The difference between AOC and Green is off the scale. Respect
💙💙💙
I'm from Georgia, and id rather have an AOC than a MTG..
One knows what a garbage disposal is and one doesn't.
...between AOC and most of the GOP is off the scale. Respect indeed.

Great interview.....very informative. We are fortunate to have such an intelligent and well spoken Congresswoman in the Democratic party. I see her moving up the chain of command in the future.
I sure hope so!
She's only lost support in her district, not gained.
I was thinking the same thing. She is a very inspiring young woman and I am sure she will move up in the political ranks.

Shes actually a communal narcissist who cannot handle criticism and has emotional self control issues.
One of the most substantive interviews I’ve seen in a while. She laid out some interesting strategic possibilities for the Dems.
Like night and day between the interviews of her and Boebert
@@GordonRebel Agreed.
Boebert has brains.

I envy AOC’s ability to make people on the Right hate her just because she exists. That means she’s doing something right.
They hate her because she's female, she's gorgeous, she's educated and she can't be bullshitted.
The LGBTQ and Racial minorities have been doing that the whole time

Speaking to Gaetz and Gohmert at the SAME TIME must be a nauseating experience for anybody. However, Ms Ocasio-Cortez's offer to Mr McCarthy not only showed her to be a gracious opponent, but was also a masterful tactic, as it must have been deeply humiliating for him.
She is a class act.

I spoke with George Santos a couple years ago. Real nice guy. It was an honor to shake the hand of the first man on the moon.
Alexandria is a great example of the new and younger generation of politicians who are doing their best and finest work to bring our country back from the brink. And at 66 years old, I'm hoping to one day cast my vote for her for president of our United States.😎

Oh yea!
She gives me hope.
Man, she’s sharp. Clear, concise, engaging and sincere. A bright, bright future.

@@hotchicsf So far it is free. If the PUTIN Lovers in the TrumpubliNazi party have their way, we will all be speaking Russian. If they want Putin for a leader, he will welcome them with open arms. Lauren Boebert and Faker Santos are new Putin fans. If they will take MTG and Pedo Gaetz and Gym Jordan with them to Russia, I will chip in for a ticket. MTG and Boebert can go to the front line in Ukraine and shoot their guns all they want for Putin.
AOC is such a marvelous lawmaker
Right! She’s done wonderfully ever since she was inaugurated and has been signing bills.
Her three minutes questioning Michael Cohen will become as historically important as "Have you no sense of decency?" Her exchange exposed Trump's tax fraud scheme with specific properties, confirming earlier articles, and names. Cohen's sworn testimony forced the half-assed investigations to move, resulting in Weisenberg's guilty plea, Trump Co.'s criminally conviction, and now w/ his tax returns, Trump's inevitable indictment. Watch the reactions of his attorneys and the woman behind Cohen as they realize what AOC and Cohen did. Glad he got his well-deserved revenge.
@@davidj3002 I was particularly moved by her jumping in and raising millions of dollars for Texans when their power grid collapsed leaving the Texans without necessary utilities and Ted Cruz escaped to Cancun. Remember that?
Alexandra is the very definition of class, intelligence, dignity, Decency, professionalism, grace, compassion and open minded while not buying into The Crazy.
Kinda like one of My Sheros - Nancy.
She refused to initially support Pelosi as speaker in 2018 so she’s being a hypocrite in this interview. If she’s so marvelous, share with us what specific legislation she’s sponsored or cosponsored. She made Amazon and do a uturn and not open a huge office in Queens with her hot air rhetoric creating thousands of good paying jobs and supporting local businesses in the area, especially during the pandemic. Amazon hired more people in Virginia. While she is learning she speaks on matters where she has little knowledge. Pelosi understands that passing legislation is making sausage, getting some of what you want but not everything.
Dunno if I've ever seen AOC go into any interview smiling as much as this. I guess this is one of those moments that she really enjoys her position.
Love her.
She never gets interviewed by an opposing side. She always goes on pro democrat platforms. Point out one time she went on and got interviewed willingly by the opposing forces? She's weak and got elected by weaklings.
She must be smiling now😂
@@clashofclansshield8583 he was bound to be elected as speaker at some point so I'm sure she's fine

