I think it's pretty undeniable that AOC is laying the groundwork to run for president. That does not mean she will ultimately decide to pull the trigger and run. But she's obviously preparing for the possibility.

AOC knows she's now leading the national left-populist, youth-focused movement for social democracy that Bernie helped start a decade ago. The only questions are 1) whether a presidential run is the best way to advance the movement and 2) whether she's personally ready run for president.

I think AOC is deeply committed to creating a broad left-liberal popular front for social democracy to stop MAGA fascism. You could call it "Berniecrat-ism." DSA makes up a key pole of that movement & punches well above its weight, but it's not actually a DSA campaign.
