God he was right on the money in that second paragraph, eh. |
One of the reasons that it's a potential disaster that AOC, with her 'open borders' rhetoric, has become so closely associated with Sanders.
Bernie's past positions on free trade and free movement have been proven more and more to be correct over time and this puts him in an excellent position against Trump. Unless, of course, AOC confuses the message with her feel good, anti-working class politics.
