“Having a daughter does not make a man decent. Having a wife does not make a decent man. Treating people with dignity and respect makes a decent man” -AOC
Exactly. People can have their beliefs and ideologies without treating others like shit. The GOP has lost the respect of so many for their lack of mature behavior.
When you dress down a bully for vulgarity, you articulately eviscerate him with surgical precision. She was spot on! Hopefully, his wife and daughters also called him out.
@@kimcoates7569 she is so articulate and passionate and full of integrity that her generation with all their decency and compassion will eventually prevail over the misogyny, racism and outright Fascism that Trump and his 'base' represent, AOC and her generation of young articulate women so need to save America from sleep walking into the dystopian world promoted by Trump and his use of Fascist thugs to suppress peaceful protest.
Kim Coates Ha Kim first allow me to complement you on your well worded comment and can I just say I have longed to see the word “eviscerated” in a comment on Utube. I really like that word. Thank you Kim stay safe X
AOC has not only the qualities you list, but also she's down to earth and relatable to people (especially women in this instance - GOP women included, but also a lot of men who, after all, have sisters and mothers), which is different from the majority of politicians who are so disconnected from the people. You gotta imagine Rep. Yoho's wife and daughters will also see AOC's floor speech about their father. And Rep. Yoho's neighbors. How embarrassing for him. It's terrific.
But if Yoho someone say that to one of his daughters, he'd lose his sh*t, start a fight, and want an apology afterwards. So yeah I'd say he's a total hypocrite just like his leader.
trump has given voices for the most foul, vial and hateful people in our country which we must take away a positive from it because they have branded themselves as hateful angry insecure men in our country. We all know who they r now and can help them out of their positions of power once we have a human again in the office of the president.
Yoho says " im a man of my word". Not only is he NOT a man of his word but, he's not a man. He's a punk bully who got beaten by the person he was trying to bully.
Also, how would being a man of his word apply in this situation? The phrase is understood to mean "I do what I say I'm going to do" or "I keep my promises". When the Hulk smashes after saying "Hulk smash!" he's being a man of his word.
AOC is cute... but she says a lot of dumb shit. I agree... the right wing doesn't like her because she is way too progressive. Her demands for progressive reform tend to be a bit short sighted and lacking of the type of political finesse necessary to push the democratic ball closer to the goalline.. If this were a game of Football and AOC were the QB she seems to want to throw a "Hail Mary" every play. It's fun watching her nonetheless.
@Kris Moodley people hate her because she is a absolute female fireball. She will climb the political path so high with her ability too understand right and wrong. She is the future of America. Not that looks should matter but her natural beauty won't hurt. BTW have we commented together before.?✌
Mary, it is those old angry Republican evangelical men, some even young, most racists, she is brown, who still think the little woman should be chained to the stove!! For God's sake Pence calls his wife, "mother," an archaic term, from my day for men who married wives and quickly set about turning them into "mother!!" Take a good look at their side of the aisle, how many women and black people can you count on one hand?!!
When they ...the gop...spit out words like this to any women let alone a women in her position it is a slap in the face of democracy..this is horrible....sounds like the the gloves should come ..off
SHARON AND JANET. It really shows how commonplace it is in politics. He just got caught because he's apparently not bright enough to realize he's in a area with a thousand ears and cell phones. Old school disgusting politician.
He's like a guy who beats his wife then says I'm sorry I know God will help me live with this action. He doesn't feel that he needs to change anything. The Non-Apology.
Ddrhl It’s like once tRump turned up all the petty little dickheads came crawling out the woodwork. But the thing is these dickheads were always there an that’s a sad thing but after tRump as gone (NOVEMBER) these petty little dickheads will still be there and that’s the saddest thing of all
Embarrassment is a sentiment no longer present in the Republican party. They clearly tossed that over board a long time ago... together with honesty, empathy and modesty. Frankly, they got rid of nothing less than their souls!
Though she is not my Congresswoman, I am a proud NYer and give her so much credit. They have a problem with her because she is everything the Repubs are not. Bravo AOC!
Men of Yoho's kind can't help their behavior towards a young woman like AOC because she represents what they FEAR most; someone they can't bully, someone who dares to rise and openly challenges every corrupt racist and sexist and unempathetic policy they espouse in Congress and on FoxNews.
Damn I'm beginning to think trump has destroyed every Republican in his administration and not only does trump need to go but so does all his lap dogs!
