‘He Is A Criminal!’ AOC Calls Trump Everything From Rapist To Stock Cheat In Rally Speech
‘He Is A Criminal!’ AOC Calls Trump Everything From Rapist To Stock Cheat In Rally Speech
Are she and Sanders the only politicians in the United States actively opposing Trump? I keep searching for news of others taking a stand, but it appears only those two are doing so openly.
Trump has crossed so many lines but I really do not see any outcry, mass resistance or opposition?
Illinois governor JB Pritzker is openly opposing through legislation and trolling. He held a mock press conference stating that Lake Michigan was now Lake Illinois and went to the zoo to negotiate with penguins on tariffs. California governor Gavin Newsom is suing the Trump admin over tariffs.
There were also coordinated protests across the US a couple weeks ago. Every town hall held by Republicans is a complete zoo, so much so that certain reps fear for their life and have stopped holding them.
Federal workers are leaking musk directives and doing their best to stall the doge squad.
Just because Trump hasn't been removed one way or another from office doesn't mean that people are doing nothing.
I really want to see more headlines like these, it's easy to feel like nothing is being done.
Al Greene, Jasmine Crockett, Tim Walz, and Saikat Chakrabarti. When Trump starts to openly murder American citizens, I expect many fired military leaders will suddenly be leading National Guards.

Be mindful not to mistake suppression of dissent with lack of dissent. News media is actively avoiding protests. We’re out there, even if the news cameras aren’t.
We are all aware the media/news companies are owned by the billionaires who want to control the narrative, why do ppl forget that and start saying stuff doesnt matter because it hasnt hit the news
Also Jasmine Crockett, though she doesn’t have the name notoriety AOC and Sanders do.
She's brilliant & one of the best communicators I've seen in years.
That's because he controls the media.
The guy from the Circle Jerks just called for an army of Luigi Mangionis while on stage at Coachella, so there's that
Check out Al Green and Cory Booker.
Exactly how are they "opposing Trump."
Bernie voting yes on Marco Rubio should be all anyone needs to know about Trump's "opposition."
Seems that way, yes people are starting to protest but not nearly enough, and as another commenter mentioned the media is not covering it, which should surprise no one.
The Democratic party needs to be laying out the facts when the CiC lies to the people, but nope they seem to be just sitting back sulking saying "see we told you this would happen and since you didn't vote us in we're not going to do shit"
And she's right.
I support this message. Hope she doesn’t get deported.
She will 100% but maybe that what need to be so a real revolution start because the peaceful protest don't do shit to stop fascist
Too bad people couldn't be bothered to vote last year.
We have no idea what a peaceful protest of significant size can do. We've never seen one.
We've seen peaceful protests, sure. And some not-so-peaceful ones. But non-violence is really difficult to manage and wield.
She will 100%
Why are people up voting random bullshit like this?
There is not a 100% chance, and if there was, we wouldn't know about it.
Its almost always people who insisted no problems existed when Biden was in office though.
AOC should team up with Blue State governors to campaign solely in their states, with their protection. Trump WILL try to dispose of her, it is only a matter of time. Having a state's National Guard to protect her from Dogey goons will be key to allowing AOC to continue working against the regime.
Oh if AOC is touched by that fucking scumbag will be the moment people riot. If not only the left but potentially some of the right who are fans of her as well, or at least fans of her energy (some have said they dont agree on policy but like how she really stands for working class families). I feel like as much as we cant really touch Trump (he would die a martyr for hard right nationalism) if the other side touches AOC the same thing happens but for the cause on the right side of history.
I really hope I get to vote for her for president someday.
Me too. Unfortunately, I feel like she's in a not great position when hits start flying, putin style.
I fear for her safety. I hope she stays safe.
How long before she ends up in El Salvador?
Inappropriate assessment. I fear for everyone's safety. Constitutional freedoms and the rule of law protected everyone. Removing them is a double edged sword that puts everyone at risk.
This is as stupid as saying "all lives matter" after seeing a BLM sign.
Obviously everyone's safety is at risk right now, and in the near future. The og comment wasn't saying "screw everyone else, save her!" They were simply wishing for the safety of one of the most outspoken, and therefore vulnerable people actually making a difference in this situation.
