GOP’s Joe Borelli trolls AOC’s City Council influence campaign

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is getting more than she bargained for in her effort to sway New York’s upcoming City Council races: a gleeful video takedown from a Republican foe.

When AOC’s Courage to Change PAC announced this week that the progressive firebrand was looking for locals to support in all 51 council districts, Councilman Joe Borelli (R-SI) decided to give it a shot. “Let’s see if AOC and the socialists go with me this year,” the former Trump surrogate muses in a clip posted to YouTube Thursday.