They can say whatever they want, but AOC is a very competent leader and communicator.
Wish the republicans had someone like her. Republicans never talk about real problems. Not very intelligent
She can dance too! 😂
@@7u655 repubs tried to slander her as a witless airhead with that dance video and it backfired BIGLY. everyone who saw it went " pretty girl having fun! that's wonderful!".
I want her to run for president. I'd 100% vote for her.
You're absolutely correct! AOC, Katie Porter, Stacey Plaskett, Leader Jeffries, Bernie Thompson, etc. are the kind of people you can get when voting blue! George Santos, Boebert, MTG, Matt Gaetz, etc. are what you get from a GOP vote! Liz Cheney and Adam Kissinger, voices of reason, are the outliers in the GOP! The contrast is staggering! So vote blue more in 2024!
She's on a fast track to become a party leader and she's just beginning her second term. Its sort of takes me back a bit, to see Republicans engage her as if she's the Speaker, I guess she's a force to be reckoned with in the House.
Hopefully a future President
Is this not her third?
Please ask AOC why she hates white people when her name is Spanish? Why does she blame all white people for everything when Cortez went into Mexico and killed thousands of indigenous people? LOL
She isn't. They just don't want more brown people burning down businesses all over the country. That is actually blackmail.
Interesting to hear AOC talk about a coalition government. We hear about those in Europe and they're a weird idea to us Americans but maybe this is what we really need to be working toward. At least it would give some structure to the party-vs-party bickering.
Wow. How does AOC talk to Gosar & Gaetz without throwing up in her mouth? She has amazing fortitude and class.
Why am I grossed out when AOC spoke closely to Gossar and especially Gaetz HAHAHAHHA
@StopTheHammering 🤡
Well, she is way too old for Gaetz and she knows that he isn't trying to get his hand into her. Also, she has no daughters to worry Gaetz is just talking to her to get access....so, they can have a real conversation.
....I just wonder how Congress members with teenage girls are able to talk with Gaetz. You would always need to be careful what to talk about. Not to reveal any details Gaetz can use to get close to the girls....
Especially Gosar, knowing his murdery fantasies toward AOC
@StopTheHammering children usually grow up though. You didn't
So nice to see AOC. She tells it like it is. She does not have a spin, and she represents the people who voted her in.
Truly and the voters that didn’t. All people as it should be.
I’m one of them since I live right in her district. 😁👍
Anyone who likes this thing, likes evil and supports the destruction of our once great country. You need your head examined.
She is amazing
That's because she's ignorant
She can hardly contain her smile when speaking of how much of a dumpster fire the gop is now…..priceless
Alexandria will be an excellent 'Speaker Of The House' some time in the future.
I hope she's a future president. Stellar human being.
Yes . I think she is more matured now. And has gotten more experience. The interview was cool calm and great.. she will be a great leader.
@@benjamindoverr3455 She's good, but needs more experience. Maybe in another 8 years.
Yeah, I have also thought that a few times. She probably will eventually, if she can survive the next few terms.
That'll be a very long time in the future.
I have respect for how much AOC has learned in her first 2 years, but she has a very long way to go... On practically everything, not just procedures but also simple facts and knowledge how businesses, military, society works.
She's there dialoguing with the guy who fantasized about her death in a disturbing way. It's a testament to AOC's status as the bigger person in just about every situation. Most people would think she was crazy, but you can't get anywhere without a willingness to reach out. She's among the few who grasps that and it'll serve her well in the coming years.
Agreed, takes guts to do that
She's a future legend in the making.
She's not crazy... she's a tough chick from the Bronx, who knows how to prioritize and handle herself with pride.
@@lilicho9296And integrity!
I greatly respect and I usually agree with many of her stance, but I'm not with her on the democrats backing Mccarthy. Better they back another more sane moderate republican that doesn't pander to trump. Ultimately I'd rather Jeffreys get it, but if it has to be a republican I wouldve felt better if the democrats reached across the aisle to coalesce with a Chaney or kinsinger. Not Mccarthy who panders to the MTGs and Lauren Boeberts.
AOC is so intelligent, insightful and mature beyond her years. Looking forward to when she is old enough to run for president or be chosen as a VP pick by someone.
NOMINATE LIZ CHENEY!
So refreshing to hear an intelligent, eloquent conversation
AOC speaks so well; I hope she makes a larger move at some point in the near future. Too intelligent and well spoken to stay where she is
She’s the boogeyman for everyone on the right. They don’t know anything about her other than they hate her. She needs better PR.
Agreed. The sky is the limit for AOC.
Imagine a Democratic presidential ticket with Pete Buttigieg as President and AOC as VP. Holy Progress Batman! Both of them are so well spoken and articulate, and so incredibly intelligent, listening to either of them talk is a purely orgasmic.
@@jobnieloliva5358 Exactly what gives you the idea that anyone on the right would listen to PR? Or facts? Or anything that might make them less hostile?
@@privatename3621 I am SO there for that!

