This is very true! My district has voted Red for almost 50 years in a row but we have many of us who go support leftist causes, we’re still here and trying, don’t give up on us!!
AOC and Bernies rallies made me realize just how many there were

They actually came and rallied near me! Not in my district exactly, but close enough that many of us organised to go together (unfortunately I was out of town that week 😭)

Thats a bummer. But those rallies made me go from thinking AOC would get killed in the 2028 election if she ran, to now thinking she might have a great shot if she chooses to run. And i hope so bc even just as a rep she has so much influence

Me too! I don’t quite think she’s there just yet, I think the Establishment Democrats are still strong and will rally a resistance against her, but she’s closer than ever, and if enough changes before 2028, she might have a real shot

At the very least, I truly believe our generation will be the one to finally deal with everything wrong with the country and the world the best we can. Or at least put people like her in power that will

I don’t know that I believe we’ll be the generation to do it, but I think we have the best shot. I stay cautiously optimistic
