Calling all progs! AOC's trio of minions needs you to fund their search for 'the next AOC to replace Manchin and Sinema'

Watch out, Joe Manchin. Don’t get too comfortable, Kyrsten Sinema.

AOC’s goons are comin’ for you:

Scoop: Co-founders of Justice Democrats and ex-AOC aides @saikatc, @corbintrent, @zackexley are setting their sights on Senate Democrats. They’re launching a search for challengers to WVa Sen. Joe Manchin and Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinemahttps://t.co/qoinA8Dk56 w/@hollyotterbein

No Excuses PAC, led by the trio of progressives, is targeting Manchin and Sinema over their opposition to eliminating the filibuster

“Help us find the next AOC to replace Manchin and Sinema," No Excuses PAC will write in an email to supporters todayhttps://t.co/qoinA8Dk56

This is a great idea with no obvious potential to backfire spectacularly https://t.co/a7NOW8mHnf

haha I’m a progressive but you have to know you audience. Someone left of Manchin won’t win in WV

So, they're trying to flip the Senate back to the GOP. Brilliant.

I’d say there’s no possibility these people are this shortsighted and self-defeating, but there’s every possibility. https://t.co/gVIavx0GVm

They are likely to find, as the Tea Party did before them, that it is a very different thing to oust a Senator than win some House races.

Also, neither of them are up until 2024. Seems it's more about influencing some votes like the filibuster now. https://t.co/rJoXS12ucZ

That seems to be the explanation they’re going with:

Manchin/Sinema aren't up till '24 and WVa, AZ are red and purple states. Trio behind No Excuses PAC & their former group Justice Dems haven't flipped any red seats. But No Excuses says they want to pressure the Sens before 2022 when Dems could lose control https://t.co/qoinA8Dk56

But there’s actually an even simpler explanation for what they’re doing:

Sounds about right.

Lol that's 100% a grift. Trying to challenge Manchin is literally insane. And who knows about Sinema, but it's 4 years from now, and those funds are gonna be used to pay the staffers bills, not challenge these Senators.

And as they are not up until 2024, it's a scam.

But hey, why should I get in the way of my opponents grifting their own supporters? https://t.co/Zg1GjqTEvS

We’d hate to mess with a good thing.
