"US debt ceiling: Hakeem Jeffries urges Democrats to vote for bill as AOC says she wonβt" β UK Guardian.
And the above headline from the Guardian is an example of what I mean. Hakeem Jeffries is a serious legislator who cares about his constituents and though he is not happy with the bill he knows the devastation a default would cause.
AOC is willing to risk default because it's better to look pure than put your constituents first. We need to remember who voted no risking default
Oh, honestly, AOC is just Chip Roy, making better policy choices.

She's good for upsetting people who need to be even more upset than they chronically are, but not much else, really.
The folks in the Bronx seem to be enjoying the second-hand notoriety, that's fine.
