There is a really excellent documentary called Knock Down the House. It followed four progressive women launching grassroots campaigns against powerful political figures. 

If memory serves AOC is the only one of the four who won her race.

You see MAGA love to hate women. That is one of the reasons why they hate Nancy Pelosi so much.

It is the Howard Stern effect, where people who liked his show listened to about half of it, people who really had no opinion on Stern didn’t listen to any of his show. People who hated Howard Stern listened to every minute of his show. AOC is the same way.

MAGA’s hatred has made her a household name and it is awesome, because I love her. She is just excellent. She is what MAGAs wish Donald Trump was.

    I first heard about her from my trump-loving cousin (who is virulently anti-immigrant while being the half-Thai son of an immigrant). He didn't even know her actual name, just "AOC", and was ranting about her wanting to ban airplanes or something.
