House Dems are reportedly drafting a resolution condemning Rep. MTG for comparing mask mandates to the Holocaust.

Maybe they should also include … @AOC? After all, distasteful Holocaust analogies are kind of her stock-in-trade.

@AOC “Words matter,” she says in congratulating herself for these analogies

@AOC Or what about co-Squader @RashidaTlaib, who offended the Jewish community after saying the Holocaust gives her a “calming feeling” because of the role her ancestors played in “trying to create a safe haven for Jews”

It’s also a bit rich for the media to claim offense at MTG’s comments; after all, “Trump literally equals Hitler” basically encapsulates their coverage from 2016-2020.

These "Trump = Hitler" comparisons were literally taken from a single episode of Morning Joe

.@AOC also invoked a Holocaust remembrance poem to attack Trump for going after Rep. Omar’s controversial 9/11 remarks
