Trump unloads on Ocasio-Cortez over impeachment comments

President Trump unloaded on Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) on Tuesday after the prominent Democrat suggested Trump’s decision to bomb Iranian nuclear facilities was grounds for impeachment.

Trump unleashed a lengthy post on Truth Social from aboard Air Force One as he traveled to the NATO summit in the Netherlands, attacking Ocasio-Cortez’s intelligence and daring her to follow through on her impeachment threat.

(snip)

Trump went on to attack Democratic Reps. Jasmine Crockett (Texas) and Ilhan Omar (Minn.).

He also appeared to refer to Ocasio-Cortez as “The Mouse” and suggested she take the same cognitive exam he took as part of his annual physical exam and is used to test for cognitive decline.

I saw the lengthy Truth Social post on BlueSky and thought it was bizarre I looked for an article that mentions some of the contents.

And no--she wouldn't take the, "cognitive test," you did--it would be an actual one.

very synergistic/compounded hatred...

It goes beyond white supremacist leanings or even maternal resentment. The man is really really sick and he is inciting similar "passions" in his incel base.
