      He’s a Independent that caucus with the Democratic Party. But, my point is that there’s two wings of the Democratic Party. It’s the Bernie wing of the Democratic Party that is to be supported mainly. That wing won’t be a relevant party if it was a third party, the GOP needs to die before that can happen.

        If the party is shoving us to the side and only paying lip service to us and carting us out when it is time to vote, then are we really part of the party at all?

          The thing is even intraparty feuds are resolved via compromises to minority wing. So yes, AOC wing of the Democratic Party do have some level of influences toward the Democratic Party.