Inappropriate assessment
Good point... I was under the impression that I was only allowed to fear for one person's safety at a time 🙄
are they going to impeach and remove him!!!
he's literally violating court orders from unanimous supreme court orders.
if they don't impeach, remove, and jail him (I'd rather he be sent to CECOT) they are all complicit.
Luigi the senators
She's not wrong.
Yes AOC, he is. We all know. Some pieces of shit Americans however earnestly did not give a fuck clearly.
I have nothing to say that's constructive but I also have nothing to do to fill the void.
None of this is false is the thing. He's literally a criminal. He literally gave out a massive stock tip before reversing direction on tariffs again…
There are also those 34 felony convictions. And the civil court finding that he raped a woman.
Yup. It still boggles my mind that none of that was enough to make Republicans think twice about voting for him.
Now that he's impacting them financially? Oh noes! I might not vote Republican again! 🙀
But of course, it's way too late now and we'll be lucky if we even have another election at this point.
And TREASON! He is literally the most prolific traitor in American history. Not just that, but he is a worse traitor than ALL other American traitors COMBINED!
Any discussion of his criminal activities should lead with the undeniable FACT that he is a Traitor.
Good point, yes. I really should have started with that…
Aren't the confederates from the us civil war considered traitors? And most of them were racist slave owners?
Trump has spent longer at rallies spewing insults at his personal and political enemies. The difference is that she is angry and fired up about justice and genuine love of country. Oh, and everything she said is actually true.
It's true but hollow. Dems are never going to have as strong a hand as they had in 2021, when Biden was taking office with an open hand and a liberal-friendly bureaucracy.
The government that Trump leaves behind in his second term is going to be gutted and its institutions slaved to whatever technocracy Musk and Thiel can cobble together in the next four years. You're not going to have a DOJ capable of prosecuting an ex-President or an FBI capable of investing one or a court willing to rule against one. And that's assuming we still have an election system capable of replacing him or his party.
AOC's truths are too little and too late. She should have been out there rallying a crowd to scream this shit in Biden's ear back when it mattered. She should have been holding firm on "Defund ICE" back before they were snatching people off the street and shoving them in El Salvadorian prisons.
That's the real difference between her and Trump. He spent eight years building a real active reactionary fascist movement. Meanwhile, I don't see any AOC-Stans storming the capital in the next four years.

She was. Turns out nothing you do matters if the entire media apparatus is conspiring with the other side.
You don't even know what you wish would happen. First you say there's no way that the Democrats can recover, which ignores the obvious truth that perhaps they could, and also opens up the option that a legitimate party could possibly replace them. Second, you suggest that storming the capital is a good idea, but if that's the case it doesn't really matter what happens in the polls, because we're already moving towards anarchy, right? Third, if you want to get together a group of people and storm the capital, I think you're going to end up in the morgue very quickly. The cops up there do not like people like you, they will be happy to take down people like you.
OK doomer. There’s still a lot more of us than these crooks, and just one was necessary to scare them.
“The Dems” is only a party label, which has and will mean something different to different times. The most difficult task ahead is re-earning governmental legitimacy and global trust, which can only happen if we fix everything in our system of government recently demonstrated to be dangerously outdated, broken, or useless. I’m fairly certain that’s the only way back. That scale of reform will require a public mandate and will leave no party label intact. AOC could lead that charge, and may not need to run as a democrat ever again. We may not even have a two-party system by the end of it.
But getting anywhere requires first steps. The easiest way to not see reform is for those who would fight to give up hope. I know it’s easy to get discouraged in dark times. It is OK to feel discouraged, but spreading that despair among allies when it’s time to fight is not. That is selfish wallowing that only serves the enemy.
Well he fuckin is.
No lies detected.
Please don't get taken out.
Her and Bernie just had the largest political rally in Idaho since 08 Obama...
The people don't want trump
But the people don't want a shitbird neoliberals either.
For the vast amount of Dem voters, there's gonna be at least a 20 year gap between them being able to vote for something rather than just to stop a Republican.
Luckily we finally kicked the "moderates" out of DNC leadership for this first time since Jimmy Carter, longer than most of us have been alive they've had control to the detriment of America.
The reason mainstream media is finally ok with criticizing Dems. Is the neoliberals aren't in control anymore. So now the billionaires want Dem voters to fight the DNC.
