2 months before election, every shit box MSM channel:
“AOC is a Communist! She loves North Korea! She wants to let violence run rampant in NYC and give candy to pedophiles to help them catch children! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, DONT VOTE FOR HER!”
AOC has very much demonstrated over the past few years that she understands how to be a politician and not just a tankie firebrand.
So she would at least be able to answer that with something like “No. I actively condemn the human rights abuses by North Korea and <insert whatever list of pseudo-communist fascist regimes get spewed>. What I do not condemn are government programs to assist those in need and…”
Whether that would be enough? I doubt it. But it would give her a fighting chance with familes that actually understand how horrific these “communist” regimes actually were. Rather than refusing to condemn them because they had good branding like certain other American Left Wing politicians.
Which is still a lot better than Certain Other American Leftists who can’t even say “I condemn the horrors by the <blank> regime” because said regime identified as communist.
That implies they even give her the chance to talk as opposed to just having talking head asshats tell you these things about her. They wouldn’t dare interview her and accidentally expose their audience to anything positive about her.
It’s the same thing they did to Bernie, even “far left MSNBC” ran “Bernie loves Castro” stories constantly and had one chucklefuck talk about getting put to the firing squad if Bernie won…

Whether or not she had a good response it wouldn’t be broadcasted over the billionaire owned media

Sounds like the same rhetoric from a year ago when they were still trying to push Biden again.
TBF I don’t think any sane individual (or anyone with a 401k at this point) would mind having Biden again in office.
