    Completely unforced error for Biden to ask Congress to make them accept the deal with nothing to improvement.

      Completely unforced error by Biden, by Schumer, by AOC, by fucking Sanders...

      I remember when AOC whipped up a crowd that actively door-knocked the fucking halls of Congress over the GND. Probably the peak of her career when she put the fear of God in Pelosi and the rest. Then they yanked her collar and its been shit ever since.

        At least Sanders voted against the strike-breaking bill. That's the one point of solace here

          Knowing her, probably threats to get her off a committee she was on or a promise to have a bigger role in one. They also used methods like having a neoliberal Puerto Rican woman as some sort of mentor for her. AOC is big into identity politics so I could see that actually working.