Yes, but it is near impossible that even one would be willing to switch. Well.. maybe Santos, he does not have anything to lose, because he does not have anything to win.
*destroy
Lol
Nonsense
Not even that! If the chaos within the GQP produces enough present or abstain votes, it brings down the number required to become speaker and if all 212 Democrats stick with Jeffries, he could become Speaker of the House with that! 😅 its a stretch of a scenario, but its possible if the GQP is just winging this without any strategy behind it.
AOC is a class act. This is how true politicians speak and answer straight forward questions. No BS, just truth. You can't get that on the Republican side of the house. One question I have is why is McCarthy camping out in the Speaker's Office? Until he's voted in send him packing back to his own office.
I love the way she explains things. Very helpful.
Rep. Ocasio-Cortez makes me smile. She is always well prepared when she speaks and is never vague or dismissive. I hope to see her enjoy a long career leading the USA.
Well stated brother.
The complete opposite of MTG! AOC has good morals.
She's a race Hustler that's all she does is race hustle and push her satanic gender faith.
Her whole life is hustling from the time she was a bartender she still hustling today pretending to be Latino when she's Jewish. The hypocrite tries to push equity on everybody else but doesn't apply the same standards to herself.
She would make a fine speaker herself someday.

This was a fairly lengthy interview that covered a wide range of topics, and Ocasio-Cortez stayed on point throughout every question brought to her. It's impressive how focused and clear she stays communicating every aspect of her message. I find her to be inspiring and a model politician.
Clearly, Republicans have put as much time and effort into finding a Speaker as they have defining their Party's platform.

