AOC feels ‘disrespected' over Orange Man's reference to AOC
2020-10-25
[NYP] Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez lashed out against President Trump for repeatedly referring to her as "AOC" during Thursday night’s presidential debate, saying the nickname — which she has promoted since launching her political career — is only reserved for her constituents.

Trump twice referred to the Bronx-born congresswoman in response to a question about climate change and the economy.

"If someone told me 3 years ago, while I was waitressing to help my family stay afloat, that in a few short years an unhinged President of the United States would be repeatedly saying my name at the 2020 debate, I would’ve brought them some water and told them to sober up," she tweeted Thursday night.

She then railed, "AOC is a name given to me by community & the people. Y’all can call me AOC.

#11  Man, my memory is going...who was the dude with the schnoz and big eyes in many Mel Brooks' works? Imagine if AOC had such a schnoz...probably would never have been a waitress.

#9  C'mon, you get plent of respect. Didn't they make a doll of you, complete with googly eyes and an open mouth? You shouldn't take it personally just because the head is hollow.

#5  Oh, and she suddenly clammed up about those sexual harassment against Joey as well (to her credit, one of the very few on the Left to address it). But, so has the Right, so maybe the allegation was rubbish after all?

#4  Keep her family afloat? Didn't she attend Boston College or something? That and living in Bah-ston ain't cheap.
