Predictons: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

 She'll screw up and be put in the nation's time out corner now and then. She won't, however, be tainted by sex scandals that way men are, which bans them from public service forever, apparently. She'll apologize and come back.
The right will vilify her, the left will love her. She and others will make the 2020 election year all about capitalism versus socialism. The right will depict socializing anything as complete socialism and compare her to Stalin and Mao, whose policies murdered many millions of innocent people. The left will dig in. Moderates will be ignored. There will be fake pornographic images of her online. Those will be discounted by nearly everyone. There will be false stories about her. Those, too, will be discounted, but not by as many.

Mao and Stalin.

When Ocasio-Cortez runs again in 2020, her opponent will be generously funded. So will she. With two years' experience, she will do well in a debate, if there is one. Turnout in her district will be the highest it's ever been, and she will win, but not by as wide a margin as predicted.
