23. "She is already their "boogie woman" and a democrat has given them a sound bite to use against her"
Thu Oct 30, 2025, 08:54 AM
Oct 30

No "sound bite" that they have hurled at her since she first took off in January 2019, has made any difference.

She has only grown stronger and more respected over those ensuing years and there is nothing they can spout that will change that.

That is why she is feared.

They took down Cory Bush, Katy Porter, and Jamaal Bowman but she is still there. They are determined to take out Jasmine Crockett by trying to draw her seat out of existence. But AOC is still there.

Embrace the mindset here.

It's just like how DU had a ridiculous freak-out over the term "woke". We need to go dark and attack their perceived weaknesses.