I don’t understand how people are just realizing this. As she said, this is not new. All these frat boy, racist douche bags need to go. Oh and that low life talks about loving his god... a man of god doesn’t speak to women that way. Go check yourself senator Yahoo!
Not only is he incapable of owning up, he couldn’t be bothered to even look up as he was speaking. Hung his head and unconvincingly read his fake little statement. What a punk.
Owning up to anything would require some kind of conscience, and that is something that no Republican has or they wouldn't be a Republican. He's acting just like they all do. It's said that when someone shows you who they really are, believe them the first time. He has shown who he really is, and we should believe him. He truly is "a man of [his] word" and that is a damn shame.
If he could say such filth to a Congresswoman, imagine for a second what he would say to ordinary people. He is clearly a terrible human. Love and respect to AOC.
at my place of work you curse anyone out they walk you out that same day! they dont care how long you've been there or who you curse out delivery guy, maintenance personel or cleaning crew.
Like all hypocrites Doho wanted to put his family and religion out there as a shield to justify his wrongdoings. What he did was totally unacceptable for someone in his position.
As a former Floridian, I echo that sentiment. But Florida is ripe with extreme gerrymandering, voter suppression, and fraud. If you are in South Florida, vote for Jen Perelman to join the ranks of AOC.
I choked up too when she talked about her parents. AOC is an amazing public speaker. I am in awe of her bravery. Wow, Yoho is pathetic and his wife and daughters should be disappointed in him. Just disgusting!!
Im so sick of these fake apologies from these dumb politicians. Clearly he is threatened by an intelligent woman like AOC. He should be removed from Congress point blank.
Sean Steele there is a difference in how humans are treated though. While it’s wrong, its reality. And women suffer this sort of thing all the time. That this event even took place means that on some fundamental level, he felt it was ok, then hid behind having daughters in an effort to justify it. Her entire speech addressed sexism specifically. That is why I appreciate it as a woman. No, no human should. I simply appreciate the specificity of this as it relates to sexism.
Sean Steele I will continue to appreciate this specifically from the perspective of a woman who has dealt with this sort of treatment from men. No, no person should have to be denigrated by another. But AOC was commenting specifically on the sexism directed from men to women. That does not imply all men are sexist. All she said was she had suffered such treatment from other men. You are free to continue feeling it extends beyond that, but I connect to this message on a personal and more specific level having spent my entire life experiencing what she is addressing.
If he treats his fellow congresswoman this way how does he treat the women in his family or are they worth more then AOC? A lady of true class. Hats off to you and this Republican will vote with the blue wave in November.
Loyce Holland These days are the last gasps of the good ole boy network. Good riddance. I have no doubt that he speaks to his wife the same way in anger.
My person to admire, I'd vote for Einstein, AOC is closer to Frankenstein, she was created is a college Intersectionality lab and released by mad leftist professors protected by tenure that only talk to each other and cannot know the harm they do.
Truly inspirational. A speech that an experienced politician would be proud of but for this to come from a 1 term congresswomen from a working class background is incredible.
It proves god doesnt make u good. Which is common sense anyway. Most atrocities ever commited by man are in the name of some god. Good ppl are good in spite of this, not because of it.
Lolly Lolly totally agree. For hypocritical Yoho to use God as an excuse for his misogynistic behaviour is also truly disgusting! I say this as the bible says multiple times that “There is no inequity in God and God is not a respecter of PERSONS” for a reason. Which is why the NT says, “There is no bond or slave, there is no Jew or Greek, there is no male or female, we are all one in Christ Jesus” so it always upsets me when people like Yoho use God to justify their hatred of strong women, people of colour and especially the LGBTQ+ community because they also refuse to accept that the Natural Born Eunuchs which Jesus said are BORN eunuch who are sprinkled all across the bible as hero’s are represented by the LGBTQ+ community today.
After just listening to his "apology" all he has done is make one excuse after another. He is a disgrace and a poor example of a what representative should be.
Did he just realize that AOC has bigger balls(female speaking ofcourse)than him,that's why he is choking up...such bully mentality,they always weep when they are owned..
The fact that she was able to get under their skin so much to the point they called her what they did shows that she’s right in what she fights for. They are scared of her
Second worst. Worst one I have ever seen was the woman who was convicted of threatening black children with a gun at an eight year old’s birthday party who said in tears (at her sentencing for this very act after pleading guilty), “I’m not the kind of person who would do something like that, this isn’t who I am” when asking forgiveness from the boys mother. Yes you are you did do it. Really annoyed me that the mother graciously accepted that non-apology as society expected her to.
