The Media Strategy to Turn Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Into Taylor Swift. By Stephen Miller at PJ Media.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her dating life are about to become a singular media obsession, just a full year from likely announcing a presidential run.

Maybe the newly single “AOC” goes a boring route, and her next relationship or spouse is just some boring policy wonk from the New York Democratic Socialists of America chapter. But that won’t generate buzz, and it won’t make her the main character in the country, a position that has been held by Donald Trump and Taylor Swift now for roughly a decade.

So here we go:

AOC is 36 years old and recently announced that she would be freezing her eggs, sticking syringes into her abdomen on camera. Will she have kids or not? With whom?

 

The TMZification of our media [i.e. celebrity news] will seize on the opportunity to make Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s personal love life the center of cultural curiosity of the presidential race. Who she is seen out on the town with, who she is having dinner with, who she just broke up with, or who she is engaged to.

They see this as an opportunity to do the impossible — to finally rescue control from Donald Trump, who has had a stranglehold on media attention for the past decade.

We know this because she’s already opened the door and let the media and her audience into her home.

Get ready for it. Get ready for “AOC 24/7” — who she’s dating (an athlete or musician or actor, maybe?), “AOC spotted court-side,” “AOC spotted on the red carpet,” “AOC spotted backstage” — and the press to create a media and political phenomenon that cannot be countered by other Democrats in a presidential primary. …

Running for President in 2028:

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is going to run for president in 2028. … Here’s the thing about Ocasio-Cortez: she hates her job.

She hates being stuck in Congress and all the administrative nonsense that comes with it. She would much rather be out in the streets with her fellow comrades tearing down October 7 hostage posters.

The presidency has always been on her horizon, and Bernie Sanders, who turns 164 years old this year, likely doesn’t have another populist run in him, but his most valuable and visual disciple does. …

The decision to open her bedroom to her most personal decisions on fertility is a calculated image action to reshape herself as a celebrity.

Just the qualifications of the sort of person we need running the free world. DEI and mediocrity along the path to the idiocracy.