THIS AOC WOMAN DOES NOT KNOW WHAT SHE SPEAKS. THE FIRST MISTAKE SHE MADE IN FRONT OF THE CAMERAS WAS ASSURING THAT THE DEMOCRATS HAD NEVER DISUNITED. THAT IS A LIE AND SHE KNOWS IT VERY WELL BECAUSE SHE WAS A FOLLOWER OF BERNIE SANDERS AND WHEN BERNIE SANDERS RUN IN THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY AGAINST HILLARY CLINTON. BERNIE SANDERS LOST AND MANY OF HIS FOLLOWERS INCLUDING AOC WERE ANGRY. AND WHEN THE HILLARY CLINTON VS DONALD TRUMP ELECTIONS CAME 80% OF THE DEMOCRATS WHO FOLLOWED BERNIE SANDERS DID NOT VOTE FOR HILLARY CLINTON BUT ABSTAINED FROM VOTING. EVEN SUDDENLY SHE DID NOT VOTE FOR CLINTON. YOU CAN REALIZE THAT THIS WOMAN HAS NO EXPERIENCE TO TALK ABOUT POLITICS. SHE SPEAKS ABURDEN THINGS. THE PREVIOUS DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS DID NOT DELEGATE COMMITTEES TO THE REPUBLICANS. THE PREVIOUS DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS GOVERNED SELFISHLY. AND AOC IS SAYING THAT SHE BELIEVES SOME COMMITTEES ARE GOING TO DELEGATE TO THE DEMOCRATS. IF THEY DIDN'T GIVE THE REPUBLICANS ANYTHING, THE DEMOCRATS EXPECT THE REPUBLICANS TO GIVE THEM SOME COMMITTEE. THIS WOMAN IS CRAZY. BUT SHE HAS NO EXPERIENCE AS A CONGRESSMAN. THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY VOTE THIS AFTERNOON IN COMPLETE UNITY FOR A LEADER WHO WILL BE MINORITY LEADER. BUT THAT MINORITY LEADER DOES NOT REPRESENT ANYTHING. THAT'S WHY ALL THE DEMOCRATS VOTED FOR HIM. BY JEFREY. BECAUSE HE REPRESENTS DEFEAT. THE LOSING PARTY. THE MINORITY . HE CAN'T DO ANYTHING. HE ONLY REPRESENTS THE MINORITY. HE REPRESENTS THE GROUP THAT DOES NOT COMMAND. BESIDES ALL THIS I DON'T KNOW HOW THIS WOMAN IS IN CONGRESS. AOC SEEMS SHE IS BLIND OR DOESN'T LIVE IN THIS WORLD OR NEVER BEEN TO A SUPERMARKET SHE TALKS ABOUT PROTECTING THE WAGES OF PEOPLE WHO WORK. PROTECT HEALTH CARE. BUT HE DID NOT MENTION THE DOZEN EGGS IS COSTING $6 AND 2 YEARS AGO WITH TRUMP IT WAS $2. IT DOES NOT MENTION THE LARGE BUTTER BEFORE 2 YEARS AGO I PAYED $3 FOR A BUTTER. NOW YOU GO TO THE SUPERMARKET AND THE BUTTER COSTS
$15. THAT IS WHAT YOU HAVE TO ARRANGE FIRST THE PRICE OF GASOLINE, AND AFTER THE PRICES OF FOOD. AND ALSO THE IMPEACHMENT OF PRESIDENT BIDEN AND THE PROSECUTION OF HIS SON FOR CORRUPTION.
She is a smart woman and a quick study. She's trolling the daylights out of ol' Kevin right now.
Yes she is... and I wonder how many people have picked up on that.
This reminds me of the last days of Rome: Even as the city burned, the politicians still fought for whatever power was left.
AOC has such class. I have yet to see her lower herself to her political contemporaries, especially the men in the parties. They need to grow up and put away their bully pants and slip into their big boy....adult male pants. She is a good example...hopefully they pick up a few tips from someone so much younger than they; even though they have a hard time respecting someone younger, better looking and female.

Look at that beautiful smile. AOC is loving this. We all are.
honestly the benefit of having to bring Dems in for a shared governing body in the house would be a much needed reminder that intermingling of parties can be healthy instead of this ride-or-die party lines
I hope that one day she will be selected as the Speaker of the House, she has the charisma, intelligent and she is a great communicator.
This is actually one of the best interviews. Straight, real questions and real answers.

Whether you care for the way AOC presents herself and/or gets her points across, there is no doubt that she does her homework, is well spoken and will not back down from a cause she is invested in.

I am an avid supporter of national political and societal unity in America -
May we be blessed with both for generations 👍☺️🇺🇲
AOC's clarity, deep thought and good humor is refreshing in a politician. Her willingness to engage, even with creeps like Gaetz and Gosar, shows extraordinary willpower too. Impressive.