How the hell is that even considered an apology? He never even mentioned his personal attack on her instead just pulled out the 'poor me' card and tried to sound weepy, but mostly just sounded whiney about his 'hardships' before he was in office. Once upon a time being poor and struggling does not excuse being a self righteous a**hole now.
People generally don't like change, but it's the one thing you can count on. People like Mr. Yoho aren't able to recognize the need for change. AOC is.
this minimum age rule is juvenile. the POTUS should be the most capable person who has the most/best support. They could be 15 years old it shouldnt matter. She would be a great POTUS now. who's better?..seriously?..
This ten minutes she took to point this egregious congressman's act was HIGHLY IMPORTANT & very valuable. I bet we won't see another cowardly rethuglican try that on her again!! She stood up and let the world know it was NOT OKAY, and we will not accept this as normal in this hellish administration! 💪🏾🌊
well he knows that stunt put the final nail in his coffin for November...only reason why he tried to apologize ..once out of office what can he do for his donors? you know fossil fuels , big pharma etc
In fairness to Yoho, he has a good teacher. In an interview with Trump, Howard Stern once referred to Ivanka Trump as 'a nice piece of ass' and all Trump did was laugh it off. Like begets like.
I like that she compares Yoho to a drunk dude she tossed out of a bar. She has had and continues to have the power to speak for all women who have been called those same words or worse. And she has the courage to call him out for his lame apology. His "apology" was worse than his original words towards her.
She's a breath of fresh air, although I'm sure people like Me. Yoho don't see it that way. I think it's time for a change in our government. Our system is okay, but it doesn't work as well as it should. To start I think there should be term limits in both the House and Senate.
I'm not convinced he knows better. I think it is all some of them know. They don't believe woman should be their intellectual equal, and fear women will make them irrelevant. Which isn't the case, but some are also greedy and don't want to share equally. Woman have been marching for 100 years, and they still will not sign the womens equality act.
she's different, there are many strong, educated, well spoken women...she has more than that. she has an unwavering sense of responsibility and accountability along with dogged determination.
Because it was. Hell, he was smirking for most of the first half before his attempt at a cry-take a d then randomly claiming he wouldn't "apologize for loving his god, country, and family." If my eyes rolled back any farther, they'd have completed a full lap.
I agree; it was the "apology" of a truculent brat; the hubris of the Republicans is always staggering, another reason to never vote for them or give them power.
Inde nmc -Call me a cynic; I have a hard time believing his poverty story. He paused to long and never made eye contact, as he tried to make it seem as emotional as possible. It was, classic gaslighting from a narcissist.
I'm still astonished that grown men feel that it's acceptable to speak to a woman in that way. Their mothers must be so proud. Good for AOC for presenting such a calm, intelligent response.
@@benblasdell4769 Men who treat women this way were taught to treat women this way. They grew up in household with subserviant mothers and chauvinistic fathers.
It’s funny how he has to read from a memo he wrote , while the young intelligent congresswoman spoke from the heart. You dnt need his apology sis . No you dnt Your on the right side of history. Keep speaking truth to the power.‼️
true though we all need to be a wuss and put down our verbal swords and just have a conversation everything is a discussion - AOC me me me just like the guy
That's their charm if you will. Minimize or change perspective. They have at least two answers for anything 180 from each other. Liar used to be called just that. Now they explain it away. You prove it then
2024. Vote Biden, blue down ticket. Vote by mail and vote early. Biden is giving the country two gifts. The first is to unite the country by repairing the damage Trump has done domestically and internationally. The second thing he will do is allow the time for the next generation to get ready for 2024. He's a one term president and has said that. Take advantage of the gift given. Vote blue.
The only people pleased with Yoho's performance wave Confederate flags, thump on Bibles they never read and shriek about their Constitutional right to not wear a mask in this pandemic.
She should start now. Sure, the Constitution says you can't be president until 35, but it doesn't say you can't start *campaigning* to be president before 35.... She needs to start her campaign as the youngest and female president right now!
Yep. I like to think I raised strong daughters. I hope I have the opportunity in my life to vote for her as President. I'm an independent and would vote for her in a heartbeat.
