    I bet AOC appreciated the police a little more after that day, regardless. Still want to defund them?

      Didn’t watch the video, but such a fear for, say, her or Pelosi doesn’t seem unreasonable.

      How do you think Trump would fare in a leftist mob already excited to violence?

          I haven't watched/read too much but didn't AOC say people were yelling "WHERE IS SHE?!?!" and the whole point of Mace's post is that couldn't have happened if no protesters were even in her building? Case closed on AOC's drama.

                    She hasn't dropped nearly enough IMO.

                      Yes she is. Plus she's an incompetent menace. Biden must purge her and the other Jacobins from the DNC. If they don't they will try to primary her since Sanders days are over.

                        I would not bet on that, any more than I would bet the Trump effect is now eliminated. The personalities may go but the driving forces behind them have not.

                          As Clint Eastwood famously said, "man's got to know his limitations." AOC could easily have made a more measured commentary - and it would have been fine. "Even though I wasn't in the Capital itself..."

                          This rings a lot like Hillary's famous run across the tarmac dodging bullets. Great story for friends after a few drinks at the bar - but not something you share publicly.

                                    I hesitate to call her a 'menace' -- unless you count the risk of being annoyed to death.

                                    Oh, but wait. I'm speaking from my old viewpoint, when I believed that most voters had common sense and at least a smidgeon of independent thinking. I figured she would be removed forthwith in the next election because, I mean, look at her. I would never have predicted her second win.

                                    Shows you what I know.

                                    So yeah, these days Democrats and Republicans both are apt to elect a rabid rhinoceros if it had its party affiliation painted on its hide. Plus she's just so cute n' everything.

                                      I was thinking of menace in terms of an expression my friend the horse trainer used to say:

                                      "There's nothing more dangerous than an idiot armed with a little bit of knowledge."
