Meh. I love me some AOC, but this dig feels a little beneath her. I'm all good with attacking people's personal failings, but where one places in a sports competition doesn't really fit that. I'm honestly a little disappointed. Hopefully, this is just a minor aberration, and she gets back into form.
where Gaines placed in a sports competition is precisely relevant and needed to be pointed out. perhaps you're suggesting the way it was done could have been more polite?
but... why? when they are actively seeking out eradication why do you insist that being polite about facts is important?
5th place in the NCAA national championship? Yeah that's still quite an accomplishment. It is impressive.
