I warn conservatives I know, and they just laugh and say that is ridiculous. It will be a rude awakening for them, similar to what Trump has been for the left these last five years.

She's honestly not a full socialist, but she is further left than Dems. This is where you're wrong. People are tired of traditional Dem and Rep politics. They are moving to further extremes.

And I don't see her getting into the same level of scandals Clinton did. I agree, however that depends how the "scandals" towards Joe Biden end up being considered. If conservatives can just make up scandals, it doesn't really matter if AOC stays out of trouble. I don't think nobody cared about Trump assaulting women due to his persuasion, republicans are just way too cult-minded and favor the party over the country, so as long as Trump is "their guy" he can (and will for all intents and purposes) do no wrong in their minds.Trump isn't really persuading anyone of anything, he's just telling them they're right. Hop103 posted... She will, once she sheds the socialism and becomes a normal Democrat. The democrats need to move more left, not right, nobody wants more of the same, they want changes because everyone knows American life as it is needs help. That's why Obama ran on change, and Trump ran on change, even if neither really accomplished a ton of positive change. <cite>Proto_Spark posted [p:946167885] in Alexandria...

But he was at such a high level of persuasion, it didn't even matter, he still became President. I think AOC could do the same. And I don't see her getting into the same level of scandals Clinton did.</quote> I agree, however that depends how the "scandals" towards Joe Biden end up being considered.

That's persuasion. Cult leaders are persuasive. Persuasion can be good or bad. You might call bad persuasion "brainwashing" or "sophistry", but it's still under the branch of persuasion. He's convincing them it's okay. He's still persuading them. It might be your instinct to want to undermine his abilities and convince yourself he's really a big dummy, but the guy did it, and he knows what he's doing as far as that goes. <cite>JimmyFraska posted [p:946168056] in Alexandria...
