to be honest, AOC doesn't seem very knowledgeable in general, IMO she's just a trump (a less successful one), but on the left.

Trump was a beast for the ages.
AOC is closer to a regular ol' populist. Note how she and Cruz were the first to join the ranks of angry people online in lambasting Robinhood before they could explain themselves in the GME debacle.

Even granting that AOC isn't "very knowledgeable in general", that's hardly the most important of Trump's qualities. Surely there are more important standards to judge a leader by than their intelligence. Kim Jong-un might be a brilliant man for all I know, but I don't think anyone should be emulating him. So no, I don't think you can say she's "a Trump".

I meant not very smart, but narcissistic and populist. Trump is also quite a psychopath, but he held a lot of power, we won't know if AOC would be like that or not until she has that kind of power (like a billionaire or president) exhibit A for narcissism https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9uTH0iprVQ

That's an exhibit in narcissism? I was genuinely curious what you would produce. Let me tell you, that ain't it.
