'What claim will you have? That you rule over a destroyed society? That the ashes belong to you? Let me give you a sneak peek, you will never be president. You will never command the respect of this country, never,' Ocasio-Cortez said.

'And you should resign, and so should every member of congress who voted to overturn the election results because they would rather cling to power instead of respect our democracy,' she said, adding that the only viable future is the US being 'a multiracial democracy,' and insisting that white nationalist violence could not be 'voted away overnight,' without accountability.
On her livestream, Ocasio-Cortez said that during the insurrection, she did not feel secure in the safe room, concerned that QAnon and white nationalist adjacent colleagues knew her location and 'would create opportunities to allow me to be hurt, kidnapped.'
The congresswoman added that she was confident that the House would pass articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump, and said in order to convict him, they would need to gain more support.
'Maybe you should vote to impeach him because he's an active threat to every single American,' Ocasio-Cortez called out to GOP colleagues. 'Maybe you should just do it because it's the right thing to, instead of what you can build a freaking email list off of.'
