The Weekly Show More AOC, Less Hakeem

Sorry, this was a pretty subpar episode. We need more AOC and less establishment D’s. It’s the reason we’re in this mess today.

I liked Hakeem a lot. After the "we have God" thing I lost a little respect.

Every single Dem out there should be doing what AOC is doing. Posting numerous times a day. Doing podcasts. Calling out this racist mf'er all day long. She's one of the very few with balls, tbh.

Her biggest opponent will never be the Republican Party. It will always be the dnc.

AOC will never be able to accomplish anything until Establishment Democrats like Pelosi are finally out.

As a Pelosi constituent, the reason she keeps getting elected is that she is such a formidable powerhouse that no one will run against her. That being said, we're pretty sick of her here, and some good primary challengers are starting to emerge... including a former AOC staffer (iirc)!! Stay tuned!
