AOC suggests supporters make list of posts from 'Trump sycophants'; faces backlash

Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Friday faced heat for urging her supporters to create an archive of online postings by “Trump sycophants” who may later regret their affiliation with the president. Taking to Twitter, AOC asked if any of her followers were archiving social media posts from supporters of President Trump to be used later as evidence of their "complicity" during his time in the Oval Office.

In another tweet, the lawmaker ridiculed Republicans for portraying themselves as the “party of personal responsibility”, yet getting upset at the idea of having to acknowledge their role in Trump’s administration.

Republican Rep.-elect hits back at AOC

Hitting back at AOC, Republican Rep.-elect Marjorie Taylor Greene argued that the New York sophomore socialist would "force Chinese-style censorship on the American people" if given the opportunity.

Ocasio-Cortez, who has been at loggerheads with Trump during her two years on Capitol Hill, easily claimed reelection to Congress on Tuesday night and is well-positioned to be among the most powerful figures in the Democratic Party in a Biden administration.

Meanwhile, Trump's reelection campaign is already mounting a number of legal defenses in key battleground states, including Pennsylvania and Nevada. Additionally, efforts to count the vote have stretched over a number of days.
