AOC vs. DNC: Ocasio-Cortez Threatens To Quit Politics, Slams "Hostile" Dems For Not Being Progressive Enough

Just hours after the mainstream media has anointed Joe Biden as President-Elect, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez seems to be having some type of meltdown. With Trump on his way out of office, AOC has turned her ire against a new cause: Democrats that aren't moving far enough to the left.

Perhaps indifferent about the fact that the Presidential election seems to have swung in her favor since there was no "blue wave", AOC said this weekend that Democrats who lost House seats "relied too heavily on outdated Democratic National Committee campaign tactics," according to Fox News.

She called those who lost seats "sitting ducks" and refuted the claim that some Democrats thought the ideas of defunding the police and the Green New Deal cost moderates their seats; and made the Presidential race extremely close.

AOC told the New York Times in an interview: “Our party isn’t even online, not in a real way that exhibits competence. And so, yeah, they were vulnerable to these messages, because they weren’t even on the mediums where these messages were most potent. Sure, you can point to the message, but they were also sitting ducks. They were sitting ducks.”

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is angry that the DNC is hostile to Communists/Marxists. 

“I need my colleagues to understand that we are not the enemy. And that their base is not the enemy. That the Movement for Black Lives is not the enemy, that "Medicare-for-all" is not the enemy. This isn’t even just about winning an argument. It’s that if they keep going after the wrong thing, I mean, they’re just setting up their own obsolescence,” she said.

Here we go. Joe hasn't even been inaugurated yet and he's already not socialist enough

AOC also told the New York Times she could consider quitting politics if Democrats continue to be "hostile" toward progressive causes. And, by that, we're sure she means Marxist causes.

She also "might quit politics," according to The Independent. She stated: “I genuinely don’t know. I don’t even know if I want to be in politics. You know, for real, in the first six months of my term, I didn’t even know if I was going to run for re-election this year.”

Then quit. No one is forcing you to stay.

I believe this is what's called an idle threat.

The DNC would love that.  Her district is as Blue as the Mongolian sky, the DNC would replace her as easily as a light bulb with no risk of the District flipping, and she'd be out of their hair.

Something tells me AOC's ***** hurts.

Seriously? She has found a job with great pay and she doesn't have to produce any results, just run her mouth like Bernie has done.

Yep... Though I’m more inclined to call this a tantrum to get what she wants.

She is just another self centered, stupid scrunt.
