2018 and the results from last night kinda prove it.

aoc is kinda deftly forking her own lane and subtly breaking away from the group orthodoxy in key moments. not a complete splinter but a new branch.

im sure she recognizes the limits and life expectancy of the movement in its current configuration.

the democratic party as a whole is getting more liberal/progressive but not necessarily in that sanders puritanical mold. moreso in the spirit of an unbuckled obama.
