WHY should any child - or American - be AFRAID of an elected 'Servant Of The People'?
WHY would any politician Tweet to a child and tell them that they should be AFRAID of her?
CJ Pearson, the teen Internet star/activist on the internet who goes back and forth between supporting conservatives and Liberals, was Tweeting during the State of the Union Speech.
In one Tweet he comments about AOC constantly talking to a woman next to her, a woman he does not know.
".@AOC has been talking this entire speech and the woman next to her keeps trying to look the other way ????.

To Pearson's surprise, 'the woman' Tweeted a response to him.
"Hi @TheCJPearson, I'm not "the woman sitting next to her". @AOC and I -- and millions like us -- are the future of this country. And you're right to be afraid of us. But you should learn my name. https://t.co/frL8ikNDcV

...ok, that's a little CREEPY! She actually 'threatened' the child, told the child they had a reason to be afraid of an elected federal politician.
That is not MY OPINION - That is the same way 'TWITTER' felt ... and THEY responded back to D-NY Velázquez:
"You do know that @thecjpearson is a minor right? You sound like you are threatening a minor...

"United States Citizens should NEVER fear politicians. This tweet is deeply disturbing.
— Julie Betts (@JulieLvsPACKERS) February 6, 2019"
"Wow. You had an opportunity to introduce yourself in a diplomatic way. Instead you chose to let citizens know we should be afraid of you. Not to mention on a night when POTUS was calling for unity.. literally right in front of you. Who are the divisive ones again?? ??
— Allie Mass (@AllieMassengale) February 6, 2019"
"This tweet is disturbing... An elected official who demands that they be feared is an elected official who should never have been elected in the first place.
— Lady Porch ?? (@TheMrsPorch) February 6, 2019"
"Threatening the constituency? Who are you, Joseph Stalin? Oops. You probably don't know who that is.
— Amy R (@LittleHawaii) February 6, 2019"
Etc......
Unfortunately it seems D-NY Velázquez suffers from the same problem as does AOC - major attitude and speaks without thinking 1st. She had an opportunity to introduce herself to the teen and chose instead to Tweet a 'threat' / 'warning/ instead.
Pearson Tweeted back that he genuinely didn't know who she was and told her that perhaps if she worked harder more Americans would know her name.
With there being 435 members of Congress 'working harder' probably won't help many people outside of her own Constituents to get to know her....BUT INTRODCING YOURSELF BY THREATENING A CHILD IN A TWEET IS A REALLY GOOD WAY TO MAKE SURE EVERYONE KNOWS YOU...AND NOT IN A GOOD WAY.
(In her defense, I / we do not know if she has faced insults and criticism - especially sexist or 'socialist' or whatever, but it sounds like she was a rather 'defensive'. She just need to remember to work on her PR / People skills and to always be 'pleasant', especially at 1st....until it's time to stop being so 'pleasant'.)
Seriously? This Dem Rep Just Told a Kid He Should Fear Members of Congress
