First step to accomplishments worthy of POTUS.

No such step exists.

It's amazing you suddenly demand this notion of "accomplishment" when AOC's name is brought up but never in the past.

What were Biden's accomplishments? Existing? Being a career politician? What exactly did Biden accomplish?

You know, like being a party leader and having a significant record of success behind you like Pelosi had.

Thanks for finally admitting the government doesn't work like a business.

Pelosi liked being in the HOR and she did what she wanted there.

Obama and Clinton never served in the House of Representatives and went straight to the Senate.

Obama didn't accomplish anything before becoming president.

It's just an analogy. I think we can all agree running a country like a business is a bad idea. Point is what one does with the position they've obtained is more critical than obtaining it. I didn't think that was a hard concept to grasp, but I guess it is/was.

Your analogy sucked. Trump is running America like a business.

The government isn't a business. It's a place where people go with ideas on how to make America better.

Which is exactly what AOC is doing.

*sigh* intentionally obtuse? I know it's not a ladder and there's no requirement for that sequence.

And yet you keep demanding for there to be one.

Make up your mind, stupid.

However, it is typically seen as an upgrade to go from HoR to the Senate. If you're not aware of that, just admit it. We won't make fun of you too much.

And look here you are again, putting it in a sequence.

I'd say Nancy Pelosi has been a much more powerful force in politics than most senators have been.

But clearly, Senator is a better title. Because you think the government is a business.

The only thing shocking is that someone simping so hard for a politician only has that childishly stupid argument to make.

You haven't even made an argument.

You personally don't see anything AOC has done as a worthy accomplishment.

But the majority of the Democrats disagree with you

And what's your reasoning?

Her record (or lack there of) in legislative accomplishments and committee assignments and leadership. The latter showing you just how NOT influential she is within her own part.

She's accomplished more in her short time in the House of Representatives than most politicians who go into the House of Representatives.

Her message gets attention in the Democratic Party. People resonate with her ideas. She is the future of the party.

Otherwise. The party doesn't stand for anything. Much like Biden didn't stand for anything.

Not vague at all and you have to be beyond stupid to think I haven't made it quite clear what accomplishments or positions she needs to have under her belt to be considered qualified.

You never made anything clear. You literally had zero requirements for people who are presidential candidates in the past.

You don't even know what you want out of politician. If you're not looking for a progressive Democrat, what are you looking for? Another Biden?

You're unwilling to actually say what accomplishments you seek in a politician because you know you don't have any.

Just like you didn't have any for Biden, Harris, or Obama

Cool hyperbole. Still not an affirmative argument.

What's hyperbole? The fact you can't list what accomplishments you're looking for in your political candidates? Or the fact that most politicians you support don't have any accomplishments to speak of?


More stawmen. Just STFU already. Duhhhhh BrAiNwAsHeDzZ!!!

Brilliant response. About as intelligent as anything you've posted.

No, dumba&&, it's not. It's just the first step.

First step to what?

Nancy Pelosi spent her entire political career in the House of Representatives.

Did she miss out on the second step?

Talk about FOMO.

What's worthy of higher office is what you do with it. In what world is a promotion given simply for having your current job?

You're comparing the government to a business.

They're not the same.

If they were, Trump wouldn't be president of the United States

He wouldn't have been qualified to apply.

Which honestly would've been fantastic for everyone. But, again, that's not how the government works.

it is a step up to go from HoR to the Senate

No, it's not. It's not a ladder. You don't have to be in the House of Representatives before you go to the Senate. Do you understand how people become politicians?

It's possible you don't, considering you were shocked that our elections are popularity contests.

you're arguing an unwinnable argument in any sphere that adults dominate.

There is no argument being had. You're wrong. I'm just enjoying watching you make stupid excuses as to why one of the most popular, influential Democrats aren't qualified to be president of the United States.

And what's your reasoning?

She hasn't "accomplished enough". A vague bar you can't even qualify. What's "enough of an accomplishment" for you?

Which one of our politicians is a scholar or a scientist or mathematician or an engineer? Do they have to cure cancer before they can become president of the United States?

Face it you've been brainwashed to hate progressivism. Because your ideal political candidate would rule through stagnation. Like Biden did.

He didn't even try to overturn any of Trumps policies. He simply managed the country for four years and then handed it back to Trump ...

Biden was a good choice in 2020.

Oh, he was such a good choice! He did absolutely nothing and left America open to Trump taking over and -------- all over it.

I'm so proud of the America we live in thanks to Biden.

If I remember correctly, didn't you claim you were leaving the country?

God Biden did such a good job!

Thanks for continuously pointing out how ridiculous your opinion is.

Progressives are a millstone around societies neck

Without progressives this country would be nothing.

Blacks would still be slaves. Only white landowning men would be able to vote. FDR wouldn't have passed the new deal. There'd be no such thing as Medicare Or weekends Or any of the other countless freedoms you take for granted because progressives have fought for them throughout history.

I'm glad you keep illustrating how irrational your hate towards progressivism is.

I'm not qualified for POTUS either.
