      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 …

      Question: "Do you have any concerns about the handling of Iran right now?" Rep. @AOC: "Yeah -- I think they're trying to goad us into a military conflict that's completely irresponsible." pic.twitter.com/CRuNf481U3

      This administration needs to put down its saber and pick up a phone. Diplomacy is what grants us peace and stability - not war. #NoWarOnIran https://twitter.com/nowthisnews/status/1141829479981047809 …

      The word “goad” makes no sense in the original comment if she was referring to the Trump Admin rather than Iran. I’m glad she favors diplomacy but the original statement was not clear. It’s a subject that you really need to be precise about with your language.

          Michael, she was literally walking into a meeting and this was a five second bite. We’ve all been imprecise with our language when it was a split second reaction. She’s on the right side. I just think the standard you’re setting is way too high here.

          She’s a politician with a massive platform discussing prospective war so the standards are appropriately high. I’m not “canceling” her or denouncing her.

          Was pretty clear here ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ so maybe its also about listening to the question before hand? Just a thought ;)

          How is there any confusion about this? Her answer doesn't exist in a vacuum. Wth?

          It makes prefect sense. She’s talking about goading the public into supporting war by purposely getting that drone shot down.

          It makes complete sense. Why would the questioner ask how IRAN is "handling Iran"? He would have said "how is Iran handling this situation?" It was clear to me that he meant US in OUR handling of THEM. She's answered clearly and correctly.
