Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: 'I think that we have a very real risk of losing the presidency to Donald Trump if we do not have a presidential candidate that is fighting for true transformational change in the lives of working people in the United States'

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez isn't endorsing anyone for president now, saying on ABC's"This Week" that"It's possible that I'll endorse later on perhaps, you know, I do not see myself endorsing anytime soon."

More broadly of the Democratic field, she said,"I do think that the field is too large. I do believe that having a competitive primary is healthy and that it’s good, but we have so many Senate seats to take and the fact that we aren't discussing that more -- even if we win the presidency and we don't win the Senate -- we are not going to be able to get a robust agenda passed in the way that we envision it.

However, when asked about allegations of inappropriate touching and comments by Biden, Ocasio-Cortez said,"I do think that there may be some discomfort," among voters, citing recent comments where Biden told a 13-year-old girl that her brothers need to watch out for her."I think there are some things with female voters that it's just not quite locked down."

AOC.. do you ever stop and think about that which you ate saying? At this point the are few words that can Express your ignorance!

Won't happen as long as Democrats have anti-American globalistic agenda

Church!

Preach!

We don’t want a transformation or anything that you have to offer! We do not want to be a Socialist Country! We want a free Democracy, open markets, we the people want to be free from government intrusion into our lives! Less government, and stop pushing your green agenda on us!

Aka socialist

Did she suddenly receive a brain cell or?

That's true, but the real problem is how that candidate expresses that stance while interweaving it with what a massive part of the population sees as an entertainment venue instead of an important choice for leadership.

Democrats will lose because they are divided.... 20 democratic presidential candidates. That happens in 3rd world and developing countries to divide the ‘democrats’ so ‘republicans’ can win. Didn’t BSanders effect do the same in 2016 to democrats?

Learn about the moderates who win the House back.

Lower taxes Alexandria, high taxation without representation is not fair!!! Try as a citizen to communicate with a politician, virtually IMPOSSIBLE, IMPOSSIBLE..where is the representation...only on a piece of paper written over 200 yrs ago!

AOC 'Like Pocahontas is the best'

Not voting for someone like Bernie. He’s the epitome of someone who rants against the “system” as he self-servingly uses it, contributing nothing. See Democratic Party for reference.

That's because your too busy asking for a raise even though you make 150K a year and only work 4 days a week AOC, you silly, socialist, Cuban bar tender smh 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂

🤣🤣🤣🤣

I like her but this all or nothing approach just doesn’t sit well with me. Governing is all about compromise.

Working people have been cut wages by supply side economics.....can’t have medical for all or any other progressive idea until can control the number on population. Can’t have give sways for all the America’s can’t not won’t pay for that agenda. Secure the border!

She’s absolutely right!

There's the problem. Political partys. The us vs them attitude. We are one country. We need our elected officials working together to solve our collective problems. Not bickering like children over who started it!

Stupid votes vote for dumb people like her who have no idea how business in America really works.

Agreed. One of the candidates needs to get out as a full-blown communist. That will help separate them from the rest of the meandering socialists and make it clear to the American public where the Democrat Party truly stands.

Fairy tales and moonbeams.

Mine vcd was changed. When trump fixed the economy.

a) You DONT have a Worthwhile presidential candidate. ( they,re ALL yaihoo,s) b) you are going to lose to President Donald Trump. (by an ugly landslide. )

AOC looks so crazy I get a chill down my spine when I see her speak. I'm afraid millions could die before her eyes and they would stay just as wide with that creepy smile and psychotic self-assurance/detachment from reality.

Dems = fuked. America = great. Again.

Cheers to President Donald Trump's very much focus on Transformation, he does it unrelentingly with credibility n Success Stories. Perhaps. right Democrat candidate be absolutely credible in true transformation mission. chedetofficial FrancisYeoh333 POTUS realDonaldTrump

Bless her heart, I think she may finally be onto something huge. . . . .

Trump deserves 4 yrs on the house since everyone spewed lies for his first term. Every major news group should issue apologies to not only him but ALL OF AMERICA POTUS realDonaldTrump

I’m one of those working people and I’m doing pretty damn good. Most of us are. It’s the non workers that need transitional change and it’s called working. It’s really not that complicated.

POTUS LIVES ON AMERICA.

There's nothing easy our funny about running for the presidency, it will not come easy for CORTEZ.

This is why Biden is a bad idea.

Much to learn she still has!

Lowest unemployment for minorities Ever

The harder u work the more opportunity there is in life !

Well that means Trump should keep on working.😂😂😁😂

CORTEZ IS OFF TRACK , IVANKA TRUMP HAS A MOVEMENT ON EMPOWERMENT FOR WOMEN, AND IS VERY SUCCESSFUL IN THE (WORLDS EYE) CORTEZ DOESN'T WANT TO BRING THE SUCCESS OUR PRESIDENT TO THE SURFACE AMERICA.

Maybe your chances of winning would be increased if you got behaind a candidate - you’ve got a lot to choose from - rather than making statements like this

realDonaldTrump AOC GOPChairwoman KellyannePolls RealCandaceO EndChildSacrifices DefeatCommunism There is a war for control of our minds. The communist dumbing down of America has bern very successful.

She's full of crap period America.

You can't 'lose' something you don't have

I think you should go back to waiting on tables because you have no experience, you have had zero success as a political representative, what have you done for the people? What successes have you accomplished? Why are we listening to this woman who has no track record

That’s right reverse everything. Highest black and Latino unemployment in decades is were u start. Then work on getting the new manufacturing sector shipped back to China. For the final act food stamps for all

What does she know about “real Americans”? She lives in her bubble in Queens and DC.

One on One debate with POTUS will not be a successful day for Cortez.

Our risk of losing goes up if we campaign like neo-liberals, like AOC and Omar.

REP. ALEXANDRIA OCASIO WILL NOT KNOW WHAT OUR COUNTRY NEEDS, AND DOESN'T NEED AMERICA, TRUMP 2020 PEOPLE...

Ya’ll losing regardless sweetheart

Change - Jan Theuninck, 2016

Duh.

Bwahaha what she means is someone with a socialist agenda - no one wants what you’re selling you Socialist clown AOC

Ocasio-Cortez: Impeachment is not about electionsRep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Sunday repeated her call for impeaching Trump, saying that the matter transcends party lines and that progressives were getting frustrated with the lack of motion on the issue You can resist Trump on the house floor in 2019 and resist him at the polls in 2020. We don’t have to pick one Maybe you can convince Ted Cruz to support impeachment. So you don't think that the reasons that she is calling for impeachment is important? Isn't that all that's important and everything else that you report it is completely irrelevant?
