I'm waiting to see what else Ocasio-Cortez does. She definitely does not stay in the House for the rest of her life. The issue is there's nowhere for her to go in New York politics. Schumer is "only" 71, is running for reelection this year, and will most likely run for reelection in 2028 and probably 2034. Does Ocasio-Cortez want to be in the House until 2034 or 2040?

Gillibrand is even younger and could plausibly serve in the Senate for the next 30 years.

I'm against FOSTA ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

AOC will wind up running a faux social justice lifestyle brand or an activist group that mostly specializes in getting herself attention (ahem, women’s march). She has no appetite for actual work and her main talent is self-promotion. I can’t see her going anywhere beyond the House in politics, and she’ll never be in leadership because most of her colleagues can’t stand her.

Man, she drives you people crazy, doesn't she.

Who are you referring to - women? Yeah, we know her type and don’t care for it. I’d hardly call that being driven crazy, but I guess this is the best rejoinder you’ve got?

She's more of a political influencer than a politician. I had high hopes for her in the beginning but she's been disappointing at every turn. I hate Twitter clout-chasers sooooo much. Can not imagine having one as president.
