          She still insists on being a Democrat, despite constantly shit-talking other Dems, instead of going independent like Bernie or starting a new party. She’s always been one to yell and shout but when the time comes to actually do something, she always mysterious disappears or falls in line.

          They do vote on thousands of these per year and often rely heavily on the advice of their team (as in their own policy advisor and staff, not the Democrats) so it may have just been a bad call.

          Im not from the US but I wouldn’t throw out AOC over one bad vote. If I was her constituent I’d definitely call/email her to let her know how I felt about this issue and that it was an enormous letdown though. Gotta advocate.

Rules:

1. Be civil

Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
