The Saturday edition of The Weekend devoted a segment to the Dems' intraparty squabble over House committee positions, and in particular to AOC's attempt to supplant Gerry Connolly as the ranking member on the House Oversight Committee.

The co-hosts and guests all expressed support for AOC. Former Obama HUD Secretary Julian Castro: "I think it's inevitable, though, after an election where you had voters send a strong message, that Democrats need to adjust their message. And they need, I think, more of a fighting spirit, and a focus like I think AOC and others have had. So I'm hopeful that you're going to see some turnover here."

Going further left seems like a recipe for more Democrat pain at the polls, but this is MSNBC.

Modelo fighting spiritFor that matter, you might say that Castro sees AOC not just as a model leader, but as a Modelo one, praising her "fighting spirit."

Dems lost because they’ve gone too far left.

So naturally, MSNBC wants the Dems to go further left, by promoting AOC.

MSNBC should hire her as an on air personality with a fat paycheck. Getting those guns on the air would boost their crappy ratings
