Good. There's criticism and there's what you did, a total lack of anything beyond fifth grade.

You call her constituents her dissenters but again she won by a comfortable margin.

Dunno why. They are just as dimwitted as she is I suppose.
She hasn't done anything significant at all for her district.
Their problem. Not mine.

I'd say it's pretty accurate. What an egregious waste of taxpayers money.

It's that she's invoking both god and evil. That suggests it goes beyond mere secular state oppositions.
She let them have their say, she let them shout if that is what they wanted to do. She didn't have them ejected, she didn't encourage violence against them.
She met with her constituents, she faced them. This is why I like her so much.
(btw, to anyone here who didn't watch the clip Twilight Hue posted, I encourage you to do so. I doesn't make AOC look bad, quite the contrary.)

Sure. Telling of the mentality behind supporting this waste of money.

All you did was resort to dated sexism and try to make it seem like there's no way possible for her to have the comfortable victory margin she had.

For what reason I dunno.
AOC's Bronx, Queens district offices open just twice a week
She's completly worthless as a representative unless it helps promote her own political career.
Good points. I've been listening to a lot (too much?) of kinda centrist commentary around this. Or at least, not too heavily biased.
One of their takeaways from early surveying of people leaving polling booths was a little less about whether abortion was seen as an important issue per se, and more whether it was a motivation to vote. The conclusion they drew was that whilst generally people who are strongly pro-choice are already Dems, and unlikely to be swing voters, this was a major mobilising factor in getting young people to actually mobilise and vote.
This was both for young women, but also young men.
Sounds pretty plausible to me. It might not be that the issue was underestimated as important to people, but more that is was underestimated as a motivating factor in getting new/non-voters to actually vote.
This is a particularly interesting lens for an Australian to consider (since we have mandatory voting, meaning the need to mobilise the base is reduced, although not removed).

That would be completely uncharacteristic.

Can't make sense over something that had no real sense in the first place.

Yay.
Now the entire Fraud Squad can continue to be useless, celebrity politicians.

There is nothing "crazy" about them. They are typical establishment Democrats. No different than any other.
Reupblicans are underperforming because they don't take their jobs as public servants seriously. The exception is Florida and the DeSantis approach. Most republicans want to play extreme political games, not serve the country. What would republicans do with all of congress? We already have heard the promises of investigations that have no factual basis. And surely there will be bills assed that are traps for Biden to veto, so serious legislation that aims to help the average citizen. I say let them, and let the American citizen see the nonsense that Republicans create, and just lose even more votes to democrats. MAGA is going down in popularity, but we still see many conservatioves want to play MAGA with divisive and unconstructive comments. Clearly the Squad is not made up of dizty broads, as anyone can understand by hearing them speak. But this is the bad habit of conservatism today, they just have to be childish with insults, and they still believe this is going to win for them in the long run. Fine, keep going with that failing MAGA approach and let the republican party fight over control. The MAGAs and the sober republicans are already fighting for control. Trump is attacking anyone who is criticial, but at this point Trump is largely to blame for failures to win in the midterms.
They are called the "Squad" because they are typical. More conservative "thinking" to impress us.
So you paint all Dems with the same brush? Got it.
