Lovely putdown, and a 3rd-degree burn. You tell 'em, AOC.

“I used to work as a bartender and these are the kinds of people that I threw out of bars all the time,” Ocasio-Cortez quipped…

I used to work in a psychiatric hospital, and Marjorie Taylor Greene is the kind of person who used to tell me she was Jesus Christ.

“Talking to her. She says screaming. You know what screaming is? Screaming is what people do when rockets are fired at them like Hamas terrorists are firing into Israel,” Greene told reporters.

That’s a pretty quirky thing to add after you deny you were screaming. And by “quirky” I mean nuts.

MTG will play the victim card with that burn for a while.

She’s probably the first real troll elected to Congress.

Marjorie Taylor Green could be standing over AOC’s dead body with a smoking gun in her hand, and she’d be like “Murder? You know what murder is? Murder is when abortionists kill millions of babies every day. Arresting me is cancel culture.”

OT:
Now I know why Colonial Pipeline was able to restart about 4 - 5 days sooner than expected. They paid a ransom to DarkSide:

AOC is so good at this. MTG doesn’t know what she’s in for. And she won’t know even as it happens. She’ll still think she’s on top. It’s a blessing that woman(?) doesn’t know how bad off she really is.

But we’ll know.
