In an era when the White House has been confused with a royal palace and executive orders wielded like kingly decrees, AOC's pointed reminder about the meaning of being a public servant cuts through the gold-plated pretensions: "I find it revealing when people mock where I came from, & say they're going to 'send me back to waitressing,' as if that is bad or shameful. It's as though they think being a member of Congress makes you intrinsically 'better' than a waitress. But our job is to serve, not rule."
