I hate to say “I told you so,” but AOC very obviously should have been tapped for this position from the start. It shouldn’t have taken a 75-year-old man receiving a second cancer diagnosis for the party to see that. But at the very least, Democrats now have a second chance to do the right thing—the smart thing, the thing that people who actually want to win would do…

embrace the hate. I sure as hell do everytime some geriatric dnc cryptkeeper dribbles out another excuse as to why the party has not pushed the next generation forward.

best make sure the yunguns are put forward with the supporting collective knowledge of the dnc corpses still able to gurgle out historical advice and experience. whatever happens, those who will inherit this mess will need to consider options and make the decisions from now on.

Get the dinosaurs out of the party. Now.

I'm not sorry about it anymore. No one should be. The country is falling apart because these people have all the resources and use them to make shitty decisions to empower themselves more, despite being so old that they'll never even see the return on their greed. Vote them out. We need progressives.

That was the plan all along, make sure AOC loses. The democrat party is complicit with the evils of the current regime and they have no intention of letting anybody do anything about it.

Apparently Democrats take away is that he was too young. They are tapping an 87 year old next. https://www.axios.com/2025/04/30/eleanor-holmes-norton-oversight-aoc-connolly

AOC is going to keep capitulating to Democratic Party politics, and she's gonna keep getting shafted by it because the party structure is completely resistant to even the most minor or performative changes. Even David Hogg is getting challenged for daring to say "maybe the Democrats should do things instead of just taking up space."
