AOC to Scared Dem Establishment: We’re Not Pulling Party Left, but Bringing It “Home”

Having control of the media, academia, and entertainment, the Left has long been effective at giving the radical and new (or previously rejected) status-quo status. Enter Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.). Reacting to liberal establishment fears that her set’s socialist agitation is pulling the party too far left, she has claimed that it’s actually just a case of returning to Democrats’ historic roots.

Ocasio-Cortez made the comments while stumping for presidential contender and fellow socialist Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) this weekend in Coralville, Iowa. Addressing “critics who say that candidates like Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Sanders are moving the Democrat Party ‘too far left’ with their proposals for “free” college, Medicare for All, and multitrillion-dollar climate change proposals,” reports Breitbart, Ocasio-Cortez responded: “When people try to accuse us of going too far left — we’re not pushing the party left. We are bringing the party home.”

“Are you all ready for a revolution?” she continued, to the blare of Spanish rap lyrics. “I sure am.”