MAGA DUM LOUDLY
@Friendof Cheapergas
“Thank you…”
You’re literally bragging about being gullible.
It’s not something to celebrate.
@friendofcheapergas5103 So you voted for the party that has written tax laws that allow billionaires to not pay any taxes? And you praise the former potus for taking advantage of the tax laws that his party provides for the donor class. We've got some stupid folks in this country.
Oh my god, this is a truely intelligent woman. Compare that to BoBo and MTG its a non event..........
She spoke with class and taste...but you could tell that she is probably kinda enjoying the entire mess...and rightfully so. The current GOP is an absolute dumpster fire.
Jeffries is only six votes away from getting the speakership! Go Hakeem !!!
He would be a terrible Speaker. Sure, a few Repubs vote for him now, or enough abstain to get him elected, but getting bills passed, they’re going to stick to their party, because that’s the campaign money and committee assignments. Nothing about his competence, he may be a great leader. But you have to be the majority party for this job.
@@mikekolokowsky not sure why you think that. He’s the representative of my district and he has always accomplished what he has set out to do. He delivers on his promises. He is absolutely competent and would make an excellent speaker for the House of Representatives.
@@mikekolokowsky I disagree...he would make for a remarkable and powerful speaker. You need to research his background.
🇺🇸
@@liquiddevil7396 YES! 🇺🇸👍
@@mikekolokowsky how do you know he would be a terrible speaker Mike,now I believe that you was thinking about Kevin McCarthy
You mean he can’t get it together like Nancy did😳🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭😭😭
Who could possibly have seen that coming?
@Friendof Cheapergas Sigh, what is Tucker lying to you people about now?
@Friendof Cheapergas Trump org convicted on all 17 felony charges, including serial tax fraud.
@Friendof Cheapergas look dude, not even Fox or OAN aired Trump's NYE speech... Just let him go. Even Rose had to let Jack go once the Titanic sank. 🥀
@@tishwitch😂😂😂
Wish there was more info. from the conversations. I want to hear AOC make them sound stupid but she just did that on this interview. AOC is so important to fixing our country. So much charisma, integrity and intelligence. Representative Jeffries and her are America’s future.
AOC … Girl, you sure know how to talk 👏🏻👏🏻
I wish for more younger men and women like AOC hold more positions in office. It’s time to get rid of anyone that has been serving since Reagan to go.
Except Bernie Sanders & Katie Porter. 😇😇😇😇
Finally a politician with a brain
O there are quite a few, but AOC is noteworthy.
LOL
I dunno... Boebert & MTG are pretty smart 😂😂😂
Well Biden lost his so it must have got transferred to her.
@@Eddie-ud4bb
SMART WHERE AT.? IN THEIR BIG OR
LITTLE TOE? THEY ARE SMART AND CRAZY. ALRIGHT.. JUST SMART MOUTH!! Just plain CRAZY! DO YOU SEE OR HEAR SOME OF THE POS THEY SAY.? IF NOT MAYBE YOU BEST LISTEN!!
they created a monster and now its eating them alive and I love it
My mind spins and eyes roll back in my head as I continually try to figure out all of this as I sit north of the border. 🇨🇦
You definitely have enough to worry about in your country 😁
AOC is an exceptionally intelligent and well spoken woman. I am not an American but I have a huge amount of respect for her.
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. She is totally captured by the Democrats. Admitted so; not exactly what she promised her constituents.
"United we stand divided we fall." Apparently the GOP are not familiar with that concept.
they are. they're banking on it.
So… True!!
Republicans don’t know the difference between arrogance and confidence.
Could not have said it better.
The party of divide.
"If the government is not perfect, it should not be al-lowed to tell people what to do. But if the government is perfect, then it can."
I can see her the future speaker of the house or at the senate very eloquent , intelligent and engaging
Remember, the speaker of the house is third in line to the President, so if something happens to Biden and Harris the Speaker of the House becomes the next acting President. Neither McCarthy or Jordan are qualified for that.
The Republican voters of the USA have finally spoken up against McCarthy & its about time. When there is no more money from the USA billionaires Tax club donors in the Republican party chaos results even in their churches. Believe the best speaker of the Republican House for all the voters of the Republican party would be some person from the USA billionaires Tax club donors who run & rule the Republican party with Trump as their middle man. Without money the Republican party is dead & more chaos is on the way. They have control over the private IRS, Federal Justice Department, etc. Trump will never be charged with any Federal crimes (nothing yet after about 10 years - no real evidence yet) & will be the next President of the USA again. What more can a Republican voter want? Its now time for one of the USA billionaire Tax club donors to be their Speaker of the Republican House so the USA Supreme Court will not have to decide what bills will pass in Congress.
