AOC Serves Alina Habba With A Brutal Rebuttal After Her Working Class Jab
HuffPost
The congresswoman had an "intelligent" takeaway after the Trump adviser mocked her time in the service industry.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) took a shot at Alina Habba on Thursday after the Trump White House counselor mocked her for once working as a bartender.
“I don’t care what this woman says about me — but I want you to understand that she isn’t just talking about me, she’s talking about you. She’s talking about all of us,” said the congresswoman at one of Sen. Bernie Sanders’ (I-Vt.) rallies on his “Fighting Oligarchy” tour in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Habba, in a Fox News appearance last week, joined host Sean Hannity where the two questioned whether Ocasio-Cortez and Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) were leading the Democratic Party in “intellectual thought.”
“You were in the bar. You were in a bar. You were in a bar, AOC. Calm down. And not to have a drink, to serve one,” said Habba after Hannity sarcastically referred to Ocasio-Cortez as “such a genius.”
The remarks drew backlash on social media, and on Thursday, when the congresswoman noted that the GOP and Trump administration talk a “big” game about the working class only to let “the mask slip” every once in a while.
