  1. She’s right. Whoever said that shit is a coward.

  2. Imagine a fuck face like this during the revolution or trying to fight for civil rights. People like this are not only why nothing gets done, they are part of why we are moving backwards

  3. Ocasio-Cortez, when you say the matter is “closed” about replacing Biden, you are also saying that you are resigned to a Trump win. So be fair here.

  4. Well… the party does seem to be resigned to a trump win. AOC is one of them

  9. The only ones resigned to a Trump win are the fucking MEDIA. In November… SHOW UP OR SHOW’S OVER.

  10. The Gorgonites in Small Soldiers were literally made to lose and they still have more spine than your average congressional democrat.

    A lot of people think Trump will coast out of sympathy but it’s actually going to be because dems will spend the next three months flagellating themselves for calling a fascist a fascist while being called baby-eating pedophiles.

  12. If anything is going to sink Biden’s chances it’s the dems complete lack of faith, tenacity, and resilience.

    This sky is falling schtick is pathetic. Now is the time to fight harder than ever. I really do not like Donald Trump but if there is one thing he understands about winning it’s that you never give up. The dems need to channel that determination or else they will be handing our country over to the christofascists.

  13. It’s amazing how the DNC will throw her under a bus the second a primary challenger against her stands a chance of winning and here she is going to bat for the establishment.

  14. Trump is the human manifestation if everything wrong with America…now is not the time to give up because of fear…

  15. Democrats need to stop rubbing their hands and being feckless. Holy shit, now isn’t the time to retreat in defeat. We are literally looking down the barrel of fascism with a second Trump term. Step up and stop 2024 from being stolen

  16. Safe seat politician tells others who are likely to now loose their seats to get over it.

    Great message.

  18. Although it’s discouraging right now, AOC is absolutely right about not giving up.

  19. When are people going to realize nobody is coming to save you? Politics wasn’t meant to be a team sport the way Republicans treat it. If you don’t want fascism then you need to be voting against fascist candidates. You need to speak up and support candidates who are running against fascists. You’ll never convince anyone with your lukewarm apathy.

    Take a stand.

  20. Yeah, this whole aim high while they aim low shit needs to stop.

  21. why, why, WHY must democrats continually bare their soft-white underbellies in an act of total submission? you can almost bet on it!

  22. Wake up, democrates. It’s time to save America from a convicted criminal

  23. You dont have to convince democrats to vote democrat you have to convince those in the middle

  24. She’s a fighter. The new breed are for the most part fighters. I am an old man and a lifelong progressive democrat. I am so glad to see this happen. We need to eliminate the moderate Republican Clinton era politicians from all leadership and offices. Bring back the new deal dems like Truman who are fighters! You can be old and still want the fight!

  25. If you’re not here to fight, then what the fuck are you doing on the battlefield?

  26. Someone should pay the media to pretend trump is a populist progressive. Then just sit back and watch the DNC run the strongest presidental campaign in human history.

  27. Speaking of fighting, I’d love to see/hear Biden’s plan to run the biggest comeback campaign in political history. It needs to be more than “run Orange Man Bad ads and scold people who question your ability while avoiding the public.”

  29. Are we going to keep pretending that things don’t look really, REALLY bad for Democrats in November right now?

  30. Copying 2024 RCP polling from another comment:

    • ⁠Arizona: Trump +4.1

    • ⁠Nevada: Trump +5.4

    • ⁠Wisconsin: Trump +2.6

    • ⁠Michigan: Trump +1.2

    • ⁠Pennsylvania: Trump +4.8

    • ⁠North Carolina: Trump +5.8

    • ⁠Georgia: Trump +4.0

    Biden has NO path to winning the electoral college. Plugging your fingers in your ears and screaming “Vote Blue no matter who!” doesn’t magically change that fact.

  31. That starts with Biden stepping down. Dems are losing in every single battleground state. We’re going to lose the Senate and House if the election were held today.

  32. These people will be eating their own words when Biden inevitably loses to Trump all because they were stubborn and couldn’t read the room.
