In Ocasio-Cortez we see what it might look like for left to retake control – to begin talking about what wewant to talk about rather than whatever Trump is spewing The answer to the question “Who’s afraid of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez?” is establishment Democrats in Congress, apparently.

In private conversations with Ocasio-Cortez over the past few months, [Representative Nydia] Velázquez counseled Ocasio-Cortez against targeting her Democratic colleagues in future elections. The two had a ‘long, long conversation’ about the dynamics of Congress and Washington, and how there shouldn’t be a ‘litmus test’ for every district. Velázquez told Ocasio-Cortez she should think twice in the future before backing primaries against her colleagues. Murphy, the first Vietnamese woman elected to Congress, represents a swing district and could lose her seat if she’s forced to move left in a primary, Velázquez said during the talk. She’s very friendly in person, chatting up fellow lawmakers and security workers in the Capitol as she’s tailed by admirers and reporters. Then they see the Ocasio-Cortez on Twitter, where she frequently snaps at critics and occasionally at fellow Democrats. Related: Standing Rock inspired Ocasio-Cortez to run.
