AOC Scorches Republicans for Defending Gosar: ‘The Nihilism Runs Deep!’

The fact is congressmen are supposed to act like adults and respect other members of congress. There I supposed to be some rules, manners, and diplomacy in those who hold office, The Repubs have several who are diminishing the office.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) tore into House Republicans for rallying to the defense of Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ) just ahead of Wednesday’s censure vote, wondering “what is so hard” about saying Gosar’s cartoon depicting her murder is wrong.

Ocasio-Cortez’s remarks came right after House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) delivered a lengthy address claiming the censure of Gosar for publicly fantasizing about beheading his Democratic colleague was the “definition of abuse of power.”


“In response to the Republican leader’s remarks when he says that this action is unprecedented, what I believe is unprecedented is for a member of House leadership of either party to be unable to condemn incitement of violence against a member of this body,” she exclaimed.

“It is sad. It is a sad day in which a member who leads a political party in the United States of America cannot bring themselves to say that issuing a depiction of murdering a member of Congress is wrong, and instead decides to venture off into a tangent about gas prices and inflation,” the congresswoman continued. “What is so hard? What is so hard about saying that this is wrong?!”

It really is reprehensible that they supported him in this.

It is truly the Trump Party.
 
I have never had a job where showing a cartoon of yourself murdering a co-worker would be considered acceptable behavior.

House votes to censure GOP Rep. Paul Gosar after he tweeted an edited anime video that showed him killing AOC

The House of Representatives on Wednesday voted to censure Republican Rep. Paul Gosar of Arizona and remove him from his committee assignments after he posted an anime video that was edited to depict him killing Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York.

The rebuke also comes months after House Democrats voted to strip fellow far-right lawmaker Greene from her committee assignments in February. That vote came in response to the Georgia congresswoman's past support on social media for right-wing conspiracy theories and political violence. McCarthy, at the time, accused Democrats of a "partisan power grab."

OK, so just think about where our country is headed.

Think about it in the light of this.

If we elect more Republicans to Congress and flip that power over, as it surely looks like we are headed for, then what does that mean?

The Republicans would not have taken any disciplinary action against Gosar.

They are perfectly fine with members of Congress circulating cartoons on social media depicting them killing fellow members of Congress.

That is what America is about to vote for.

Unless something changes and we begin paying attention to where this is headed and realize the value of Democrats.

We can stop this.

We need to vote for Democrats in 2022 and make sure Republicans don't get power.

If McCarthy was the House Leader?

That censure proposal never would have even come up for a vote.

And we could expect free reign on members of Congress rehearsing, pretending, and depicting themselves killing other members of Congress.

It would be like training.

That is where it is headed.

We must not let that happen.

We must now realize that we cannot vote for Republicans in 2022.

We MUST retain Democratic leadership in Congress if we want a functional government.

They are talking about making Trump speaker of the house' assuming they win back the house. How damn stupid is that? However, they think Trump is capable of doing a job. He is not bright and is very lazy. But the Trump sucking up has no bottom.

Too funny. Nancy Pelosi envy.

Yes, Trump is incapable of the job.

But that didn't stop them in 16.
