The Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez backlash begins

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is learning that with speedy recognition also comes a lot of criticism.

Ocasio-Cortez has seen her popularity explode in the last three months, and is now experiencing building backlash that comes with that.

"There is, without a doubt, a myth that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez somehow represents the narrative of Democratic primary voters in the country," said John Anzalone from Alabama.

The self-proclaimed liberals in the Democratic party seem to be opposing the more moderate and conservative members of their party.

"My main gripe about AOC is that while I respect her voice in the party, I don't think she respects mine or anyone else's who differs with her on policy or comes from a different political electoral reality," Anzalone said.

How do you feel about Ocasio-Cortez? What do you think of how she deals with those that oppose her? Who represents the Democratic party the best currently?