She attacks like a TIGRESS. Some men can't handle her. Even if off base with something, look how damn young she is . She will be a political powerhouse in 10 years.
Ted Yoho should concentrate to his own son criminal record of DUI and resisting arrests , Tyler Marlin Yoho (30) is a drunk driver who his daddy had to bail out several times .
Yes she is a great speaker. Her cadence of speech reminded me of Obama! She spoke from her heart and laid the scenario out intelligently. I'm proud of her.
I was raised that an apology requires saying "I'm sorry for.......", specifically stating what it was that I had done, and why it was wrong for me to have done it.
I'm so proud that when my son saw this, he said, what man behaves that way? Who talks to another human being like that? Didn't his parents teach him anything? You never talk to a woman or call her names like that! Thank you Jesus! He was listening all these years 👏🏼
“Having a daughter does not make a man decent. Having a wife does not make a decent man. Treating people with dignity and respect makes a decent man” -AOC
Yoho, you been bitch slapped!
You got that one right, Armando. They tremble at the sight of successful women of color! Mother fuckers!
I don't trust someone who professes their love of a god BEFORE their love of their family.
Exactly.

Also, how would being a man of his word apply in this situation? The phrase is understood to mean "I do what I say I'm going to do" or "I keep my promises". When the Hulk smashes after saying "Hulk smash!" he's being a man of his word.

Most of the dad I know (including mine) are garbage in one degree or another

They’re clearly upset and jealous you’re not stuck in the Trump cult like they are.
The 1s that arnt in the cult are hostages to it. Damn shame
Hey, these assholes chose their path. Only someone very screwed would do that.
Vote like your life depends on it.
This year, it does.
Aoc he is jealous because you won again
She's got something that Ted Cruz doesn't have, it's called a backbone
Well you know how the ted cruz saying goes. Say something about his wife and he will lick your other ball lol.
My person to admire, I'd vote for Einstein, AOC is closer to Frankenstein, she was created is a college Intersectionality lab and released by mad leftist professors protected by tenure that only talk to each other and cannot know the harm they do.
@@mplaw77 put down the pipe.
They both had something in common! It’s pussi!
@@mplaw77 Aren't you precious...maybe stop watching Pox Propaganda, their Conspiracies, Lies and outright 🐂💩are showing through
She kicked his ass. Way to go AOC. Such a class act.
Truly inspirational. A speech that an experienced politician would be proud of but for this to come from a 1 term congresswomen from a working class background is incredible.
No she's brilliant, and well spoken-without anger. I just love her.
It’s always God when they decide to “apologize”. As if that excuses you. No it makes you a hypocrite!
Yeah. It's always God and the flag that gives them the excuse to be a passionate Neanderthug.
It proves god doesnt make u good. Which is common sense anyway. Most atrocities ever commited by man are in the name of some god. Good ppl are good in spite of this, not because of it.
Lolly Lolly totally agree. For hypocritical Yoho to use God as an excuse for his misogynistic behaviour is also truly disgusting! I say this as the bible says multiple times that “There is no inequity in God and God is not a respecter of PERSONS” for a reason. Which is why the NT says, “There is no bond or slave, there is no Jew or Greek, there is no male or female, we are all one in Christ Jesus” so it always upsets me when people like Yoho use God to justify their hatred of strong women, people of colour and especially the LGBTQ+ community because they also refuse to accept that the Natural Born Eunuchs which Jesus said are BORN eunuch who are sprinkled all across the bible as hero’s are represented by the LGBTQ+ community today.
They use God speech Because gullible people fall for it....
bingo...that's the Republican party for you...the "party of god"...
Yoho read his "apology" statement so fast lol. He couldn't wait to get out of there and go back to being his true disrespectful self.
After just listening to his "apology" all he has done is make one excuse after another. He is a disgrace and a poor example of a what representative should be.
His behavior must have not surprised his wife and daugthers. They surely have heard it at home. Pathetic.
What a class act AOC!
He is not apologizing to anyone, he is making an excuse to hurt and behave badly. He should be voted out of his position!
Did this guy just pretend to choke up? Damn animals being elected
He's not crying because he feels remorseful. He's crying because he got caught out.
Crocodile “tears”
You got it, disgusting, horrible man, imagine electing a Yahoo like this.
@@katestevens86He was shedding mother-in-law tears.I believe in the US they are referred to as crocodile tears.
