Ocasio-Cortez suffers social media gaffe by criticizing photo of ‘GOP’ politician who is actually a Democrat

FOX: One of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s, D-N.Y., tweets seemed to backfire on Thursday when she tried attacking Republicans over a picture of a politician stood next to a cardboard cutout of her.

“GOP: Let’s pose our older male members next to cardboard cutouts of young female legislators,” she tweeted. Her tweet included a post from the Republican Party of Kentucky. However, the politician pictured was Democratic Rep. John Yarmuth, Ky., not a Republican as she claimed.

Ocasio-Cortez later deleted the tweet but not before critics pointed out the gaffe on Twitter.

“It literally says in the tweet that she is quoting that Yarmuth is a Democrat,” writer Ryan Saavedra tweeted.

“1st grade readers are in fact the worst,” Matt Whitlock, a senior advisor to the National Republican Senatorial Committee, tweeted. He was knocking Ocasio-Cortez for one of her earlier tweets in which she called pundits “first graders” for apparently misinterpreting her comments on voting rights for prisoners.

  1. i am enjoying this. Watching the enemy disintegrate right in front of your face. And repeatedly too.

    The judge and bailiff getting arrested for releasing the illegal out the back door while ICE was told to wait upfront, bidens gaffes today and everyday apparently, pelosi, the female sand niggers in the House. Now this.

    aoc is like a bulb with no filament. Supposed to be democrats shining light but just leaves them in the dark.

  2. AOC out-AOC’d herself.

    She’s becoming gutless. She never used to delete her tweets, but instead, twisted herself into a pretzel trying to explain “what she meant.”

    She couldn’t scratch her ass if it were moved to her head.
