Well, she can either cower in fear and comply in advance, or fight to the limits of what she can do. They are coming for her either way.
I think she is what the Democrats should be. She is doing her job. TBH electing her president would restore a lot of the public image Trump lost the US.
This is the most important lesson for everyone. There is no safety in complacency. There is no peace after appeasement.
You fight today, or you die tomorrow. They might not come for you first, but they will come for you. By the time they do, who will be left to speak out?
This is absolutely the lesson we all need to learn. It is always true, in history, life, and art with such ghouls:
That doesn’t mean we can’t delay him. And his name is Voldemort, Filius. You might as well use it, he’s going to try and kill you either way. -Prof McGonagall

i think this is not true… a large portion of what the US has in reputation was stability: trump as proved that the systems in place on the US can be bent and abused in ways nobody thought possible… the only way to fix that is systemic change
4 years of AOC won’t change that the same thing can happen again at the end of her term
I’m not saying it would restore all of it, or even most of it, but being a country that can also elect an AOC would restore hope that the US is not beyond redemption.
We need politicians to push back on the fascists. If they go after AOC too aggressively it will make her a martyr to the cause and give the rest of us someone to aspire to.
If the limp Democratic opposition continues to do nothing, and we will all feel abandoned to the Red-hats, it only gives trump more power.

Don’t threaten them with a good time.
