Maybe AOC 'identifies' as being present and that is her truth.
AOC gloats she’s ‘very present’ in NYC— while her constituents complain she’s AWOL https://t.co/i8BVgoj56I pic.twitter.com/2Mp9q4WaYO

WASHINGTON — Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez boasted in a new interview that she’s “very present” in her Bronx and Queens congressional district and that “it’s not unusual” for her to be spotted walking around — despite constituents telling The Post they’ve seen little of their “rockstar” rep.
“In national conversations, people see one thing, but at home, what people experience is my presence,” Ocasio-Cortez, 35, told Rolling Stone.
“I’m very present in New York. It’s not unusual for me to be walking down the street in Jackson Heights or in the South Bronx or in Astoria, and people see me and they have eyes on me.” The congresswoman, known by her initials AOC, even likened her presence in her district to President Trump’s frequent rallies during the 2024 campaign. Earlier this month, The Post ran a profile of Ocasio-Cortez in which her constituents and home-district supporters described her as AWOL while she and Sen. Bernie Sanders (i-Vt.) travel the country preaching democratic socialism as part of their “Fight the Oligarchy” tour.
Her district is a hell hole. She screams about the climate while simultaneously flying around on private jet at the cost of $235,000 in the first quarter. She’s a fraud.

She's also a hypocrite.
Is that……a Nazi salute?

We are reliably told anytime a person stretches their arms, it is. The Left made the rules.
To be fair, her constituents voted her in, so their intelligence is a bit suspect.

Or a bullet proof vest.
I grew up in Elmhust which is in her district. My mother still lived there until a few years ago. I am at a loss what AOC has done for her district. In a place thar is almost all Latino and Asian immigrants, why is this rep's #1 issue Gaza

She doesn't have that much pretty privilege.
She's absolutely useless to her district.

Her constituents still vote for her, so she can do as she pleases.

She knows another Democrat wouldn't dare to challenge her and she knows her district is so reliably blue she just has to show up on the ballot.
AOC spewing bovine scat propaganda from her sphincter as usual...typical of a liberally indoctrinated "useful idiot" of the Democrat/socialist/communist persuasion

Like her comrades, she is all talk and no action.
