In Clay’s own words:
“It was such a weak argument to say she was being picked on and that four women of color were being picked on by the speaker. It shows their lack of sensitivity to racism. To fall back on that is a weak argument. It has no place in a civil discussion.”
Finally, Clay stated that certain House caucus members need to “mature.”

Earlier today, Ocasio-Cortez responded to claims that she’s playing the race card against Nancy Pelosi. The congresswoman branded these assertions as “stupidly untrue.” Unfortunately for her, there are many Democrats who believe otherwise.
Thus far, Ocasio-Cortez has not publicly responded to sources who referred to her as a “fraud” and a “nobody.”
