Via Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
"Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.

This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.

Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.

And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too)."

@nilsskirnir @Bellison22 The “DNC” doesn’t hate members of its own party.

The enemy is Trump. Why don’t we all focus on that instead of worrying about who likes or dislikes whom among the resistance?

@mls14 @nilsskirnir @Bellison22

Nils makes a valid point.

The DNC has acted against these two on multiple occasions.

The DNC doesn't passively hate them.
They proactively undermine them.

Because the DNC is owned by the same people who own the GOP. Billionaires.

If you want to beat Trump, you need a compelling alternative.

You can't ask people to vote Dem just because they're not trump. How did that work out in 2024?

@rzeta0 @nilsskirnir @Bellison22 This is pure conjecture. And what is the point? It feels like you are intentionally trying to turn Democrats against each other. Did you vote for Harris or Trump in 2024?

@mls14 @rzeta0 @Bellison22

Golly. Almost expect a note blaming #Hillary! loss on #Bernie

Be serious.

@nilsskirnir @rzeta0 @Bellison22 I’m being a LOT more serious than people trying to foment division between AOC and the rest of the party when it’s clear this is a moment to come together.

The story linked had nothing to do with some past grievance that some older people seem to still have with the DNC. It is not “finally Bernie will take over and show those mean old Dems!”

It is a feel-good story of people joining together to fight Trump. And yet I see all the pointless division added in by these comments. To me that feels like a crappy thing to do in this moment.

Read my initial comment. All it asked for was for people to pull together, and I got so much negativity for it!

@mls14 @rzeta0 @Bellison22

You are correct regarding needing to pull together We also need a coordinated plan of attack

@nilsskirnir @mls14 @rzeta0 @Bellison22

Read in my newspaper this week:

When Obama won his first term, the Republicans were in the same kind of inner turmoil as the Democrats are now. "What did we do wrong" turning into "who's to blame" and then the Tea Party emerged.

I like Bernie and AOC, I see them as *normal*, good social-democrats, the kind we have here in Europe. Whereas in the US, "liberal" is a swear word and red scare is never far away.
