    They can be a lot less coy without triggering whatever happens when they formally announce a run. They can have exploratory committees and that sort of thing.

    An AOC 2028 presidential run would be interesting but that is also when Chuck Schumer is up for re-election, giving her a chance to prmary him. I don’t have any idea of her chances either way. I think she understands that situation and will make informed choices when the time comes. I’m not exactly a fan of hers but I’ll give her some props for electoral savvy.
