NewsNation’s Chris ‘Fredo’ Cuomo is doing his part to push Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s ridiculous rebranding as a ‘moderate.’ In a recent video, he had high praise for AOC breaking with her past woke stances. Of course, she hasn’t changed; she’s just saying what must be said to reform her image because she has political aspirations beyond New York City.
Here’s more. (READ)
Chris Cuomo praises AOC for her shifting stances on woke positions:
"Your principles shouldn't really change, but your positions should."
Says she's doing it "to win elections."
So Cuomo claims her principles aren't really changing, then in the next breath admits it's a calculated play to win more votes.
Some of the leftwing media's attempts at gaslighting AOC's rebrand are going to be better than others.
AOC has changed as much as Cuomo has since CNN fired him. Not at all. (WATCH)

No one has asked her which woke position she has changed and how did she come to see the light?

Nope. We’re supposed to take AOC’s transformation at face value.
Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) candidates in the Democrat Party are attempting to purge their social media accounts of all their woke posts from a few years back.

Suddenly all the Socialist Democrats are deleting and laughing off everything they stood for over the past years.

Bankrupt the rich LOL

Rebranding AOC as a moderate Democrat is like rebranding Fidel Castro as a Conservative Socialist.

No one is buying it.
We are just a few months away from the liberal media telling us that @AOC is a moderate - just like they did with Harris, Biden, HR Clinton, Kerry, Gore, etc.

‘Journalists’ and their ‘news’ outlets will have no qualms about lying for AOC. They’ll do their part to get her elected if she’s the Democrat Party’s 2028 presidential nominee.
Commenters say Cuomo owes his career to his late father and brother. New York Governor Mario Cuomo is his father. His brother Andrew Cuomo also held the same office.
If not for being the son of Vote Cuomo/Not the Homo Mario, @chriscuomo would be slinging pies in a Kew Gardens pizzeria for a living while his brother runs numbers out of his basement apartment in Rego Park.

If his name was Chris Smith he'd be bagging groceries. When has he shown any insight into the topics he talks about?

That sounds about right.
Posters say Cuomo praising AOC is fake praising fake.
Hey, this is just like me praising Chris Cuomo for his fake quarantine during the height of COVID. pic.twitter.com/rSNRyeMiuW

We'll be seeing a lot of that.

Correct, the great political rebranding of AOC has begun. We’re just getting started on our journey to peak absurdity.
