Kennedy made the swipe at the Democratic lawmaker during an interview with Fox News, saying she is “kind of like Vice President Kamala Harris, but with more bartending experience.” He went on to say that she has “never been accused of being a policy maven.”

AOC reacted on social media, saying “my having been a waitress makes me 1000x more qualified to govern on behalf of working people than whatever lifelong politician nonsense you’ve swung from your whole career.”

“Why should working people vote for you if this is what you think of them?,” she added.

    I love the fact that he’s making fun of her for NOT having an elitist background. What trash.

    Whenever I’m arguing with someone about TACO I just point out that what we really needed was another rich, old, white man. That’ll fix our problems.

      Not just rich, born rich.

      If someone worked themselves to death 80hrs/week to build a fortune, forgoing family or personal development. That might not be “healthy” but at least we could all point at their work ethic and tenacity as something worthwhile.

      But this fuck was just born into it. Never had to work a day in his life, just living off daddies dime.
