That's always a possibility. But since it hasn't happened yet it can be put on the back burner for what is already happening with the GOP.

I wasn't blaming you for mentioning Trump. I was using you saying AOC is the same as Trump as the jumping point for another thought.

I responded to bringing Trump into the conversation. At least Hollodero has kinda admitted the GND isn't great. Which is pretty much how this whole conversation got started. I claimed she has had a lot of bad ideas, to which JJ screamed "fake news". I pointed out I read both versions of the GND and it really was terrible as just one example of her legitimately bad ideas, and some how (it's a great mystery I know) everyone who has replied to me wants to bring Trump into the conversation. 

The merits of the GND aside her "bad idea" is about improving the country and the world at its base. Which is why comparisons to Trump's "ideas" are legitimate as his seem to be based on...? Especially if the right has not stood up to Trump's "ideas" at all.
