AOC Urges Democrats Not to Take Biden’s Republican Backers Seriously
https://www.breitbart.com/2020-election/2020/11/07/aoc-urges-democrats-not-to-take-bidens-republican-backers-seriously/Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) is urging Democrats to not take “seriously” the roles that some Republicans, including former Gov. John Kasich (R-OH), played in elevating Joe Biden to the White House.
Ocasio Cortez, who has long shown a distaste for moderates in both parties, took to social media on Saturday to rebuke Kasich for suggesting earlier in the day that progressives had nearly cost Biden the election.
“John Kasich, who did not deliver Ohio to Dems, is saying folks like [Ilhan Omar], who did deliver Minnesota, are the problem,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “Please don’t take these people seriously and go back to celebrating and building power.”
The Republicans who supported Joe Biden are not welcomed by the Democrats, particularly the far left like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
Although Kasich did not mention Omar by name, his attacks on the “far-left” and progressives supporting the defunding of police, caught the Minnesota Democrat’s attention as soon as they begin circulating on social media.
“The Democratic base run up the numbers in urban areas, with record voter registration following the murder of George Floyd,” Omar said in response to the former governor’s criticism. “The far-left delivered with record turnout, tell me again how Biden did in Ohio?
“Stop taking this man seriously, he did lose to Trump after all,” the congresswoman added.
