Unfortunately, looks played a role and her good looks did have something to do with her rise. Can’t deny it. However, it’s not her good looks that are keeping her where she is.

Inertia of being overhyped at the start is keeping her where she is. Legislatively, she's a nobody. Her signature piece of legislation -which was nothing more than a resolution - was implemented in the "Inflation reduction act" and failed.

So what?

It's simple. A lumpy-looking middle aged dude with her resume and on-record statements would very likely not have been recruited and slotted into the role that AOC occupies today.
