To reiterate her point: Trump increased his margin in Ohio, Biden improved on Hillary's margin in Minnesota (quite significantly).
I doubt either Trump or Biden performed as they did in both states due to Kasich or Omar.

Perhaps but apparently Omar did a lot of groundwork in Minnesota while clearly, Kasich's endorsement did nothing for Biden in Ohio. In any case, AOC's frustration is understandable, in my opinion anyway.

Obviously there's a big difference between both states. Ohio has been trending R in recent cycles and is basically a red state. MN has been blue for generations, so its difficult to reduce how both candidates did in either state because of tangential politicians from those states. The Trump cult had their affairs in order and came out in massive numbers, which would of course make states previously trending red easily go red this time.

Well, he was still a Republican. He was just one of the better ones. Not a particularly high bar, generally speaking, especially these days. I mean you see people being nostalgic for GW Bush which is insane if you really think about it.
George Bush and his "Bushism" paled in comparison to Trump's Twitter rants and crazy speeches. It's mind boggling when I think about it. I thought Bush was the nadir of stupidity but Trump is all out insane.

I like how despite getting mail in votes for himself he considers those ones legal.
