competent and effective NYC Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D) is making new moves toward a possible White House bid in 2028.

We had an entire thread where only a single person listed any accomplishments by AOC and even those were paltry.

Y'all have ridiculously low standards and yet seem shocked when it's observed that you're little different than Trumpers.

LOL

Obama - successful lawyer and career in civil rights, constitutional law professor, the much maligned community "organizer."
Lincoln - laughable comparison
Garfield - such an unremarkable POTUS that you probably couldn't tell me something about him without looking it up first

Trump - most appropriate comparison
Eisenhower - LOL just LOL

Your statement is true.

But some of us have actual standards.

And given how trying these times are and the amount of work that will be needed once (or if) Trump is out of office, electing someone with little accomplishment is foolish beyond words.

In fact, it will, I'm willing to bet, swing the pendulum back to the right and we'll get someone like Trump again.

Both Hilary and Kamala had more of a record to run on and they still couldn't beat Trump, who shouldn't have even stood a chance after the mess of his first term.

Hillary was one of the most qualified POTUS candidates of the past two decades. She had the Clinton baggage, though, and played the woman card to heavily instead of running on her extensive, and often unique, experience and accomplishments.

Kamala was simply a bad candidate that the progressives tried to ram through to get a woman POTUS because they thought anyone could win against Trump. It was a colossal miscalculation by people who now think they should be taken seriously when they claim to know what's best moving forward (yet another way they're very similar to MAGA morons).

And no, her experience is not sufficient if you have any level of standards or expectations. The funny thing is people like you and clownshart see woman and go light on her because she's a woman. You condescendingly lower your expectations.

I absolutely do not lower my expectations because she is a woman, and AOC is too liberal for my taste. However, there have been MANY men in the primary with less experience than she currently has and so I will not discredit her simply for that.

I'm not "discrediting" her for entering the primary.

I'm saying she doesn't have what it will take to be POTUS and we'd be incredibly foolish to elect her to that position.

BTW would you say Pete Aguilar is a good candidate for POTUS?

That's a reality. You can preach about how you're looking down on them for not sharing your exact standards, but then you're coming across a lot like the purity ponies.

That's not what a purity pony is.

In any case, it's hilarious watching people argue for apathy and ignorance in voting without apparently realizing that that's what they're arguing for.

and is hands down the worst president in modern history.

Well, if anybody didn't think you were an idiot yet, this certainly stakes a giant flag on that territory that is unmistakable to interpret.
