minus-squareZaktorlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·5 months agoAOC could unify the party behind her, but she’d need to do it with a primary. The Biden delegates and/or the party establishment aren’t going to make a wild swing-for-the-fences play like that with an appointment.
minus-squarexmunk@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up4·5 months agoI don’t disagree. I think she’d be an excellent choice and absolutely trounce Trump but it’d be a hard fucking sell to the DNC. She’s got more name recognition than Harris though so the “Harris is the only one voters would recognize” bunch can get fucked.
