Yeah, not only is she polarizing between Democrats and Republicans, but she is polarizing even within her own party. I doubt she could win the nomination, let alone the election if by some miracle she did.
For the past 100 years, Americans have been indoctrinated to reject and fear anything remotely seen as socialist ideology. It is so culturally ingrained in much of the country that if you have someone known for having a socialist platform, you are completely taking yourself out of the running in every swing state. Some of those states, and even some red states, might consider a Democrat, but one as left-leaning as AOC.... not any time in the near future.
