Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s latest rant revealed one truth about the election that Democrats refuse to admit
The final sprint to Election Day in November is underway.
Polls show the race is neck and neck.
And Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s latest rant revealed one truth about the election that Democrats refuse to admit.
The election is heating up between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris
With just over 60 days left until the General Election, the political atmosphere in America is glowing white hot.
Vice President Kamala Harris received a boost in the polls when she emerged as the new nominee, but that honeymoon phase has passed.
According to the RealClearPolitics polling average, she holds a razor-thin 1.9% lead over former President Donald Trump nationally.
The race is also razor-thin in the key swing states as well.
If polls remain this tight through Election Day, a third-party candidate could be the spoiler in the race.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is worried about a wildcard
And based on Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s (D-NY) latest rant, Democrats are worried sick about Kamala losing votes to a third-party candidate.
Jill Stein is running for President on the Green Party’s ticket.
She ran in 2012 and 2016.
In 2016, Stein won roughly 30,000 votes in Wisconsin
A lot of Democrats still blame her for Hillary Clinton’s defeat in 2016 in the state.
Ocasio-Cortez recently whined about Jill Stein in a video on social media.
An Instagram user asked Ocasio-Cortez how to inform their friends who support Jill Stein that “they are wasting their time and effort.”
She answered the question on a live Instagram video.
And in doing so, she revealed how terrified of losing votes to a third-party candidate the Democrats truly are.
“This is a little spicy, but I have thoughts,” Ocasio-Cortez began.
She then torched Green Party Presidential candidate Jill Stein.
“If you run for years and years and years and years and years in a row, and your party has not grown and you don’t add City Council seats and you don’t add down-ballot candidates and you don’t add state electeds, that’s bad leadership,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “And that to me is what’s upsetting.”
Ocasio-Cortez even called it “predatory” for Stein to seek the Oval Office.
“Because if you have been your party’s nominee for twelve years in a row and you cannot grow your movement, pretty much at all, and can’t pursue any successful strategy and all you do is show up once every four years to speak to people who are justifiably pissed off, but you’re just showing up once every four years to do that, you’re not serious,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “To me, it does not read as authentic, it reads as predatory.”

But Jill Stein is a fighter and she dropped the hammer on Ocasio-Cortez.
“I just wanted to thank AOC/Pelosi so very much for her very authentic concern about Green power, clearly AOC is the attack dog du jour and the Democrats are running scared, and they should be!” Stein said in a response video.
She then blasted Ocasio-Cortez and the Democrats for supporting Israel’s war in Gaza.
“Who wants to support a genocide?” Stein asked. “Who wants to vote for a genocide?”

Ocasio-Cortez can complain and moan all she wants about Jill Stein’s campaign.
But she isn’t going to allow Ocasio-Cortez to pressure her to step aside.
And this is a problem that will only grow as Election Day inches closer.
