and have kept out of it for the most part. I find that she says inflammatory things, seemingly thoughtlessly. As I don't live in her district or state and know only a little about her, I've never had much reason to delve very deeply into her world view.

I didn't like that comment nor did I agree with it. I suspect that she's got a little too full of herself and feels invicincible.

So...in your mind, the squad are not Democrats and thus unworthy of support?

My point was that there was no reason to bring anyone into it and it cheapens the praise for the Democrat you like by using her to denigrate the Democrats you hate.

And make no mistake, those four women are also Democrats.
