Fox News contributor Paul Mauro discusses whether Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez could secure the Democratic presidential nomination. “I think it’s there for her, certainly the Senate seat. I think you’d have to give her a strong edge over Chuck Schumer, who I think has become increasingly irrelevant to what is the current Democratic base,” Mr Mauro told Sky News host Danica De Giorgio. “The real question is whether she thinks she has a shot at president … if I were a betting person, I would be going with her for the nomination. “I think that Chuck Schumer’s Senate seat is hers if she wants it here in New York. The question is, will she shoot higher, and that’s where I think her luck runs out. “I don’t think she’s qualified for the White House.”
