... and I, for one, hope I live long enough to see her addressed as "Madam President".
I'm 2 years and change shy of 80, so I might be drooling in my dinner before that happens, but I can dream, can't I?

Then I guess we are closer to even: Gym Jordan is still running the Judiciary Committee and AOC is only the ranking Democrat on Oversight.

AOC engages in debate, JG engages in shouting matches. AOC wants to preserve democracy, GJ wants to usurp democracy with big dick religion (overturning the constitution is the essence of radicalism — AOC is not a radical). AOC has an expansive worldview, JG has an ideology that can be characterized as bigdickocracy..

I could go on . . .

in that regard there is some leveling if not even-ing. Otherwise she’s head and shoulders over Gym Jordan, toweringly so.
