Quick reminder of the past, and what 2028 probably will look like
what do you all think? I think laying it out in the context of how we are actually going to see it 2 years from now helps. I know she hasn't announced she's running yet, I seriously believe she will - and if we are all on the same page, building up the momentum early as a preemptive measure, means it will be too big to stop by the time the establishment, right wingers, insurance companies, lobbyists, the bougie class, the epstein class, the AI technobros, the crypto kingpins, etc.... all try to disrupt it.
No I do not think it's a "better idea to have AOC take chuckles' seat". For one it doesn't automatically mean she would become speaker, that's voted internally. And two, he's probably going to retire anyway and her going for his seat is SMALL potatoes compared to where we really need her - as POTUS. I've determined this talking point about replacing schumer, is a distraction, fabricated by the establishment to get AOC out of their way. It smells like an establishment tactic. It's lost potential, sitting on the senate shelf.
We are in a special moment right now - it's imperative we don't let it pass us by. If it does pass us by - we will all be here in 3 years depressed as fuck, mad that we didn't push for the best option we had.
She can 100% win.
Her 2025 financial disclosures show that she doesn't own any stock, still has $45-50k in student loan debt, doesn't own real estate, and her bank accounts, all normal. She's still working class, actually living by the values she claims to. And that's after she's been in the swamp for 8 years.
This is incredibly powerful. We have never been as close to a genuine working class president like this before. Think about all of the corruption, all the insider trading, all the dirty israel dealing, the billions in dark money... her record up against ANY other politician, absolutely destroys them.
There is no one better, and we must recognize that. There's no time like right now.
