    I hope the Democrats can figure out before the last minute that she’s a really viable candidate for President.

      Most D’s are captured by most of the same corporations and oligarchs as the R’s. They will never allow a working class movement. Only corporate-whore lite.

        If so, they are in for hard wake-up call. Most corporations/oligarchs are rapidly shifting their allegiance to Trump. Those sweet donations will stop flowing to Dems.

          Perhaps this is one of the reasons why the Dems are also shifting right: to capture back corporate donors, instead of listening to the wants and needs of their base.

        I mean AOC might become president, that isn’t gonna magically get progressive policies passed. You still need 218 US congressional districts to also elect progressives.
