Some have tried to demonize the gentlewoman from New York who does, in fact, bring the intellect, the passion, and the focus on issues surprisingly that the gentleman mentioned yesterday in his non-apology. All the men on this side of the aisle are supportive of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and all of her sisters and all of her mothers as well. {time} 1115
