The divide between the progressives and those viewed as the establishment could not be clearer. Even though Biden has done all he could to accept all there policies they continue to not back him 100%.
This hurts Joe Biden more then the left will let you know.
UPDATE:
AOC has responded:
Congratulations, @JoeBiden – I deeply look forward to fighting for our future together and reclaiming our democracy in November.
Thank you @DemConvention for having me deliver Sen. Sanders’ roll call nomination speech.
It’s been an absolute honor.#NotMeUs & #Biden2020 🇺🇸 https://t.co/dJN1FUQfix

If you were confused, no worries!
Convention rules require roll call & nominations for every candidate that passes the delegate threshold.
I was asked to 2nd the nom for Sen. Sanders for roll call.
I extend my deepest congratulations to @JoeBiden – let’s go win in November. 🇺🇸 https://t.co/uI92P3UfLn

Something still seems fishy here. Why would they choose someone like AOC to do this when they know she would be such a strong voice behind Joe Biden?
