    Maybe, maybe not. Looking at the answers from her “AOC and Trump” voter cross-section, it seems like you just need to run someone who’s “genuine.” Both of them are seen as genuine or real (whether that’s true or not, it doesn’t matter).

    Populism can cut both ways and AOC might be just the ticket we need.

      That was my primary complaint about Harris, she had the same plastic, fake insincerity Clinton did.

      I mean, I voted for her ANYWAY because the alternative is just… 🤢🤮
