I didn't want to create friction by suggesting you were lying, but the date puts the event even further away from the primary. If it were an endorsement, surely it would have been made much closer to the date. It's usually 6 months to maybe 9 months out, not 16 months out.

Bernie endorsed her, but AOC backed DeGette. I think that says something to all the MSM

AOC did not endorse DeGette. DeGette ran a misleading advert that implied she did.

You are the one trying to assert control over others by trying to tell them what to do.

Continue. Most would find it foolish to keep interjecting in a long-ended discussion to which you were not a part

I never once claimed AOC endorsed Kiros. AOC did not endorse anyone in this particular primary race.

I have made no accusations whatsoever about you. I just disagree about the AOC endorsing DeGette claim.

AOC and Khanna were being respectful to a fellow colleague whom they worked with in the past

Colorado's 1st District is very very blue and widely considered to be the safest Democratic seat in the entire state.
