In fact AOC is intelligent and forthright, and has been a strong player for Dems in Congress.Pelosi needs to consider the future, not just of herself but the Party. Americans are getting tired of the same old corrupt bullshit, the 'scratch my back and I'll scratch yours,' and AOC is among those Progressives people elected because they want change.Change is coming, and the old guard can change or get pushed aside. A lot of us are tired of Pelosi's stonewalling, especially when it comes to impeachment.
