not dunking on laplew, but donald trump’s approval is in the mid-30s, and that means she could win enough votes nationwide bsky.app/profile/lapl...
Because she can never win enough votes nationwide, that’s why. AOC is from a super majority blue congressional district. To keep her seat, she doesn’t have to appeal any GOP voters ever.

20 years ago I knew a guy who worked part time, minimum wage, as a dishwasher.
He was able to afford rent and a car (both shitty but functional), concerts, weed, etc.
It's interesting to think of how that kind of dirtbag lifestyle is mostly just gone.
