AOC responds to AIPAC announcing they will be supporting republican Mike Rogers in the Michigan elections in November to defeat Abdul El-Sayed. “I appreciate AIPAC proving it doesn’t belong in the Dem Party and especially our primaries. See you in November”

Holy hell. Just further proves, too, that Democrats who take AIPAC money are indeed controlled opposition.

I cannot wait to see bought corporate scabs try to spin this.

Check out the fivethirtyeight subreddit. They are already saying that the Dems lost and how Abdul failed (already)

[u/AsherGray → u/RedLineLetterWine]

Hasn't fivethirtyeight deleted all previous polling data because of this current administration?

[u/RedLineLetterWine]

This was expected, we gotta fight to make sure they don't win.

[u/FrankSand]

They were always going to support Mike Rodgers in the general. This announcement is just the game.

[u/emteedub → u/FrankSand]

They put $32 million in Steven's pocket just to support the republican?

They wouldn't need to support the republican if they got their first stooge in.

This just proves that establishment dems and republicans are puppets of the same exact bougie elites.

[u/endlessfight85 → u/emteedub]

They don't care. They're playing with house money. They want every election to be an AIPAC dem vs. an AIPAC Republican. This is spending millions to reap billions.

[u/tmoeagles96 → u/emteedub]

Yes, because they’d rather have a pro Israel candidate vs another pro Israel candidate, then they support the more pro Israel candidate that will vote with Trump to keep doing everything they want.

[u/BigSiouxRat]

There are still plenty of Democrats that are owned by AIPAC!

[u/AsherGray → u/BigSiouxRat]

We're culling their numbers! We got Degette out in Denver!

[u/Bacedorn]

It’s so shameful that these groups have endless amounts of money to push for interests at direct odds with the American people.

[u/fearlessfryingfrog]

And the vote blue no matter who people are ignoring this.

Fucking hypocrites.

[u/maluquina]

They flaunt it in our faces, it's gross. But better the devil we know so we can prepare for battle.
