As Chuck Berry once foretold, “You Never Can Tell” – 1964.
Although she was vaunted by the often stupidly-vociferous Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), candidate Nina Turner was handily defeated by the incumbent Rep. Shontel Brown (D-Ohio) in the 11th District primary in Ohio.
Prior to the customary endorsements, Brown had most of the establishment Left bolstering her campaign. Conversely, Turner, a latch-key child for Democratic Party hanger-on Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders’ 2016 and 2020 presidential campaigns, was backed by many from the radical left-wing.
The upshot is that for the thinking people of the world, the ink of such caricatures of leadership the Left sees in AOC is now running down their faces.
“I’m proud to have @AOC’s endorsement. Rep. Ocasio-Cortez is a leader in the fight for climate justice, workers rights and building a multi-generational, multi-racial working-class democracy. Together we will change what is possible in our political system. Thank you, sister,” Turner tweeted earlier this week.
And while they may indeed make changes together, it will not occur in the halls of Congress as Ocasio-Cortez’s previously golden stamp of approval fell short.
Fox News listed all the paper tigers the former bartender has helped in some way:
“She supported Rep. Cori Bush, D-Ohio, who beat former Rep. Lacy Clay, D-Mo., and Rep. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., who unseated former Rep. Eliot Engel, D-N.Y. Ocasio-Cortez herself beat former Rep. Joe Crowley, D-N.Y., to enter Congress in 2018,” the outlet noted.
While Ohio’s 11th Congressional District is generally considered a secured seat for Democrats, it remains to be seen if there will be an upset. As the song says, it just goes to show “you never can tell.”
Here’s a quick sampling of responses to the story from Twitter:
This should be very telling that a lot of Democrats are more moderate and tend to gravitate more towards the center both parties need to understand this.

I can’t think of anyone who will elect Nina Turner to any political office. How many times has she run and lost?

Maybe people are finally realizing that progressive policies & ideologies don’t work & sane people don’t want any part of them. So much for @AOC backing.

And on the contrary:
The candidate AOC backed about twelve hours before election day, after many, many days of early voting. Point being, she would have won or lost notwithstanding anything AOC did or didn’t do. AOC doesn’t have anything to do with this one.

Ocrazio is the gift that just keeps giving
Why would anyone with even half a brain even accept, garner or even admit to receiving an endorsement from that ditz Ocasio-Cortez? She’s brainless and needs to go back to what she was trained for – bar tending.
The dim witted AOC is like 0-10. ??? LOL
I would love to see major losses in Congress to include aoc, omar, tlaib, pressley and cori bush. They don’t deserve to get over $200,000 a year for doing nothing.
The entire Squat, those you’ve named above, Pelosi, Scumbag Schumer, Shifty Schitt, Swallows It, Half Wit Hoyer, etc
She’s dumb as a bag of rocks!
AOC has the demmunist touch. Everything she touches turns to crap.
FAOC
AOC has my approval. I have so many new tips on how-to put-on makeup. My pig, whom I call AOC by the way never looked better. Hilarious, AOC got spanked. Loser.😋
In ancient Rome the ladies of the evening painted their lips bright red to advertise their oral skills. Cleopatra was known as the “Fellatrix of Rome”. Ocasio-Cortez has continued that behavior. There is no other explanation for her election and reelection.
TEE HEE!!!
Let’s thank the far left for helping their candidate lose!