Because billionaires no longer control the DNC
at least a 20 year gap between them being able to vote for something rather than just to stop a Republican.
If they can't do it twice in a row, what's the chance of 5 in a row?
He is all that and more
About FUCKING time.
She's been saying it since 2016. It's just that nobody's reported it until now.
He's probably shitting his diapers in impotent rage lol Imagine all the ketchup being thrown.
Keep it up AOC and Bernie!
Direct video link
Thank you, that website annoyed the hell out of me
AOC needs to find her Saiyan Rage and go full speed at Trump
She needs to talk about rope.
Good go off queen!
Good. Speaking the truth
She’s not wrong. But she should be careful. She has a Hispanic-sounding name and brown skin. Key demographic to get deported (without trial) to a concentration camp ala’ trump.
EDIT: I didn’t mean “be careful” as in “don’t say these things,” I agree with you all-she should DEFINITELY say these things. I mean “be careful” as in “don’t walk to your car unattended, answer the door without checking, talk to police, or take any meetings with someone you don’t know.” - that sort of careful.
I'm actually happy that she's willing to take the risk.
We wouldn't be here if more people had taken risks before now.
Looking at you judge Juan Merchan. Capitulation doesn't protect you from fascists.
We need more people prepared to not be careful. Being careful means acquiescing to oppression in silence. Real resistance means taking risks.
I didn’t mean “be careful” as in “don’t say these things,” I agree with you -she should DEFINITELY say these things. I mean “be careful” as in “don’t walk to your car unattended, answer the door without checking, talk to police, or take any meetings with someone you don’t know.” - that sort of careful.
I don't think she should be careful. If anything, being as loud as possible and staying in the public eye is what all Democrats should be doing. Because if they do start deporting people that actually speak the truth everyone will know when and how it happens. You can't hide it and they can't effectively make a move against her that won't be seen by the entire world. And I think it's a sign that we all need to start doing this. If we're loud and seen instead of raging behind our phone screens it's a lot harder for people to just disappear.
Exactly. We are in this mess because the Democrats and the media immediately declared an obviously rigged election to be "fair & square" the moment it was over. Being smug about the "peaceful transfer of power" was more important to those weak cowards than protecting America from being destroyed by vicious Nazi traitors.

She's literally part of the organizations that should be taking action. It's not supposed to be our job. Senators and representatives are the ones paid to be the checks and balances. The bar has been set so low now that someone in the government saying what is going on is wrong is seen as a win. The bar is buried underground at this point.
it's tripping hazard in hell, but democrats have convince everyone that it's okay because it's a dry heat.
It's not supposed to be our job.
We are the managers. And, well, we've been pretty slack.
It's not supposed to be our job.
Too much buck pushing in the good ol USA. It is, in fact, our civic duty to be active citizens that hold our elected representatives accountable. Our continual evasion of this responsibility is a large part of what landed us here.
It wouldn't surprise me to learn that a large portion of the "not our job" folks were the same ones wholly blaming the Russian people for not hanging Putin in the town square.
We've lost all sense of duty and honor in favor of the almighty dollar in this country. Yes, our representatives should be holding Trump accountable, but we the people voted his tired, rapist ass back into office.

Fuck that fearmongering shit.
AOC rocks, and everybody who talks like her rocks.
if she is detained and deported i will literally disown every relative of mine in the US if they dont actively riot.
She needs to be DEPORTED for Hurting Trump's FEELINGS!
-Fuck Your Feelings NOT SNOWFLAKE Republicans!
He is indeed
If enough people could have believed this when we were shouting it back in November, she would have had to say this.
What a babe
In fact, if she was president, she'd be called Baberaham Lincoln.
What’s insane is that 99% of their country isn’t agreeing with her lol.
I’m fully expecting a plant to be elected in 2060. Probably a hydrangea.
anyone else find it concerning that discussion of the purpose of the second amendment will get us banned from this and most other websites?
I find banning to be a massive issue with online platforms in general these days. The shit I’ve been banned on Reddit for is wild to me. I’d say it’s about 60% just a disagreement in POV, nothing more. Go to a sub about lawns and tell them grass sucks and it’s just instaban.
No one wants to hear anything that runs contrary to their beliefs to the point they almost shutdown.
I can’t feel any of this does any good for our species, but here we are.
