There goes your party!!!

The left side of her conference, run by the so-called “Squad” of socialist Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), and Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) is ascendant as Pelosi’s top deputies–several committee chairs–face primary challenges similar to one Ocasio-Cortez used to wipe out longtime Pelosi ally, former Rep. Joseph Crowley (D-NY) on her path to power.
In fact, at least seven of Pelosi’s top confidantes–committee chairs–potentiallly face the same fate as Crowley, as primary challengers have announced campaigns against them.
One powerful Pelosi deputy who faces a primary, Rep. Nita Lowey (D-NY)–the chairwoman of the House Appropriations Committee–has not faced an internal party challenge since 1988.

Crowley was on track to be the next speaker ... but they got complacent and didn’t even give a half-assed attempt to run a primary campaign. They assumed AOC was just a petulant child who should just be ignored - which she is, but so are the majority of the 2%!!! of the people that showed up to vote in that district’s primary.
That’s why we now have a bartender as the face of the #resistance.
Democrats fricked up bad letting her like into their ranks; now they have to appease that faction.

Any one on the right that thinks the Squad is not dangerous is fooling themselves.
The "liberals" in the DEM party, voters and office holders, are too late. That party will be ran by these types of socialists within 10 years.
Just look at what they are about to elect to be their candidate and at SOME POINT, the GOP will make a mistake and you will have an AOC or Omar in the WH.
The right laughs, the left stopped thinking and the old guard let their guard down.

Omar isn’t eligible to serve as POTUS.

There are more than 200 democrat housemembers who are interchangeable with her who are.

They are looking for a revolution without firing a shot.

Serves Pelosi right for laying in the dirt with them. Now the apprentice will become the master. They didn’t play their hand well by overlooking these crazies.

The only thing that says: “don’t take me seriously” louder than a pink vagina hat, is a group of grown, professional women referring to themselves as “the Squad.”

Thinking of making my first campaign contributions to Democrats.
What do y’all baws think? Strategic brilliance, or fiscal insanity?

Well, from the Democratic Socialists' view they have to be encouraged by what they see. They only have a handful of their freaks in Congress and yet they have almost every Democratic candidate for POTUS dancing to their music.
Now, in 2020 there could be a loud message of rejection, but I don't think they are really capable of hearing it.
Even if the current crop of useful idiots are ousted it wont matted much to them if they get replacements.
They are going to have to be resoundly defeated across the board or they will see it as one step back, two steps forward.

The only way this happens is if socialism is normalized and a majority of Americans support it. We’re a long ways from that.
