About the so called feud in the Democratic House

I refuse to take sides because I trust that Pelosi knows her politics and has our back, but I have come to believe everything Ocasio-Cortez says because so far she always tells the truth. I trust both of them.

They both work for us and we can respect them for that. Pelosi has the Democrats in the House behind her but the Group of young progressive women have me and every Progressive behind them. They were deliberately elected by people who want positive change.

Pelosi is wrong to dismiss them as only 5 people. They are duly elected by their constituents, just like she is. Only there are more people in five Democratic districts than in one.

I wish they would feud behind closed doors and come to a consensus that we, their electorate, want to live with.

Destroy the Democratic Party to serve their masters so we have to pay attention.

It isn’t the first time.

I understand Nancy's role is to make big decisions about the best path for 2020 but I also think AOC et al from very liberal districts pulling debate to the left is good for democrats. The dumbass tea party from Alabama Kentucky and Mississipi etc. sure made a significant impact on the middle of the spectrum during the Obama years.

And I think the progressive support for them is pretty strong.

I think a hard push to the left is actually needed right now. This is not a moderate time in our national history.
