To me.
Even though i long stopped watching day-to-day politics in your has-been Sheeple of a Tribal BadLand.
I am fascinated by AOC and as usual from me this is about politics as a sport, not about my opinion. Full disclosure: Anything from her too far Leftism, to her demeanor, to the generation she represents, to the mindset I really can't stand. And i so hope Democrats like Rahm or Beshear or Shapiro can prevail.
But as someone who said a year ago that AOC is not to be underestimate I still feel that.
Her political skill----is very good. She can adjust---a useful trait.
IF MAGA is strong in 2028 methinks she'll just do Senate like I said a year ago. And even if she doesn't ever get the White House she can be the Ted Kennedy one day. Very powerful.
BUT if MAGA is in shambles as I think it will be...I continue to say. Don't underestimate her chances.
If the centrists all run and divide up that vote.....and AOC can be the *sole* progressive ....she can win the nomination with plurality of votes JUST like Trump did in 2016.
And if things are in the shitter with people scared and desperate - they'll vote for her. Even some red-hats who won't admit it to their friends out there.
She's the most exciting thing I am watching in politics.
This, followed by my *hope* that Bill Clintonism can win the day in the party ---and the presidency and Senate also.
Also if there is a legit election 2028 I'm wondering who will try to claim the MAGA mantle but also---whole will sit back, wait for MAGA to fizzle and then take the party back over in 2030-2032 is.
Ok so there's some fun stuff to watch.
The day to day Sheeple show - ok it's fun when laws get broken. Or you people can't realize that the political viiolence and tribalization and bad cultrue have all come to. roost.

Until I got to that line, I was thinking "he thinks there will be an election in 28? how quaint"

60% yes. 40% no.
In a tribal country where the sects, castes, and muftis are at war with each other.
Where the people *don't* have a common knowledge nor resepct for their heritage, their civics, their rights.....
One cannot take future elections for granted.
This train left the station.
But it *can* be slowed down.
