NEW: @RepChipRoy is calling on @AOC to apologize over her comments earlier today to @SenTedCruz (his old boss).

Of course, Roy is not going to say exactly what that means, but I think we all know this is a physical threat against her.
I am not sure at what point there is going to be an assassination attempt against AOC, but I’d say that I think it is more likely than not in the next two years.
These are horrible times. And the Republican leadership is completely fine with all of it.
