AOC doesn’t want it because being Speaker is a full time job and would not permit her to do what she’s good at, plus most of that time would be spent fundraising, which she does not believe she is capable of to the extent needed.
She released a really long explanation of the whole Speaker battle the other day on Instagram, and that’s part of what she talked about: she literally has no interest in it.
I’m not on IG, but there are Instagram viewers that will let you watch without an account, and it is embedded in this article as well (it’s at the very end). You can hear it straight from her own mouth.
Tbh, I think the only reason AOC hasn’t done that is because of a potential 2028 presidential run

What is she good at that actually achieves change? I’m not being disingenuous here, I heard about the video she made but did not watch it.
