AOC slaps aside obsessed Fox News personalities: ‘I didn’t expect them to make total fools of themselves’

During a Friday evening town hall meeting on her Green New Deal, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) responded to right-wing critics.

MSNBC anchor Chris Hayes, who hosted the town hall, played a video montage of Fox News hosts and Republican politicians complaining about the first-term member of Congress who is the youngest woman ever elected.

After the clip played, Hayes asked AOC if she was expecting the response she has received.

"Yes, 100 percent," she replied.

"That?" Hayes asked, pointing to the screen where the video had played. "They took it to eleven."

"It is next level," Ocasio-Cortez agreed.

"I didn't expect them to make total fools of themselves," she added, to massive applause from the Bronx crowd.
