Saikat Chakrabarti, for anyone wondering

Seems like he's a dick...

But that alone doesn't make him worse than Pelosi's chosen replacement.

That would explain why AOC isn't endorsing him, but not openly calling him a dick.

And running his campaign off her name when she won't even mention his name, is dickish behavior.

Either he no good, or AOC is getting inline and rather further her career then support the progressive agenda.

Speak loudly to me when she pulls a Warren and won't endorse progressive candidates. Did she endorse Mumbai?
