President Trump ruthlessly jabbed at Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) Thursday for fumbling an appearance at last weekend’s Munich Security Conference — saying it could end her presumed interest in succeeding him.
“There was one young, attractive woman, she was unable to answer questions, and she didn’t do so well like [Vice President] JD [Vance] did in college,” Trump said in a speech to Board of Peace members.
The Bronx and Queens lawmaker’s appearances in Bavaria went off the rails this past Friday when she gave a sputtering response about US policy toward Taiwan and wrongly said Venezuela was “below the Equator.”
“AOC, she was unable to answer a simple question, and she could have said, ‘Well, I’m studying it, and I’ll report back to you next week,’” Trump said Thursday.
“You know, you can get away with that, but she just went, ‘Uhh, uhh …’ I think it could be a career-ending answer,” the president said.
“For 25 years, anybody running against her — I think [White House Chief of Staff] Susie [Wiles] is going to use that little piece of stuff. It was not good, it was not good. That was not a natural.”
Later, as he traveled aboard Air Force One for a day-trip to Georgia, Trump told reporters that the self-described democratic socialist was “stupid.” --->READ MORE HERE
Send her back to geography class!
Map-challenged democratic socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez — who famously claimed to be “a Bronx girl” even though she grew up in the swanky Westchester suburbs — was blasted Thursday by a former classmate for wrongly claiming Venezuela sits below the equator.
Assemblyman Matt Slater (R-Putnam), who went to high school with the 36-year-old congresswoman, called out her latest “social studies” flub.
“I’m sure the Social Studies Department at Yorktown High School is just as embarrassed as everyone else that their most famous student has failed geography on the world stage,” Slater told The Post Thursday.
The socialist superstar made the embarrassing Venezuela gaffe at the Munich Security Conference in Germany last weekend.
While trying to showcase her foriegn policy chops, Ocasio-Cortez inadvertently gave the South American country a new spot on the globe.
“[Nicolas] Maduro canceled elections. He was an anti-democratic leader,” Ocasio-Cortez said of the recently nabbed former Venezuelan president.
“That doesn’t mean that we can kidnap a head of state and engage in acts of war just because the nation is below the equator,” she said, while sitting on a panel at the conference.
Ocasio-Cortez — who majored in global studies, but could apparently use a refresher course — was hundreds of miles away from being correct. --->READ MORE HERE
