44. I love AOC and her performance was spectacular to behold.

I’m curious what her numbers would have looked like if her opponent wasn’t (until registering as a Democrat to try to unseat AOC) an ultra right wing conservative Republican who advocated eliminating Medicare and social security.

The lengths that cons will go to in order to silence a woman of color who DARES speak truth to power... they never cease to amaze me.
