AOC Says Trump ‘Should Look in the Mirror’ When ‘He Talks About Rapists and Criminals’

 

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) told President Donald Trump to “look in the mirror” when “he talks about rapists and criminals” during a rally with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) on Monday.

Protesting the trading of stocks by sitting members of Congress, Ocasio-Cortez said, “We saw it just happen with Trump’s corrupt and disastrous and rushed tariff scheme. We saw Marjorie Taylor Greene buy that dip. I got one question for her, how much did you make? How much did you make off of people’s despair?”

She continued, “No more! We can’t accept it. I hope we see now that it was all about manipulating the market so that he could quietly enrich his friends who bought the dip before reversing it all in the morning.”

The congresswoman went on, “This is a matter of fact. Donald Trump is a criminal who was found guilty of 34 felony counts of fraud! Liable for sexual abuse! Or course he’s lying and abusing and manipulating the stock market too! When he talks about rapists and criminals, he should look in the mirror!”

Ocasio-Cortez concluded, “But back to stocks, to be clear, I don’t care what party you are, Democrat or Republican. It doesn’t matter how powerful one is or the position that one holds, members of Congress holding and trading individual stock is wrong. It is corrosive, it is destructive, and it needs to be banned.”
