OP
And we know that Representatives like AOC are sharp as tacks and won't fall for his BS.

That is why he says those stupid things.

He has a duty to promote the general welfare, when he took an oath. Lying to constituents to mislead and confuse is not honoring his oath.

I sometimes think that AOC and some of the others get a little ahead of themselves, but we need more like them in Congress. They are fearless.

(1,469 posts)6. As a Texan, I am again embarrassed by his posturing.
I hope he is expelled. My fear is his replacement who will be chosen by Gov. Abbott. If Abbott would have been on the 2020 ballot, I doubt that he would have won. His handling of the pandemic has been abominable. So, no high hopes for a senate selection.
