AOC Says People Don’t Have to Take President Trump’s Executive Orders ‘Seriously’ Because ‘It’s a Joke’

‘We don’t have to listen to him’

EXCERPT:

OCASIO-CORTEZ: “Today, the Trump administration -- and also last night -- the Trump administration signed a bunch of illegal executive orders. For example, Donald Trump tried to sign an executive order to end birthright citizenship in this country, which is part of the Constitution. It is day one already trying to shred the foundational documents of American society and try to end birthright citizenship, which basically, as we know, if you are born in the United States, you are a United States citizen -- that remains, that is the law, that is the Constitution. And -- and he just tried to sign a piece of paper saying -- trying to say, no. We don't have to listen to him. It's illegal. We don't have to treat this seriously. It's a joke. And that's not to say that what they're trying to do isn't serious, it is serious, but we should not consent in advance.”
