Why did AOC vote to tank the rail union strike?

I try not to let perfect be the enemy of good. She might not always be right. She might have done some political background dealing that we aren't privy to. People will always compromise a little in politics. Try to understand that when you are looking for teammates.

She has not been good, shes a sheepdog keeping disenfranchised voters rounded up in the party with the illusion that the have an advocate in government and will soon have a seat at the table.

AOC will be Bernie's replacement as DNC sheepdog. The DNC has always had a party sheepdog going back to 1984 with Jesse Jackson
