or to make a run for president.
Even with everything you said the choice was clear. And not voting for Harris was as bad as voting trump
I voted for Harris. Not that it mattered because my state is solidly blue.
But voters aren’t big calculators. The people you lose in turnout are just running on vibes and competing with the couch. “My life sucks and you say you’re not going to change anything” is a bad vibe. Even if a rational person would say “but the other guy is going to make it worse”.
We’ve essentially had 4 of the last 5 elections be won by the candidate who campaigns on “change” and she rolled up as an incumbent saying it’s going to keep on exactly like it is. Unless things are fucking amazing that’s a really bad message.
Most people eho don’t vote lost trust in the system. Your rhetoric is the same as those who blame people being poor on laziness and playing video gsmes all days
