A-O-Hypocrisy: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Won’t Face Dem Primary Opponents

AOC

As The New York Post reports, “AOC is going AWOL.” Freshman Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) has decided not to show up to debate her opponents this week. Just a week before the New York Democratic primaries, AOC has decided to forego her last opportunity to tell her constituents how much she cares about them.

It’s not AOC without a little hypocrisy sprinkled in; she is skipping the very event she previously lambasted Rep. Joseph Crowley for missing in 2018. But don’t fret voters of New York’s 14thcongressional district, the two virtual debates from last month “are still available online for voters” said AOC spokeswoman Lauren Hitt. How vain.

It may be that the self-proclaimed socialist is still licking her wounds from the June 5thdebate. Journalist Michelle Caruso-Cabrera called the congresswoman “a polarizing, divisive force’ in the Democratic Party who voted against the coronavirus aid bill and drove a planned Amazon project out of Queens” reported The Post.

Caruso-Cabrera spoke to The Post and said, “I have been to all of the NYCHA projects within the district, and do you know what they tell me? AOC is MIA…it’s taken her till now to face the realities of those suffering in the Bronx and Queens who want answers.”

AOC’s district has not elected a Republican “since its lines were drawn in 1993 – so the winner of its June 23 Democratic primary will almost certainly become its next representative in Congress” reported by The Post. Although she has that history going for her, there is another historical nugget that’s not in her favor.

When Rep. Crowley did not show in 2018, “it was seen as a backhanded diss of his upstart opponent – and helped AOC unseat him in a shocking primary result one week later” The Post reminds us. “Ocasio-Cortez is claiming her incumbency privilege…But if she does the same thing, history will repeat itself” said Parkchester Times publisher Sheikh Musa Drammeh. We can only hope.
