      I mean she does sometimes so not going to fully disagree with you. However she is currently on tour with Bernie pissing off Chuck and Nancy lol

      That said doesn’t need to be her necessarily I just mean that fielding someone to challenge would be good.

      We gotta do something though as a whole, and I don’t see why executing every potential avenue isn’t beneficial. Run a challenge, run as an independent etc

        I don’t believe that either Bernie nor AOC are pissing off the Democratic leadership. I believe that the democratic leadership is letting them proselytize voters back into the democratic fold so that the leadership doesn’t have to adapt or change in any meaningful way.

          We’ll have to agree to disagree there, I don’t think your points stupid I just don’t agree.

          That said even if that’s true it’d still make sense to primary challenge imo there’s no reason not to.
