Your hysterics aside, what is it you would expect to actually happen in the party? A real prediction, go for it.AOC has accused Pelosi of inciting fucking death threats, assclown.

Shit had meMonsters lol
Her life is at risk and she gets death threats. So does Pelosi (at the moment AOC probably gets lots of them). AOC trying to passive-aggressively suggest that Pelosi's criticism of her is adding pressure to a dangerous situation is really childish, though understandable. Not sure what you're referring to about heads in the sand, that makes no sense.She guevara just insinuated her life might be at risk via death threats. Haha I know you always have your head in the sand but look up once in a while
The monsters!!!Trump recently stated that Nancy Pelosi is not racist.
Nancy Pelosi racist CONFIRMED! White supremacists always close ranks and defend one another.

It’s really astonishing to me that AOC has such a big following, frightening would better describe itMore telling than Pelosi's singling out those Reps was her not defending Ilhan Omar from the right wing attacks (even from her own party).
So, while I don't think she's racist, AOC has a point to call her out on this. And I like AOC a lot, don't like Pelosi at all, but I wish she didn't escalate this one quite so far as she did.
Blame the media and right for building up her profile.It’s really astonishing to me that AOC has such a big following, frightening would better describe it
Pelosi wants them in line and would prefer to try and beat them there now and not nearer the election.The "fracture" generated by four well-intentioned but naive liberal cats is way overblown. Pelosi is learning them a thing or two about politics. She's a fucking G, and the race-baiting is going nowhere. They'll have to grow up a little.
I think it's good... And not necessarily in the sense of "haha good. Bunch a fucking failures making bad press" To me it's good to shake up the norm to get some diverse conversation going and differentiate between some of the different ideologies within. If we're stuck with D vs R in this country let's at least recognize that this dichomy doesn't speak for people all across the political spectrum.Your hysterics aside, what is it you would expect to actually happen in the party?

I think that's all reasonable, but the volume of it is much lower than people are pretending. It's just not a big deal. It won't change party policy or procedure, it won't change anybody's popularity, etc. I doubt it could even change the picture of donations. It mostly just revs up dumb, crazy, or too-partisan Republican people.I think it's good... And not necessarily in the sense of "haha good.

It's no different than Amash telling the GOP to pound sand and stick to his values. You have evangelicals, libertarians, moderates, etc within the party and it's good to split it up and know what you're getting instead of what you usually get when politicians start taking universal stances to try to catch all while it gets closer to an election.
The harm that comes of this of course is when it turns into a circus. Tweets, make believe agendas, insults and flat out immaturity just makes our political system look like even more of a joke and sets us back even further. The key is let the division within help accomplish something tangible instead of yellow journalism fodder.

You underestimate the insanity of the progressive wing of the Democratic Party.Fracturing doesn’t necessarily have to be a bad thing. There was a seismic crack in the Earth between the traditional Republican “old guard” and Trumps “populism”, and that worked out. We’ll see what happens going forward but that seemed to me like an enormous fracture within the party and they’ve made it work for the most part.
