Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortezs first speech from the House floor has set a minor record with C-SPAN.
Ocasio-Cortez slammed the Trump Administration over the partial government shutdown in her remarks. A C-SPAN tweet of her nearly four-minute speech garnered 1.16 million views in a little more than 12 hours, setting a record for the most-watched Twitter video from the outlet of any remarks by a House member, according to a tweet from Howard Mortman, C-SPANs communications director.
By Friday morning, it had surpassed 2.3 million views, with more than 13,000 retweets and over 46,000 likes.

As long as our bullet headcount > their head count were good
People know she can be comedy gold, most just checking for any of her famous gaffes.
Thats it?
I thought libs were so enamored with the most qualified. I guess theyre back to articulate TelePrompTer readers/puppets, but now have a girl.
Those bot servers must have really gotten hot working as hard as all that.

BULLSH## creating an idol once again, Find a nitwit that don’t shut up and knows nothing and lie. Wonder if she to will be getting the Nobel peace prize like zippy the a##clown before he even did anything and in 8 years he held true he did nothing
I’m hoping O’Keefe and his outfit get an interview w/ the team behind this fraud.
At her college wasn’t she known, as Amtrak, or did Willie Brown give her that name?
Those eyeballs...I wonder if she got goosed by a cattle prod at a young age.
It's like what happened in this relatively small State Rep district. She'd have my vote if the alternative is someone of the Romney/Jeb/PaulRyan/Kasick ilk.
Number of people watching breaking a record is not necessarily a positive. I would bet that a large number watched for comic relief and to see how many time she said stupid things or how many times her facts just were’nt supportable. She has a history of both.
Actually, it is 4.6K likes....that is 4,600, not 46,000
“substance” — LOL. Nice!
To her credit (very hard for me to say), she actually had a good delivery. There were no Obamao “ums,” “ers,” “uuuhhhhs,” “all wee-wee’d up,” or “speaking Austrian.” No “like he went” or “you guys” or “Trump is a mutha-f....” Just a well delivered speech.
Somebody has been coaching her well on public speaking. I know I would be scared sh!tless speaking on the floor of the house for the first time.
The fact that she can deliver a decent, short, somewhat tempered speech on the floor of the house is (I think) bad news. She is going to pick up new adherents.
Nobody gets where she is at by accident. I would like to know who is propping this twit up.
No telling how many on our side watched just to stay totally informed - and maybe come up with some funny videos to post - mocking her...
