She’s a populist. I respect her grass roots campaign to


Unseat a dem veteran, which was quite an achievement, but she’s a dogwhistler, not unlike Palin. She had some mindnumbingly dumb things to say about proposed incentives to Amazon to move an HQ here. I don’t doubt that her base ate it up. Her brand of populism was imo one of the primary reasons for dem underperformance in ‘20, especially down-ballot.

It’s not really a statement about anyone’s intelligence, but a debate between AOC and Palin would be an intellectually barren contest between populist dogwhistlers. Imo anyway.
