AOC discovers side effects!

The New Impeachment Consensus Complicates Progressive Primary Challenges

“For a lot of centrist Democrats facing primaries, impeachment gave them a chance to flash their anti-Trump credentials,” said one Democratic strategist.
As momentum for impeachment built among House Democrats this week, progressives challenging incumbent members of Congress sensed an opportunity.

The opposition to impeachment from the House members they were running against had become a key campaign talking point ― framed as a lack of courage in the face of President Donald Trump’s power, which reflected a flawed and outdated approach to governing.

Except, as noted in the article, incumbents simply took the impeachment route and AOC challengers lost their cause. 

This is a clear case of AOC learning something new, and it is hard for her, being badly educated as she it.   Clues are very difficult for the gal and she needs Nancy to provide guidance.
