Watch as our favorite socialist superstar, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez loses her mind over President Trump’s tweet complaining that Democrat’s impeachment push was like a “lynching:”
Wow, that was a mouthful. Young AOC may be the one cracking under the pressure.
That was an embarrassing performance and Ocasio-Cortez should be ashamed, but like most Democrats, she has no shame.
Partial transcript:
REPORTER: “Today this morning, President Trump tweeted out that the Democrats are basically giving him a lynching. And I guess for the impeachment, you know, what’s your thoughts on that?”
OCASIO-CORTEZ: “Well, first of all, to not understand the history of our country, not understand the scourge of not only slavery, but the fact that lynching happened well beyond slavery, well into the days of people in this body, you know, very well still being here.
It’s horrifying that he would do this, but also we have to understand that he is using our pain to his advantage as well. He chose that word deliberately. People think that he uses his words as mistakes.
They’re not. He deliberately chooses the most racially animating, divisive terms so that he can rile up that base. Because that’s what he knows he can build power on.
And the real question is if this is how he builds his power, what does that mean for the future of our country and for our safety?
He relies on the outrage, which like, we have to say something. Right?
We cannot allow this to be normalized.
So he relies on the outrage and then he uses the outrage, takes it to the base and says see, they don’t like us and if you don’t like this, they are being too sensitive. We are going to rally your support.
And that’s exactly how he operates in dividing this country.”
