AOC - Oust Incumbent Democrats

[GURPS]

Cortez as well newly sworn-in Rep. Ayanna Pressley, who likewise dethroned an incumbent Democrat — Ocasio-Cortez puts out the call to her fellow democratic socialist-minded activists to oust congressional members of her own party, declaring it's "#OurTime."

"Don't people realize that the most powerful position you can be in is when you are not materially attached to a position of power," Ocasio-Cortez says in a conversation with fellow Justice Democrat leaders. "If you're a one-term congress member, so what? You can make ten years worth of change in one term if you're not afraid."

"We as Justice Democrats have the chance to really transform the Democratic Party running in competitive primary elections in Democratic-held seats is important," says one of the leaders, Ocasio-Cortez nodding in agreement.

She's not wrong. One of the largest issues with our elected representatives is that the idea of only serving one term is an anachronism. Has she openly committed to only serving one term? So many "term-limits" congresspeople get in then oddly enough forget about that.

Yes, But can a one-timer get the millions that others get who stay there for life?
I guess we will see in two years.
