AOC Delivers Word Salad at the Munich Security Conference

EXCERPT:

OCASIO-CORTEZ: “There have been many leaders who said we will go back, and I think we have to recognize that we are in a new day and in a new time, but that does not mean that the majority of Americans are ready to walk away from a rules-based order and that we’re ready to walk away from our commitment to democracy. I think what we identify is that in a rules-based order, hypocrisy is vulnerability. And so, I think what we are seeking is a return to a rules-based order that eliminates the hypocrisies around, when too often in the West, we look the other way for inconvenient populations to act out these paradoxes. Whether it is, you know, kidnapping a foreign head of state, whether it is threatening our allies to colonize Greenland, whether it is looking the other way in a genocide, hypocrisies are vulnerabilities and they threaten democracies globally. And so, I think many of us are here to say we are here and we are ready for the next chapter.”
