“Squad” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Monday blasted former President Donald Trump’s packed event in Madison Square Garden as a “mini Jan. 6 rally.”
“This was a hate rally,” Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) said Monday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” “This was not just a presidential rally. This was also not just a campaign rally.”
“I think it’s very important for people to understand that these are mini Jan. 6 rallies. These are mini ‘Stop the Steal’ rallies,” she added, referencing Trump’s organized protests against the 2020 presidential election results.
“These are rallies to prime an electorate into rejecting the results of an election if it doesn’t go the way that they want,” the Bronx Democrat claimed.
