Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., warned her party about messing with the nominating process, arguing that it put candidates in "dangerous territory in terms of defeating" President Trump. He previously lost to former Democrat presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, who faced resistance from his delegates during the 2016 Democratic National Convention. Seen as a progressive icon, Ocasio-Cortez hasn't been afraid to flout party leadership and endorse primary challengers to Democratic incumbents. “Tonight, in this enormously consequential 2020 election, the first state in the country has voted and today marks the beginning of the end for Donald Trump,” Sanders said. And despite her previous criticism, Clinton herself pledged to support Sanders if he became the Democrat nominee.