Did he just realize that AOC has bigger balls(female speaking ofcourse)than him,that's why he is choking up...such bully mentality,they always weep when they are owned..
That’s right!! This lady is kicking ass and naming names!! AOC is the Real Deal!!😁
The fact that she was able to get under their skin so much to the point they called her what they did shows that she’s right in what she fights for. They are scared of her
That has got to be the worst half-assed apology I ever heard.
This is probably the worst "apology", if you can even find the will to call it that, that I've ever heard.
Second worst.
Worst one I have ever seen was the woman who was convicted of threatening black children with a gun at an eight year old’s birthday party who said in tears (at her sentencing for this very act after pleading guilty), “I’m not the kind of person who would do something like that, this isn’t who I am” when asking forgiveness from the boys mother. Yes you are you did do it. Really annoyed me that the mother graciously accepted that non-apology as society expected her to.
@@jessicascoullar3737 Yes, it was. I would've tore her to shreds if I were the mother. She could've kept that weak apology.
Shenita Gazaway it was years ago and I am still angry about it.
Shenita Gazaway it was years ago and I am still angry about it.
Once you say something along the lines of "oh, you just misunderstood what I said", it's no longer an apology.
So basically: ‘I apologize that you are offended’ ‘I have a wife and two daughter so I can’t be sexist or disrespectful’
Ignorant man.
The "I have a black friend" excuse of misogyny
@@gabybiz6089 👏👏👏 Well said.
wildman that was an incredibly ignorant remark
@wildman What?
She's just , just outstanding. Not a bully can stop her.
He's right she is dangerous. Stupid man! Yoho? Doesn't even have sense to change his name.
@@beverlyantoniou8236 How is she dangerous? Can you elaborate? (also yes 'yoho' is not a name, it's the beginning of a pirate song lol)
@@Druzica18 meaning she's a woman to be reckoned with.
@@beverlyantoniou8236 AH okay, that is definitely true!
How the hell is that even considered an apology? He never even mentioned his personal attack on her instead just pulled out the 'poor me' card and tried to sound weepy, but mostly just sounded whiney about his 'hardships' before he was in office. Once upon a time being poor and struggling does not excuse being a self righteous a**hole now.
AOC represents change and them old fogies should be scared..she's sharp, energetic, a fighter and is self made..a true American..
She is awesome!
People generally don't like change, but it's the one thing you can count on. People like Mr. Yoho aren't able to recognize the need for change. AOC is.
@@auntiejen5376 true
aoc will turn 35 in october 2024. i doubt she will run for president, but if she makes the choice to do so, i will happily vote for her.
this minimum age rule is juvenile. the POTUS should be the most capable person who has the most/best support. They could be 15 years old it shouldnt matter. She would be a great POTUS now. who's better?..seriously?..
She definitely has my vote as well.
I am sure the Democratic party sees her as their rising star and the future of their party.
I would vote for her in an instant!
No question about it. Me too.
@@timn4481 no age matters. When your young you think it doesn't but you hit 40 and you realize its a factor.
This ten minutes she took to point this egregious congressman's act was HIGHLY IMPORTANT & very valuable. I bet we won't see another cowardly rethuglican try that on her again!! She stood up and let the world know it was NOT OKAY, and we will not accept this as normal in this hellish administration! 💪🏾🌊
You are a threat and you make them scared! Let them hate and keep kicking their butts! Thanks you for all that you are ❤️
He is a pathetic human being - that’s not an apology, it’s a puppy cry for sympathy...
well he knows that stunt put the final nail in his coffin for November...only reason why he tried to apologize ..once out of office what can he do for his donors? you know fossil fuels , big pharma etc
Good for you better than that
*Talk to my daughter like that and he will get knocked out!*
By your daughter I hope!
okuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrr
@@xxx-il9dv then he gets knocked out twice.
In fairness to Yoho, he has a good teacher. In an interview with Trump, Howard Stern once referred to Ivanka Trump as 'a nice piece of ass' and all Trump did was laugh it off.
Like begets like.
@@GeraldHarris-cf2zh one good punch deserves another!
Republicans better get used to AOC, she’s gonna be there for a very long time*
Sure hope so.
An intelligent and strong woman that is why Yoho feels threatened and endangered. AOC you put him in his place.
I like that she compares Yoho to a drunk dude she tossed out of a bar. She has had and continues to have the power to speak for all women who have been called those same words or worse. And she has the courage to call him out for his lame apology. His "apology" was worse than his original words towards her.
