The left should be preparing for AOC’s presidential run in many ways. She will be the successor to Kamala Harris and represent the progressive turn for the democrats, and the attempt to fully liquidate the left AOC can be worked with, but she must be constrained by a real left. needs to exist by 2028

A lot of things I don't understand about this cast but the three biggest ones: 1. Why 2028? If Harris wins, Dems have her as candidate earliest 2032. 2. Dem elites have many more to push ahead before it comes to AOC: Buttigieg, Newsom, even Shapiro. 3. I don't know why we're still shaping everything around Dems instead of building a force completely independently. Dems CAN'T BE constrained or influenced or worked with. Fundamentally corrupt & broken organization. I'll go hyperbolically stupid but there might be more ways to push GOP left (from their existing point) than Dems lol (but I'm not suggesting that as a plan)

Oh right I do think it’s probable she serves 2 terms but I’m not sure

No but even if she doesn't serve, she's the candidate in 2028
