this is why I post those long rants about how conservatives are screwing up here and creating their own frankenstein's monster

it's all personal attacks against her. people calling her names and repeatedly insulting her intelligence with no substance

doing that has made her significantly more well known and popular than she would have been without conservative help

it's like you guys learned absolutely nothing from your own guy winning largely due to what you guys are doing to AOC now


The key difference is that trump had a platform which was appealing, or at least tolerable, to half the country. Enough to win an election. AOC doesnt.

I'd bet her platform and rhetoric will be a lot more tolerable and appealing in 10-15 years when she has a decade and a half of building a base and experience and she gets a lot more politically savvy

you guys will be looking around wondering how this happened when it was conservatives that gave her the most help

she will either mellow to a less radical version of her current self, or crash and burn. sustaing a political career for 10-15 years and staying relevant outside of her D+37 district will not be possible if she stays as radical as she is now.
same would also apply to trump btw, there's no way someone like him could stay in a national and elected office over a period of 15 years. he'll have trouble winning the one reelection campaign he needs to run after 5 years in politics, and anything beyond that would be impossible. I'd guess that at least half his voters wouldl be sick of him less than 2 years into his 2nd term.
