You know the story. Socialist darling Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez won the primary in New York’s 14th district. But she’s not ALL socialist. That’s only “part” of who she is.
WATCH: Is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez running as a Democrat or as a Democratic Socialist?@Ocasio2018: “It’s part of what I am, it’s not all of what I am.” #MTP #IfItsSunday pic.twitter.com/UgzQVDEnCY

Please ignore the fact that she wants to abolish ICE. Oh. And guaranteed jobs for ALLLLLL!
The old-school progressives are totally freaked out by Ocasio-Cortez, but not for the reasons you may think. You see, they agree with her. But they’re old school in the sense that they don’t proudly proclaim their socialist beliefs OUT LOUD.
Remember how Pelosi tried to desperately downplay Ocasio-Cortez’s win? She was all, “Nobody’s district is representative of somebody else’s district,” adding that it was “just a sign of vitality of our party.”
Well, not according to DNC Chair Tom Perez! Ocasio-Cortez is the future of the Democratic Party!

Did you hear that in the back? “She represents the future of our party…”
Any questions?
In obvious news: DNC Chair says the socialist platform, by way of Cortez, is the future of the party. https://t.co/pBjnAT5cgk

This is the new Democratic Party. It’s the party of intolerance, hate and yes. Socialism.
