Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez left the door wide open on Sunday when asked whether she might run for president in 2028 or take on fellow New Yorker and Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer. Her response signals that she isn’t ready to close off any path forward, even as speculation grows about her political future.

Ocasio-Cortez is increasingly viewed as one of the most likely successors to the political movement Senator Bernie Sanders built, and whichever direction she ultimately chooses could have a major impact on the future of the Democratic Party.

The topic came up during her appearance on ABC’s “This Week,” when host Jonathan Karl referenced a recent New Hampshire poll showing her out in front of the potential Democratic presidential field and asked directly whether she planned to run.

Ocasio-Cortez responded by saying her attention right now is on winning the midterms and running for her current seat in Congress. Still, she added that she hasn’t ruled out the possibility and said she feels humbled by the level of support she has received. When Karl followed up by asking whether she might instead challenge Schumer for his Senate seat, she said that anything is possible at this point.

She noted that millennials are no longer the young outsiders they were once seen as, pointing out that many in her generation are now adults juggling mortgages and children of their own. According to Ocasio-Cortez, that generation is starting to make its presence felt at the ballot box and is beginning to take charge of the party’s direction.

She explained that she has largely avoided challenging her own House colleagues in primaries this election cycle, saying that politics is, in her words, also a workplace. Instead, her endorsements this cycle have mostly gone toward open seats, along with efforts to unseat incumbents within New York’s state legislature.

She also put some distance between herself and a number of the more polarizing positions associated with the left in 2020. Referencing New York City Council member Chi Ossé’s viral response to one of his own older posts, in which he joked that his past self was acting a little crazy, Ocasio-Cortez agreed that the rhetoric common back then isn’t rhetoric that fits the moment today.
