COMMENTARY OF THE DAY

Vice President JD Vance predicts that Representative Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, best known as AOC, could be the front runner for the Democrats’ 2028 presidential nomination. She is an idiot will give the GOP the presidency.
While on the “Michael Knowles Show” on Tuesday, the vice president made the prediction, calling it “conventional wisdom.” “I think it’s got to be AOC. I know that’s probably conventional wisdom,” he stated. When the host argued that conventional wisdom more so pointed to California Governor Gavin Newsom (D-Calif.) winning the nomination over Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), Vance pushed back. “No, no,” he said. “I don’t buy that. I think I think he hurt himself with his comment to an audience full of Black Americans that I’m low IQ, just like you.”
This comes as progressives have performed well in recent primary elections and Ocasio-Cortez’s name has increasingly been floated as a likely candidate for the 2028 Democrat nomination. When responding to the vice president’s remarks, the New York representative smiled and told reporters, “I hope he is the nominee, too.”