I wouldn’t let either of them walk my dog
She somehow seems to be far more intelligent than the younger GOP members of congress .
She's smarter than all the GOP members combined.
But then again my cat is also smarter than all the GOP members combined. It's an incredibly low bar to clear
Republican voters don't place a value on intelligence. Herschell Walker, MTG, Boebert are examples.
Somehow. Their cumulative IQ probably doesn't equal hers.
Wish republicans had someone like her. Just one. It would really help America. She's a lady. We all know what republicans have to offer as women. They have no lady's😳😳😳
Good interview ladies!
Even looking at the headline proves we live in a crazy world.
Problem is no one knows what McCarthy stands for including Kevin himself.
Actually, I truly believe they stand for " "themself" ! Me, Myself and I.
Kudos to Alex and Alexandria for raising the bar on the quality and depth of discussion well beyond simple talking points.
Problem is, for much of their public the level of discussion is too high. That's the complicated part in politics, I believe: acting at that superior level, but keeping communication at a level that most of your constituency still understands.
You mean like Loren & MTG, who are two worthless Representatives.
@@a0flj0 Agreed, however as an optimist, if we can get people to listen, eventually they get educated. That's how content works.
@@AldoDonnisto We don't yet have enough data on this. However, given how various bots released as part of AI experiments onto the Internet have evolved, when they were allowed to learn from the Internet, I'm not optimistic.
How’d you like to wake up to THAT voice every morning? 😂
Green and Bobert are green with envy over this woman / they wish they could be half as smart and articulate as she is .
They would need to finish high school first. 🥴
She's so happy, and I can't blame her one bit.
As far as I've seen her, she has two modes: Energetic and confident, and tired and confident ;)
She is so kind, well-spoken, intelligent, effective, and just downright caring. She makes me beam with hope for this country’s future. If there was ever any doubt in the Democratic party of her intentions or that she wouldn’t be an excellent member of congress… they simply must not have known her. She also made a super important point… Republicans can’t even do their job to select a speaker…………….. and as a result selfishly keeping them from doing the job they’re meant to be doing which is WORK FOR THE PEOPLE. They have such a cushy life and don’t get fired when they don’t do their job.. meanwhile the rest of us aren’t so lucky. Don’t forget that each and very one of them works for us and we pay their luxurious salaries and benefits.
She also has the power to make or break McCarthy.
Exactly
Well said and it is lost on many people.
I feel the same. I was just thinking - how nice it is to hear someone so well educated yet very much down to earth. I hope, I hope, I hope the country goes towards intelligent representatives.
Agreed. AOC is so graceful and smart.
We're now at the eighth ballot and nothing has changed. How long is McCarthy going to drag this painful event out?
I'm skeptical that 7000 boxes of pizza were delivered to McCarthy's office. Even 700 would a bit much.
What a privilege it is to see one of the most beautiful women in the world display her great genius and ability and matter to all in this time of America’s flawed democracy.
IMO, "JACQUELINE",
AND THEN YOU
DISPLAY YOUR
IGNORANCE TO THE WORLD BY PRAISING
EXACTLY WHAT IS
WRONG WITH
AMERICAN GOVERNMENT - TRULY PATHETIC !!!!!!!
PRAISING
@@lilalove1743 wow you are so smart. Do you take followers like any great cult hero? Trumpy friends? I just really need for someone to tell me what is wrong with me and literally anyone who understands actual democracy to help make the USA a better flawed democracy working its way down to utter fascist dictatorship. Perhaps you are my only truth, the way, and on speaking terms with the great sky faery speaking the sky fascist truth. I have been waiting all my life to be honoured by the one the great one the only one who will make me slave to your great master. Let me know that I am chosen.
Own me now. Tell me how to behave and who to lever my fealty to. I am waiting waiting and no amount of experience, work, or education that I have will stand in my way from your greater sense of self righteousness and bigotry.
Omg! Can we PLEASE get away from all this celebrity crap ? 👆 THAT is how we got Donald Trump! Can we not just stick to the fact that she REPRESENTS and serves her constituency well? It takes neither "beauty ", nor "genius "...
It takes COMMITMENT.
I was going to post, “You go, Girl!” But I think you stated that in a more respectful way. 😂
Down irresponsibly bad rn bro
Never under estimate the GOP's ability to F things up for themselves.
Yeah, it's a shame
and Americans by the millions to be proud of that.
The F things up more for the American people, while lining their pockets as they look out for the uber rich. 😒💙🇺🇸🕊
Wasn’t that Obama’s quote about Joe?! 😂🤣
The woke weakies and super rich have decimated this country and it’s shows in everyday life
