Pelosi: AOC Has Been a ‘Star’; She Is Eloquent and Forceful

‘And she gets along very well with Hakeem Jeffries’

RUSH EXCERPT:

PELOSI: "No, I’m pleased with it. I’m glad she’s here. You know, they canceled our house trip, the the bipartisan trip. The speaker canceled it like an hour or two before we were supposed to leave. But some of us managed to get here anyway. All I said to people say you have this tent. We didn’t have any attention. All I said is, if you want to be a legislator and pass bills, it’s important to have the votes to do it. It doesn’t help to go online and criticize the people that you want to have, because they’re not as progressive as you are. She’s been a star, eloquent, forceful and the rest. And she gets along very well with Hakeem Jeffries. They have a New York connection, but I’m so glad she’s here. And the other members who are here, Sarah jacobs is here."
