She’s one of the most vocal Democrats in the House of Representatives, and yet U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez can’t seem to find the words to endorse Joe Biden for president in 2024.
Appearing Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union,” the progressive New Yorker actually laughed at the prospect.
“I’m focused on winning this [House] majority right now and preserving a majority this year and 2022, so we’ll cross that bridge when we get to it,” Ocasio-Cortez said.
“But I think if the president has a vision, that’s something, certainly, we’re all willing to entertain and examine when the time comes.”
“That’s not a yes [on endorsing Biden],” noted CNN’s Dana Bash.
“I think we should endorse when we get to it, but I believe that the president has been doing a very good job so far,” Ocasio-Cortez replied. “Should he run again, I think it’s – we’ll take a look at it.”
Ocasio-Cortez laughed with unease, saying: “Right now we need to focus on winning a majority instead of a presidential election.”
In March, Ocasio-Cortez explained Biden was challenged with a “collapse of support among young people,” and “time for the administration is running out.”
“We need to acknowledge that this isn’t just about middle of the road, increasingly narrow band of independent voters, but, this is really about the collapse of support among young people, among Democratic base, feeling like they worked overtime to get this president elected and they aren’t necessarily being seen,” she said.
“I think the fact that the Biden administration has not been squarely shutting down, a lot of these executive orders do convey an openness, but I do think that time for the administration is running out,” Ocasio-Cortez said.

Well maybe AOC now knows what we ALL will know very shortly. His daughter Ashley’s diary is starting to surface. Remember this is the diary that was delivered to Project Veritas and famously triggered the FBI to raid PV. Creepy Joe will soon be known as a guy who showered with his own daughter and now she blames these actions on causing her to be sexually permissive as an adult.
Another shining moment in the Democrat Party’s illustrious leadership. Sheese
Find the clip. Watch the clip. I am waiting for the analysis of her words and gestures as she squirms and tries to answer simple questions about reelecting Old Sleepy. That should be most entertaining.
