It’s quite rare you see a journalist actually grill a Democrat, particularly on his/her hypocritical partisanship. On CNN’s The Lead with Jake Tapper Thursday afternoon, the host repeatedly pressed outspoken Democrat congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to answer for inflammatory comments she’s made recently about the border and the Trump administration, which have largely escaped media scrutiny.
But the best moment by far was the deer in the headlights look she gave when Tapper called her out on her hypocrisy about immigration policies under President Obama:
"Using that definition there were also concentration camps under Obama and under Bill Clinton. That's in the story you retweeted. So did you call them concentration camps at the time, when Obama was president?" he asked.
Ocasio-Cortez fumbled for an answer, at first claiming she was ignorant, then claiming she did call out Obama at the time too. So...which was it?
“Well, at the time I was working in a restaurant,” she began, addding, “but I do -- I absolutely was outspoken against Obama's immigration policies and the detention of families then. I think it's a remarkably consistent position.... I'm here to speak truth to power.”
It's OK to be wrong. Just don't go full Hondo. Never go full Hondo.