Obviously in Yoho’s world women don’t talk back so he wasn’t expecting this. No he knows better.
She's a breath of fresh air, although I'm sure people like Me. Yoho don't see it that way. I think it's time for a change in our government. Our system is okay, but it doesn't work as well as it should. To start I think there should be term limits in both the House and Senate.
Yes! Now yoho knows better.
I'm not convinced he knows better. I think it is all some of them know. They don't believe woman should be their intellectual equal, and fear women will make them irrelevant. Which isn't the case, but some are also greedy and don't want to share equally. Woman have been marching for 100 years, and they still will not sign the womens equality act.
Your so right ,men have treated woman this way for centuries! This is a major problem in this society
He picked the wrong girl 🤬🤬 she's Latina with don't take shit from nobody💪💪💪 I'm proud of Alexandria ❤❤❤🥰
So poised and eloquent...a wonderful example of a strong, educated woman
she's different, there are many strong, educated, well spoken women...she has more than that. she has an unwavering sense of responsibility and accountability along with dogged determination.
As a man, I feel I must apologise for such a low character. Bravo for your very intelligent and telling speech.
they just don't like her, cuz she didn't have to buy her way thru school, OR sleep her way to the top.
Yoho’s “apology” sounds so fake. Stand strong AOC!
Because it was. Hell, he was smirking for most of the first half before his attempt at a cry-take a d then randomly claiming he wouldn't "apologize for loving his god, country, and family." If my eyes rolled back any farther, they'd have completed a full lap.
@@FakingANerve I agree with you on that. What an absolute coward.😠
I agree; it was the "apology" of a truculent brat; the hubris of the Republicans is always staggering, another reason to never vote for them or give them power.
It's not an apology. It's excuses 😑
The problem with some old guy is can't stand a strong and indepent women.
"I will not apologize for my passion!" Pretty sure Ted Bundy said the same.
For a moment I was thinking Al Bundy, and I was confused. I get it now!
He was on foodstamps living off our backs. Now that he is a congressman? He's still living off of our back.
That he even dares evoke God after behaving against the very teachings of the Christ! What a hypocrite!
He's a Republican...what did you expect?
Thank you AOC. Not only for standing up for yourself, but for every time you stand up for the citizens of the USA
Margaret Thatcher once said when your opponents resort to personal insults it shows they have lost the argument.
@@geoffpoole483 So Trump never had an argument to begin with.
What is it about confident women of color that rattles white men to their core???
You go girl!
Watched her whole speech, it was brilliant. If only we had more AOCs in congress.
Don't worry, this is normal among the Rupublicans.
No, we should always be worried about republicans.
@bb Most of them are proud of him.
We need to call it out and make clear to people that this is not acceptable.
Inde nmc -Call me a cynic; I have a hard time believing his poverty story. He paused to long and never made eye contact, as he tried to make it seem as emotional as possible. It was, classic gaslighting from a narcissist.
I'm still astonished that grown men feel that it's acceptable to speak to a woman in that way. Their mothers must be so proud. Good for AOC for presenting such a calm, intelligent response.
They act like they have no mothers.
Quoting someone on twitter "Tune this in, because AOC is now playing handball with Yoho’s cojones."
Grown men? That's a Republican politician, they are more akin to spineless worms than people.
Their would slap them in the back of the head and send them to their room
@@benblasdell4769 Men who treat women this way were taught to treat women this way. They grew up in household with subserviant mothers and chauvinistic fathers.
An inspiring and strong woman .. keep it up and shake their racist grounds
It’s funny how he has to read from a memo he wrote , while the young intelligent congresswoman spoke from the heart. You dnt need his apology sis . No you dnt Your on the right side of history. Keep speaking truth to the power.‼️
All the "honorable" members of the GoP say their speeches like this.
I'm sure he begrudgenly had a lacky write it for him.
Written words , that are most likely pre-approved by their legal team , unbelievable
You are awesome ❣️!!!!!!
He doesn't even have the decency to name his "colegue from New York". What a POS non-apology that was
You represent the people of America Madam Congresswoman. Fight for our Rights and we are so proud of your Voice
She is talking for every woman in this country.
yoyo has got to gogo😄
I've been harassed and raped.
Men need to KNOW that this
IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.
I hope millions of Americans will support Alexandria and progressive movements!
