FB, I think the Democratic party for sure will split, lefties to the far left, the socialists, communists, the violent Antifa punks, pink hatters, eco nuts, perpetual welfare crowd will be one party, the "Progressive Democrats". And I think the classic, more conservative, blue collar, and any Blue Dogs left will go to the middle. The Republicans can't get their act together and never really could, always too fractionated to be of any consequence. Hopefully the Libertarians can get their act together, scoop up the Blue Dog dems and the more liberal Republicans and become an organized force for personal liberty, fiscal conservatism, less taxation, less government, and less policing of the rest of the world (keeping a kick arse military in place of course).
And oh, looks like she wants to be POTUS too....! She is so naive..... Hopefully age will bring her wisdom.

Insurgent Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wants to take her budding political career all the way to The White House, her mother told The Post on Wednesday.
“Her aspiration is to be the president,” Blanca Ocasio-Cortez, 55, said at the candidate’s childhood home in the Bronx.
“She has been thinking about politics since she was a teenager. She would read historical and political books old and new. She would engage in political discussions passionately.”
Blanca, a secretary for a school in Florida, spent a few days campaigning with her daughter. She said Ocasio-Cortez’s upset victory over Congressman Joe Crowley was like “fighting Goliath.”
“It’s just incredible,” the proud mom said. “I believe she would do it but so soon — it was shocking.”
Blanca discussed how the family struggled to make ends meet and explained her 28-year-old daughter’s appeal as a candidate.
“She is fighting for our community,” Blanca said. “She is fighting for the working class. She is fighting for immigrants.
“We can relate to that. We are working class. We did struggle. We know what struggle means.”
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a favorite to beat Republican candidate Anthony Pappas in November.
