Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez lashes out at Democratic Party, hints at quitting politics

[Counselor706]

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), the progressive firebrand who cruised to re-election last week, suggested in a new interview that she might be on her way out of politics.

Speaking with the New York Times, Ocasio-Cortez said she might depart from politics as it becomes even more clear that her far-left progressive agenda is not welcome in the Democratic Party.

When asked if she is considering a Senate run in the next couple of years, Ocasio-Cortez said, "I genuinely don't know."

"I don't even know if I want to be in politics. You know, for real, in the first six months of my term, I didn't even know if I was going to run for re-election this year," she added. "It's the incoming. It's the stress. It's the violence. It's the lack of support from your own party. It's your own party thinking you're the enemy."

What America needs right now is a settled period of normality, we can really do without divisive extremists like her.

Care to tell that to the impeached one term president?
