If you're talking about the last line. It's already been pounced upon and widely taken out of context by both social and mainstream media to keep driving in that wedge.tempo_n_groove said:https://fortune.com/2021/02/02/aoc-ig-live-video-capitol-trauma-bathroom/
Taken from the Capitol thread.
Everyone give a read so we can discuss what she said.
Just the facts: She was referring to the disembodied voice that belonged to the officer, not the officer himself.
But who's going to click on/be outraged by that?

It has? Did she say that because it is worthy of discussion and if I am persuaded by something else she mentions then I'll move on.dankind said:

I am no AOC fan as a politician.
But I wouldn't wish that fear on her. She knows she's a lightning rod. She loves it. It's part of her brand. But in that moment she was just a US representative that we as a nation failed. No matter who was in there, they should never be too scared to open their office doors. That is just crazy.
Trump, Cruz, Gaetz, that awful Q-loving manlady....all responsible for that day, those actions, that fear, and the deaths. Including a police officer. Blue lives matter my ass. Just another bunch of fucking hypocrites.

Now that's how you lead in a crisis. Maybe sometimes her message doesn't come across correctly all the time but I think her heart is generally to do what is the right thing. I applaud her efforts to help Texas.tbergs said:Seems AOC knows how a politician can help in a time of crisis.
