Guess she should have just gotten back in her place and STFU?
Since when did the entire country love someone and when did you first begin to claim speaking for the entire country?She doesn’t need to be loved by a majority of her party as she’s nipping at their heels. How is it child like to take on and beat a 20+ year incumbent in a primary, tell Bezos to fuck off and stand up for her constituents (never mind Bezo’s obscene wealth and resources-he doesn’t need charity tax breaks/credits), stand up to a repub who called her a fucking bitch and continues to work for her predominantly minority, blue collar, lower class constituency? In addition to being concerned with climate change, gun violence and lack of affordable health care for tens of millions of Americans? If that’s “child like behavior” send me to Romper Room. Did I mention she worked as a bartender?
Regarding Bezos and Amazon, he owns all of 4% of the company. It's a publicly traded company.
Do you speak for all X’ers regarding their love, or not, for AOC?The point is that you missed a generation when discussing Kamala and AOC.Point on Bezos is that he has 4% of the vote. I’m also a shareholder and would want Amazon to locate and negotiate the best possible deal. That’s my expectation as a fractional owner.
So if Bezos sold some of his 54 million shares to raise the $250 million to relocate or open a regional headquarters to, pick your city, you, as a fellow fractional share holder, would lose out how?Remember when $15 an hour was going to bankrupt companies and small businesses and lead to rising unemployment?
And congratulations on your hard fought campaign victory. Now, go take a shower.No need to rehash the Amazon debate as I’m pretty sure we both know where the other stands.
It's the same market system as when you want to buy a new car. Do you simply pay MSRP or do you shop around for the best deal? Lowest cost? Best Financing? Maybe maintenance deal thrown in? Heck even car washes.
It's just fundamentally you don't believe people should have over an amount of $. What is that limit for you? It's not a bad belief at all, especially depending on the level. I think the majority of people likely have a number that starts to seem ridiculous.
Sports owners get stadiums built for them all the time. Is it absurd? Sure is.
That doesn't mean that you still can't do good things for a community.0 -

Yes, it is hard work to stay engaged. It is hard work to win elections, pass legislation, make progress. Quitting just because you don't get your way every time as fast as you want it . . .is exactly why you don't get what you want.0 -
Halifax2TheMax said:what dreams said:Old Joey and the DNC are doing their damnest to win back the working class white voters who abandoned the party and drifted to the Republicans. That's always been Biden's thing -- championing the dignity of work. Joy Reid said something to that effect last night, and it was an interesting observation. She said that he ran the danger after South Carolina of narrowing his demographic, that picking Harris as his VP has energized the base (black women) so he could focus on white working class people, the thing he's good at. She, a black woman, praised that strategy. I also think it's brilliant.
We are not going to win this election if we don't bring back at least some of those people. And however horrible it seems to her supporters, AOC will not help us win the white working class with the way she publicly operates. She's great in the Bronx, NY. Good on her for being what her constituents need in one borough. Michigan, PA, Wisconsin? Arizona, Colorado, Georgia? She doesn't serve that constituency. To them, she's just a media celebrity and her brand does not work in large parts of this country.
The reality is that people, in general, are motivated by fear. When you've got someone saying, in general, like I was told just here, "too bad you're a dinosaur, we don't care about what you value or how you operate, get used to it" -- you will never win those people. And in fact, if the left succeeds in taking over the party *in this manner,* you will lose more people like me who want the same things but are tired of being steamrolled and disrespected for what we contribute to this country. No, I will never vote for a right wing nut Republican. But I could easily see myself not voting at all if someone like AOC became the leader of the Democratic party.
Really, if AOC wants to see her future, she has nobody better than Hillary Clinton as a model. Excoriated her entire public life because people didn't like her.Halifax2TheMax said:what dreams said:Old Joey and the DNC are doing their damnest to win back the working class white voters who abandoned the party and drifted to the Republicans.

Unfortunately right now, we have a generation of adults who don't want to stop being children and who don't give two damns about the old people who came before them (disgusting). The fact that they coined the word "adulting" as a pejorative says it all.

You don't have to "love her" to figure this out.
This is pretty easy stuff to understand. She doesn't even have to try.
Comparing her to Trump is just complete nonsense and makes people look even more foolish, but by all means, continue on, it's only going to make her a bigger deal and more formidable.
One of her main advantages so far is people keep underestimating her, to their detriment.
I haven't followed this particular issue at all, but I think her star power has led her to mistakes. In particular the coup attempt against Nancy and the Amazon issue.AOC’s Grilling of Michael Cohen Was What Led to NY AG’s Fraud Case Against Trump Businesses, Eric Trump
“Attorney General James opened an investigation into Donald Trump and the Trump Organization in 2019, after Trump’s former lawyer, Michael Cohen, testified before Congress that Trump’s annual financial statements inflated the values of Trump’s assets to obtain favorable terms for loans and insurance coverage, while also deflating the value of other assets to reduce real estate taxes.”

I started this thread so we could discuss and explore her ideals further. Now I don't agree with everything she says but it's a start in the right direction.0 -
How can anyone look at the election results and claim the country is getting more and more progressive? The evidence is simply not there.
Go ahead, though, and replace Pelosi with someone to her left at this moment in time. We'll see how that works for us. Sure.0 -
