Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) is telling her supporters to prepare a resistance against President-elect Donald J. Trump after he retook the White House in the 2024 election, winning both the popular vote and the Electoral College. In a video posted to social media after the November 5 election, the New York Democrat claims Trump and his allies are an authoritarian threat and alludes to the armed resistance movements against Europe’s fascist governments prior to and during World War II.
“We are about to enter a political period that will have consequences for the rest of our lives,” Ocasio-Cortez says. “We cannot give up. We now find ourselves in a time in history that has precedent, and we find ourselves, I believe, in a time where there are, let’s say, peers in history, of mass movements of people that mobilize to protect one another in times of fascism and authoritarianism. And this is the era we are poised to enter. ”
