      Iran is trying to goad *us*? You sure it’s not the other way around? Isn’t flying a giant surveillance drone in/around their territory a bit of a “goad”? Beginning to question AOC’s proficiency for effective political communicationhttps://twitter.com/thehill/status/1141850579683164165 …

      People are saying she’s referring to the Trump Admin, not Iran. That doesn’t make sense. The Trump Admin is trying to goad “us” into conflict? Who’s “us” in that formulation? At minimum it’s unclear. Maybe be precise with your language when discussing potential military conflict

          I’ve seen multiple people tweet the clip with the same interpretation. Don’t blame me because YAS QUEEN can’t construct a sentence clearly when discussing prospective war

          She was asked about "the handling of Iran". So, in her response to that question, "they" clearly refers to the ones "handling" Iran (i.e. the Trump admin): She clearly thinks they're goading us (i.e. the public) into supporting the war they clearly want.
