        In some alternate universe she enthusiastically endorses Bernie, drops, and gets Bernie's base for a run in 2024. She's much younger than Sanders and Sander's base has nowhere else to go. Instead she triangulated herself into fucking oblivion.

          how will this lisa simpson mf channel that same populist energy??? she's a policy nerd who has an interest in banking regulation. when she says she's a capitalist, believe her. Sometimes I feel sympathy for her, but in the end, how is she any different than any other democrat?

            Where is the base going? Jay Inslee? AOC is 17 years old and half this sub calls her a radlib at least twice a day. You can all handwave off electoralism all you want but we're all gonna vote for someone in a primary. It isn't going to be Warren now cause she's a moron but if she had said the right things it might have been, was my point.

              I see what you mean. I was triggered when I saw her name being used in a positive context on here. your alternative reality might have been nice, but I suppose it would have been nothing more than an illusion of progress.

              the rat's probably gonna make a serious run in 2024...shit looks bleak.

      Yes, it was, because ultimately, she's still a decamillionaire with a Senate seat who gets to see her political desires ("sensible" Capitalism) come to fruition.
