AOC Destroys Greene On Twitter With One Word: 'Taller' [View all]

Politics 6/27/21 7:44am Read time: 1 minute

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene called Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez a "little communist," and that she wasn't American because she doesn't embrace our American ways.

By Ed Scarce

The formula for a Trump rally is a simple one. Throw as much red meat as you can to Trump's rabid MAGA fans and get them hootin' and hollerin'. And that's about all there is to them. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene did that with attacks on Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, calling her a "little communist," and said that she wasn't American because she doesn't embrace our American ways. She also called for impeaching President Biden, expelling Rep. Maxine Waters, and firing Dr. Anthony Fauci. All the while, pumping her fist in the air.

AOC responded to her attacks later on Twitter, writing "First of all, I’m taller than her." Which is all that needs to be said for Greene's trolling.
