Far-left self-described “democratic socialist” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez tore into the equally far-left Green Party, accusing it of being “not serious” and wondering if it’s anything more than a “spoiler” for the Democratic Party.

“Y’all, this is a little spicy, but I have thoughts,” Ocasio-Cortez said before beginning her critique of the perennial third-party presidential candidate. “Trust me, I’ve been on record about my criticisms of the two-party system, so this is not about that,” referencing her own New York City candidacy representing both the Democratic Party and the Working Families Party (WFP) and her endorsements of WFP and Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) candidates.
“What I have a problem with is the fact that if you’re running for president, you are the de facto leader of your party,” she said, “and if you run for years and years and years and years in a row, and your party has not grown and you don’t add city council seats and you don’t add down ballot candidates and you don’t add state electeds, that’s bad leadership.

Despite running presidential candidates in every election since 1996, the party has never won federal office or secured more than 2.7% of the popular vote. Ralph Nader’s 2000 campaign, where he won that amount, was especially criticized as a “spoiler” in the narrow race that ultimately went to Republican George W. Bush, Time reported. […]