It's disgusting how some people can still treat people that way
To call what he did to her as a “conversation”. What a wuss.
true though we all need to be a wuss and put down our verbal swords and just have a conversation everything is a discussion - AOC me me me just like the guy
That's their charm if you will. Minimize or change perspective. They have at least two answers for anything 180 from each other. Liar used to be called just that. Now they explain it away. You prove it then
Well done lady, you are amazing.
You are so right it is cultural, and learned hate. How dare he, speak to you like that.
She'd have my vote if she ever runs for president!
Mine too! I wish we had a candidate like her for our next German election.
I cant vote. But I can tell you if you did vote for her the world would clap.
She will have my vote too. I think she will be old enough by 2024 to run for president!! I hope so !!!!
@@ritaritter5073 by like 1 month she'll be old enough!
2024. Vote Biden, blue down ticket. Vote by mail and vote early. Biden is giving the country two gifts. The first is to unite the country by repairing the damage Trump has done domestically and internationally. The second thing he will do is allow the time for the next generation to get ready for 2024. He's a one term president and has said that. Take advantage of the gift given. Vote blue.
Yoho: We were on food stamps.
Also Yoho: Votes to kick people off of food stamps.
Shouldn't he be terminated? How is this allowed and acceptable where millions have witnessed this poor behavior right at the Capitol?
Exactly!! If you or I said that to a fellow employee we would be fired so fast...
And from the White House!
Welcome to Trump's America
It's called Trumpism. If the president can do it, so can anyone else.
Translation:
“I cannot apologize for being a misogynist and attacking a woman with finger pointing and foul language.”
She was brilliant! She spoke with true grace and dignity 💖
This speech was so powerful, thoughtful, and emotionally intelligent.
Yoho was trying to make his master trump proud, but all he did was make a fool out of himself just like trump does on a daily basis!!
You are soooo right!!
No respect...the republican way
Vote blue get these racist hitler wannabes out of our government 4 ever. trump first
The only people pleased with Yoho's performance wave Confederate flags, thump on Bibles they never read and shriek about their Constitutional right to not wear a mask in this pandemic.
And continues to make your entire country look bad
@@mainely8007 Power to the people!!! Speak your truth and mine too!!!!! Thank you!!!!
I can't wait until AOC put her bid in for President in the future.
She should start now. Sure, the Constitution says you can't be president until 35, but it doesn't say you can't start *campaigning* to be president before 35.... She needs to start her campaign as the youngest and female president right now!
Ocasio-Cortez/Obama (Michelle) 2028!!!
Yes....Yes.....Yes
I love this woman. She is everything I would like my own daughter to be like when she grows up.
Well said ..so do I
I have three daughters 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Yep. I like to think I raised strong daughters. I hope I have the opportunity in my life to vote for her as President. I'm an independent and would vote for her in a heartbeat.
She is a classy women and represented herself very well and professional. Something republicans fail to do
Amen!
She attacks like a TIGRESS. Some men can't handle her. Even if off base with something, look how damn young she is . She will be a political powerhouse in 10 years.
Ted Yoho should concentrate to his own son criminal record of DUI and resisting arrests , Tyler Marlin Yoho (30) is a drunk driver who his daddy had to bail out several times .

@@pete_lind is he really???
She didn't read from anything, it happened the day prior. She spoke from the heart. She is a great orator, the like of obama honestly
Yes she is a great speaker. Her cadence of speech reminded me of Obama! She spoke from her heart and laid the scenario out intelligently. I'm proud of her.
real men sees his actions as a cowardly dog! real men and women need to vote this cancer out of office! there is no justification for his behaviour!
I was raised that an apology requires saying "I'm sorry for.......", specifically stating what it was that I had done, and why it was wrong for me to have done it.
Good policy..
That's exactly how I make my kid apologize, with the addition of stating that she will make it mean something by not allowing it to happen again.
I'm so proud that when my son saw this, he said, what man behaves that way? Who talks to another human being like that? Didn't his parents teach him anything? You never talk to a woman or call her names like that!
Thank you Jesus! He was listening all these years 👏🏼
Great job with your son. Reflects on you.
Sounds like your Son was raised by one smart Mama! Thank you, ma'am.
Believe me he does his wife like that also. Abusers can never admit their wrongs only make excuses.
Just like tRump.
Yoho should be impeach and remove from Congress. He's a public servant and doesn't deserve this job.
