Dan Crenshaw Slams Ocasio Cortez for Absolutely Shameful Holocaust Comment

As we mentioned, Alexandria Ocasio Cortez has come under fire for some pretty shameful comments comparing migrant detention centers to the Holocaust.

Despite this, she continues to double down.

According to Daily Wire:

On Monday night Ocasio-Cortez said during a live Instagram video, “The United States is running concentration camps on our southern border and that is exactly what they are. They are concentration camps. And, um, if that doesn’t bother you, I don’t, I don’t know, I like, we can have, okay whatever.” She also alluded to the Holocaust by adding the words “Never Again,” blathering, “I want to talk to the people that are concerned enough with humanity to say that we should not that ‘Never Again’ means something and that the fact that concentration camps are now an institutionalized practice in the home of the free is extraordinarily disturbing and we need to do something about it.”

On Tuesday morning Ocasio-Cortez tweeted, “This administration has established concentration camps on the southern border of the United States for immigrants, where they are being brutalized with dehumanizing conditions and dying. This is not hyperbole. It is the conclusion of expert analysis. And for the shrieking Republicans who don’t know the difference: concentration camps are not the same as death camps. Concentration camps are considered by experts as ‘the mass detention of civilians without trial.’ And that’s exactly what this administration is doing.”

“Expert Analysis.”

What makes one an “expert,” exactly?

And for the shrieking Republicans who don’t know the difference: concentration camps are not the same as death camps.

Concentration camps are considered by experts as “the mass detention of civilians without trial.”

And that’s exactly what this administration is doing.

This is PATHETIC. So basically “yeah, these are TOTALLY concentration camps – but not what you’re thinking of. The “EXPERT” definition. Duh!”

She has deflected Liz Cheney’s criticism by spewing some nonsense about how Liz was using the wrong “language.”

It was clear that this was nothing more than a pathetic attempt at diverting attention.

I wonder, then, how she plans to get out of this one:

Clearly I need to explain that, in concentration camps, people are unjustly sought out and confined.

This isn’t what is happening at the border. Migrants are illegally crossing our border. Most are asylum seekers, thus pending trial, so your expert definition doesn’t apply. https://t.co/gE6kaj7jGz

Your comments reveal total disregard for our sovereignty & a deep ignorance that belittles the horrors of the Holocaust.

If you’re worried about conditions at the border, why don’t you do something about it & support @RepMikeRogersAL’s bill securing billions in humanitarian aid?

BINGO.

Does she truly not get it? Or is it just easier for her to entirely ignore this and keep digging her heels in?
