This is about AOC losing her bid for the Oversight committee to a geriatric Dem lifer. Sure she has systematically shredded any last bit of credibility with her triangulation, but hey, at least all the 5D polítical chess is paying off! She's changing the system from the inside! It's working this time!

Girl, you abandoned any pretense of doing working-class mass politics when you decided to do insider politics! Why are you tweeting like Bernie Sanders circa 2012? There's no we! There's no mass movement behind you! It's just NYC DSA and some Warren libs (but I repeat myself)

i remember her being on a livestream a few weeks before the election saying she didn't want trump to win because four more years of the activist schtick would be annoying and tiresome for her. straight up annoyed that she would have to pretend to care again. that was her only concern. I hope she rots.

Sorry, it got a little intense here, but it’s ’cause we’re eight days out from an election and I’m losing my mind. And I’ve got a little smoke coming out the top of my head. But [laughs] get it together! Get it together! Cast your vote so we can be done with this! I do not want to do four more years of resistance nonsense under Donald Trump, okay? Like, good God. Like, do we remember what it was like waking up every day and there was some shit going on?
