Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., recently revealed she’s worried former President Trump would throw her in jail if he wins the November election.
Ocasio-Cortez spoke with podcast host Kara Swisher for her show, “On with Kara Swisher,” which published the interview Thursday.
They touched on the power of technology corporations — including Ocasio-Cortez’s “tangle” with Amazon and tech moguls’ conservative fundraising — Israel, artificial intelligence and the upcoming presidential election.
“I mean, it sounds nuts, but I wouldn’t be surprised if this guy threw me in jail,” she said. “He’s out of his mind. I mean, he did his whole first campaign around ‘lock her up.’ This is his motto.”
Ocasio-Cortez said she takes Trump “at his word.”
“I take him at his word when he says that he’s going to round up people. I take him at his word when he threatens journalists. I take him at his word,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “I feel like what we saw in his first presidency was an amuse-bouche to what his intentions are. He has learned from his mistakes of appointing professionals, and he will not make that mistake next time.”
Trump said during a recent interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity that critics saying he would seek retribution were wrong.
“Number one, they’re wrong,” Trump said. “It has to stop, because otherwise, we’re not going to have a country. Look, when this election is over, based on what they’ve done, I would have every right to go after them, and it’s easy, because it’s Joe Biden and you see all the criminality, all of the money that’s going into the family and him, all of this money from China, from Russia, from Ukraine.”
Swisher asked the New York Democratic lawmaker if she thought Trump really had a chance at winning the election...

Considering she funneled money from her campaign to her boyfriends checking account she should be worried
That’s what happens when you remove the requirement that you commit a crime to be called a felon. Before you did that you were safe because nitwittery was never a crime.
Democrats are trying to convince me to vote for Trup. I already am.

Feb 2, 2021 — On January 4, Representative Ocasio-Cortez left the Capitol to find Trump militants at her car, yelling at her.

When Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was barricaded inside her office during the Capitol insurrection on January 6, she not only feared that mob would kill her, but that she would be raped if the rioters found her.
“I didn’t think that I was just going to be killed,” Ocasio-Cortez told CNN’s Dana Bash in “Being…AOC,” the first episode of the new CNN series “Being…” that airs Monday night at 9 p.m. ET. “I thought other things were going to happen to me as well.”
Asked if that belief was driven in part by her experience as a survivor of sexual assault, Ocasio-Cortez said past traumas weighed on her mind as she hid.
“Survivors have a very strong set of skills. And the skills that are required as a survivor, the tools that you build for resilience, they come back in right away,” Ocasio-Cortez said in an interview in her district in June. “And for me, I felt like those skills were coming right back so that I could survive.”
She also traced the feeling back to what she described as the “misogyny and the racism” that “animated” the “attack on the Capitol.”
“White supremacy and patriarchy are very linked in a lot of ways,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “There’s a lot of sexualizing of that violence.”
Ocasio-Cortez first shared in February that she had been sexually assaulted years earlier. Her revelation in an Instagram Live video came less than a month after supporters of former President Donald Trump stormed the Capitol, breached security, and began to wend their way through its halls in search of lawmakers.
She is so fortunate someone only wants her locked up. She has absolutely no idea after all she has said and done.
She has gotten pretty rich in the House with the resume of a bartender she’s done plenty to be scared of.
AOC is now added to the list for investigation.
Democrat power of projection is amazing
Did she do something to get her sent to prison? Or is she a paranoid delusional psycho?
She’s too useful to Trump as and where she is.
She’s an asset, not a liability.
It would help if Trump said that. Set the cat among the pigeons.
Trump announced that service tips will not be taxed under his presidency. AOC can go back to bartending and rake in tips tax free.
Idiot Drama Queen.
She’s wants to make it all about her.
Mentally ill New Yorkers typically roam the streets.
Sometimes they get elected to office and live like Napolean the Pig.
This is the left’s new narrative. “Trump might look for revenge and do to us what we did to him! Accountability should be off the table”
Their plan is to insist that even after what they have done, in order to return to normalcy, they shouldn’t have to pay a price. Remember their mantra after the election of 2016? “Leave Hillary alone and let’s return to our principles and normal procedures for the good of the country”. The GOPe members who deliberately got close to Trump to push that plan abandoned him once he agreed.
They ‘play that tune’ every time.
Romney and Ryan will agree. It will be Jimmy Carter’s dying wish.
“She’s an asset”
Two letters too long.
Sandy has a stellar career as a bartender/waitress to fall back on! I don’t see why she’s worried. Just quit now Sandy, before that SCARY President Trump is back in the White House! BOO!
Or maybe she can be a stay-at-home Mom? I see she’s actually engaged to some idiot...
What is she worried about? What crimes, beyond treason, has she committed?
The absurd histrionics of the common bar fly.
Unlike Biden, who has no mind to be out of.
She has a brain? Who knew.
