‘Superpowers’: Dems Float AOC For President, Claim She Has ‘Best Shot Against Trump in 2024’

Socialist Rep. Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) is being floated for the presidency by Democrats who claim she is their “best shot against Trump in 2024.”

According to those pushing for the Democrat Party to get behind an AOC presidential tilt, the former bartender from Queens has “superpowers” because she is “Barack Obama if Barack Obama was an actual progressive.”

Writing in The Hill, Michael Starr Hopkins leads the cheerleading for AOC:

“When Barack Obama came out of nowhere to win his Senate seat in 2004, it almost felt preordained. As if he was the person we had been waiting for to breathe fresh air into the Democratic Party. 

“Flash forward to 2018, and the meteoric rise of a 29-year-old bartender from Queens feels eerily similar. She has been unafraid, unapologetic and unwilling to bend to the will of Washington. She is a force to be reckoned with, and in 2024 Democrats are going to need her force to reckon with Republicans.”

According to the starstruck journalist, AOC is a “movement,” an “influencer” and “photogenic.”

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) is less of a personality and more of a movement. Yes, the smart, photogenic congresswoman is the face of the rising progressive movement, but she is also the future of the Democratic Party. AOC has cultivated a following beyond politics. She’s an influencer in its purest form.

It sounds like AOC has finally found someone who actually wants to date her.

But Mr Hopkins is correct about one thing. Absolutely nobody, not even hardcore Democrats, want Biden to remain in the White House.

“A new CNN poll finds that 75 percent of Democratic and Democratic-leaning voters want the party to nominate someone other than President Biden in 2024. Should President Biden announce that he will not seek a second term, AOC would represent the bridge that he hoped to create.”

Biden needs to be removed from office ASAP. But electing AOC would only compound the disastrous far-left policies enacted by the Biden regime.
