Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) said Rep. Haley Stevens (D-Mich.) has “been with the Republicans” since Congress returned, after the Michigan Democrat endorsed former Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Mich.) in the midterms.

“She’s been with the Republicans ever since she’s come back. So she’s been on the Republican side of the aisle,” Ocasio-Cortez said during an appearance on “The Don Lemon Show” that aired Thursday.

“This is just the epitome of a certain kind of transactional politics,” she added. “And it’s really sad.”

      The comments above aren’t talking about their job titles.

      Jeffries and Schumer are corpo Dems but that doesn’t make them only “symbolically” Democrats. It does not put them on the same level as Fetterman and Stevens. That’s just conspiracy theory nonsense.
