AOC Upset After Elon Pokes Fun at Her

Representative Ocasio-Cortez attempted to defend herself on Twitter after Elon Musk made a tweet saying, “She’s not that smart.”

The Tweet was made in response to AOC equating the ongoing immigration crisis to those coming legally to America through Ellis Island.

She’s just not that smart

Fox News has more on the story:

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., slammed billionaire Elon Musk on social media after he insulted her intelligence Wednesday.

In response to the billionaire and Tesla CEO that the congresswoman is “not that smart” for comments she has made recently, Ocasio-Cortez responded in a forceful post touting her accomplishments.

It began when Ocasio-Cortez mocked House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., playing off a social media meme of “girl math,” where people use bad math to justify spending habits, by saying, “Boy math is needing 15 attempts to count the votes correctly to become Speaker and then shutting down the government 9 months later.”

In response, conservative influencer Ashley St. Clair shared a clip of AOC in which she argued that the numbers of legal immigrants who traveled to Ellis Island, New York, around the turn of the century “far eclipsed what we’re seeing now” in terms of the current migrant crisis.

How did AOC respond to Elon’s comment?

It’s not a well-thought-out response, that’s for sure.

I wasn’t born rich and became the youngest woman in American history to be elected to Congress.

Then I investigated Cohen, authored the largest FEMA funeral assistance program in history and led creation of a US Climate Corps to create tens of thousands of new jobs.

Stay mad 💁🏽‍♀️ https://t.co/EDsPGs8Bx6

She doesn’t spend any time refuting anything in the thread.

And people were quick to call her out on it.

Nothing you just posted refutes his claim.

She says, “stay mad,” as if she isn’t the one upset at Elon.

The New York Post has more on the story:

The Tesla boss has a history of trolling Ocasio-Cortez on social media.

Last year, the mogul responded to her tweet about “some billionaire with an ego problem” by joking: “Stop hitting on me, I’m really shy.”

“I was talking about Zuckerberg but ok,” Ocasio-Cortez shot back at Musk, referring to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, before deleting the response about a minute later.

Elon knows how to get under the skin of AOC and the rest of her squad.

She has been reticent after her tweet.

She must know that she can’t win!
