AOC is a bit too liberal for my taste and her tax plan would probably scare the shit out of me, but she at least acts like an adult and at this point, and sadly enough, that is actually considered an important attribute to me in a candidate after the MAGA retard show that we have to temporary live through for another few years.
Realistically I don't see how she will be a viable presidential candidate but who the fuck knows what will happen in the future in bizarro world. I certainly do agree that with the way this country is changing that she will certainly become more powerful with time because she is no longer just a loudmouth sideshow IMO.

Excellent points.
While I can’t see her as President at this time, I could see her as Speaker of the House, or if she supplants Schumer, as Senate Majority Leader.
After Mike Johnson, and Mitch McConnell, she would be a vocal asset, unafraid of standing up to whoever the President is, as opposed to being supplicant bootlickers like the GOP hacks are.
In a lot of ways, being Speaker or Senate Leader can be as powerful as being President, if the holders are not terrified by the President.
Remember Tip O’Neill? Presidents catered to him.
The more MAGAtards attack AOC with sexual and competence innuendo, and question her common sense, then you can see how she is rising. MAGA is making her well known. And more formidable every day.
Because she has the courage of her convictions, she can change as the political situation morphs, and still hold her core values.
She also is not afraid to tell MAGAtards to fuck off, in a professional way.
