Alexandria Ocasio Cortez has moved to DC and the first thing she did once there was to join a protest in the office of Democrat leader Nancy Pelosi. The subject of the protest was climate change, but that really doesn't matter. What's important is the optics of a freshman Democrat protesting in the office of her party's leader in the House. It conveys the impression that Ocasio Cortez doesn't think all that highly of Pelosi.
There's been speculation regarding whether or not Pelosi could hold onto her leadership position. The pundits all wrinkle their brows and say she's a shoo in, but I'm not so sure. These so called experts seem to be missing just how many Democrats view Pelosi as the problem rather than the solution.
On another front today, a few reporters questioned why Pelosi is under assault from Democrat House members after she led them to victory while Chuck Schumer is not being questioned after he led Democrats in the senate to defeat. It must be sexism according to these people. So now Democrats are hurling charges of sexism at each other at the same time others are protesting fellow party members for not doing enough about Climate Change.
Maybe next week they can call each other racist or homophobic.
