      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 …

      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.

          The guy who can't engage in any substantive discussion without a paragraph's worth of preamble and equivication calling out AOC for imprecision is too sweet.

          Somehow you're the only one that thought she meant Iran! CNN didn't even think she said that and going around w headlines saying AOC believes Iran is goading us into war! That would have been plastered all over CNN!

          You’re creating a higher standard to her because she’s so visible. They all say these vague things. She has exactly how much decision making power here? What everyone heard is that she is anti-war. Eyes on the prize.
