Great news for the GOP and RNC, that is.  This comes from a Sunday morning conversation between Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and CNN’s Jake Tapper caught by our colleague and pal Guy Benson at Townhall today, in which the progressive firebrand pledged to personally campaign in Georgia in the senatorial runoff elections. Ocasio-Cortez wants to personally explain that Democrats shouldn’t need to talk to nasty Republicans while governing the country, or something:

 

TAPPER: Biden is planning a wave of executive orders to roll back some of Trump’s policies once he takes office, on everything from climate to the so-called Muslim ban. As of now, however, it looks as though Republicans, at least until January, will hold control of the Senate. That’s going to complicate your desire and the desire of other progressives for bold, sweeping, progressive legislation.

I mean, theoretically, you can pass anything you want in the House, but it doesn’t matter if it goes to die in the Senate. How are you going to negotiate that? Are you going to work with more moderate Senate Republicans to try to pass something in the House that can get through the Senate?

OCASIO-CORTEZ: Well, I’m going to be spending my next couple of months doing everything that I can to extend help and offer support to the work of fantastic leaders that we just heard from like Stacey Abrams to make sure that we don’t have a Republican Senate majority, that we win these races in Georgia, that we secure a Democratic Senate majority, so that we don’t have to negotiate in that way.
