Democrat Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY-14) claimed in a video on The Big Money Show on FOX Business that she could win a presidential election against Vice President JD Vance in 2028.
Ocasio-Cortez said, “Listen, these polls like three years out, yeah, they are what they are.”
Once her discussion with the reporter was complete, she would walk to her car, saying she would stomp him in the 2028 election cycle.
This response to the reporter she gave on the 2028 election polls led to a discussion amongst the panel on the Big Money Show, consisting of Larry Kudlow, Taylor Riggs, Dagen McDowell, Brian Bernberg, and Jackie DeAngelis.
“Yep, I think that she was actually being funny and trying to give people the benefit of the doubt, and I don’t think she is taking this seriously, and I don’t think anybody else is either.”, DeAngelis said
DeAngelis followed up by saying she thinks the Democrats are caught in a problematic cycle of running the same failed candidates over and over again.
“She does not have national mass appeal, while she would appeal in New York City, for example, but that’s about it, and I really think they are thinking of running Kamala, again, which is why she has been out there the way she has been out there,” DeAngelis said
Taylor Riggs followed up on DeAngelis’s statement by telling fellow panelist Larry Kudlow that she thought the Democrats were trying to court younger generations with specific tactics, such as making Democratic Socialism seem sexy.
“I agree, by the way, and I think there will be a battle in the Democratic Party between the left and the far left.”, Kudlow said
Kudlow thought that former Vice President Kamala Harris would represent the left, while Ocasio-Cortez would represent the far left.
“I think AOC is a great politician and a great communicator, and I would be wary of her because the other side of me says hold on a second, because President Donald Trump’s policies, which are based on free market capitalism, are the best path to prosperity,” Kudlow said
He mentioned that Trump’s policies are going to work so well that the socialists in the Democratic Party are going to get blown up and wiped out.
“They don’t have any diversity, and they need a John F. Kennedy-type tax cutter or a Bill Clinton moderate or Al Gore moderate, but don’t have one,”, Kudlow said
McDowell would follow up on Kudlow’s point by saying she thinks AOC will blow up because of what McDowell called a disastrous socialist experiment the Democrat party is going with.
“She’s going to own this, and when it explodes, it’s going to cover her in detritus, and she won’t be able to wash it off.”, McDowell said
