Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez might have thought she had a final slam dunk for conservatives to close out the year — instead she got slammed and dunked herself.
On the national stage since 2018, the New York Democrat has established a well-deserved reputation for a combination of narcissism, arrogance and self-righteousness that sets conservative teeth on edge and keeps her mainstream media sycophants salivating.
But when she claimed on Saturday that her political opponents are motivated by “sexual frustration,” she took things to a whole new level — and the scorn poured in.
Ocasio-Cortez — better known by the rock-star initialism AOC — was responding to reactions to a story broken by National Review that reported that she was spending the New Year holiday in Miami Beach with her longtime beau, Riley Roberts, enjoying the freedoms offered by Florida in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Another kind of politician might have acknowledged the hypocrisy of being from a political party and political movement that has crucified Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and the Sunshine State’s realistic approach to dealing with the coronavirus — pretty much the opposite of the vaccination-obsessed, mask-fetishizing approach of her native New York City and the Empire State.
But humility isn’t how AOC rolls. So, naturally, the criticism sparked by the story had to be due solely to … Republican “sexual frustration” due to GOP members not being able to enjoy the congresswoman’s physical favors. She took particular issue with a Twitter post by Steve Cortez, a commentator and former adviser to former President Donald Trump, who commented rudely on Roberts’ footwear.
“If Republicans are mad they can’t date me they can just say that instead of projecting their sexual frustrations onto my boyfriend’s feet,” Ocasio-Cortez wrote on Twitter.
“Ya creepy weirdos.”

That kind of message from a federal lawmaker should disturb any American, regardless of politics, considering it sounds like the pouting of a particularly spoiled high school diva more than a duly elected member of the legislative branch of government.
AOC herself might have realized how the message came off, because she followed it up with a tweet apparently aimed at broadening the circle of oppression beyond her own undeniably photogenic person to “woman, &LGBT+ people in general.”
Putting aside the fact that that didn’t make a whole lot of sense, the damage had already been done. AOC had declared that her political opponents are just venting their feelings of being unable to consummate an irresistible desire for the belle of the Bronx.
It being the leftist cesspool of Twitter, AOC had plenty of supporters, of course. But conservatives weren’t buying it — very much including conservative women.
“You just want to have sex me” is potentially the filthiest, most immature response I’ve ever heard uttered from an elected official that is facing critique.
She’s quite literally creating a Republican sexual fantasy about herself. #AocMeltdown https://t.co/u3AGcomtJh— Candace Owens (@RealCandaceO) December 31, 2021
This woman needs therapy, not a seat in Congress. What a pathetic attempt to use sex to deflect from your COVID hypocrisy. No, @AOC, Republican men are not interested in you. They know that dating or marrying a Communist is a recipe for misery. https://t.co/CvUkGntmrs

People: Kind of weird that while NY kids are being forced to eat their lunches in 30 degree weather “bc of COVID,” AOC is vacationing in free FL, the state Dems have criticized the most
AOC: What I’m hearing you say is that you’re upset you can’t have sex with me https://t.co/PMtsiwHz1c

Remember when AOC had someone really sharp tweeting for her and that person was king/queen of the clapback? She…should rehire them. https://t.co/n5bvfs1mGr

And then there were the ones like these — trying to communicate with AOC in the kind of language she really understands: The beauty contest school of political competition.
Love the child like response like you would expect from a high school mean girl "they just hate me bcz I'm sooo hot". Ya your cute but so many things tarnish the looks and quite honestly there are millions of cute 30 somethings out that don't come with the baggage.

I know this may be hard for you to hear, but the conservative side of the aisle has many more and much hotter women, in general.

Comparing the relative attractiveness of women is not generally a winning argument in political discourse (comparing the relative of attractiveness of men in politics is even worse). And there’s a good reason for it.
Political philosophy isn’t about physical attraction, it’s about the power of ideas and their results. And the power of the ideas that created the United States — individual liberty to find success or failure, equality under the law respect for private property rights — are undeniable, because of their results.
They haven’t been perfectly implemented, of course — no endeavor by humans will ever be perfect. But they’ve resulted in the richest, freest and most powerful nation the world has ever seen.
The socialist, collective ideas espoused by Ocasio-Cortez and her ilk, meanwhile, have resulted in pretty much the exact opposite: poverty, the grinding subjection of the individual to the power of the state and the deaths, over and over again, of countless millions of human beings. (Leftists don’t like admitting that regimes that count their victims in the tens of millions — Stalin’s Soviet Union, Hitler’s National Socialist Germany, Mao’s Communist China — all have a totalitarian ideology in common. Guess which side of the aisle it’s on.)
In her short time in the public eye, Ocasio-Cortez has been wrong about many things, but it’s tough to get anything more wrong than she got this.
The congresswoman’s relative physical charms are not the issue. When it comes to conservatives and when it comes to what matters, it’s not desire that AOC arouses. It’s disgust.
I wouldnt let my dead dog,make love with AOC.
All these comments don’t mean a thing until she’s DISCIPLINED BY HER PEERS IN CONGRESS!!!!!!!!!!!! AND I DON’T SEE THAT HAPPENING ANY TIME SOON!!!!!!!
Democrats are Americans people enemy
With that statement she just proved that she is a CHILD in a woman’s body – the body may have developed/grown into it’s right size etc. but certainly NOT the brain, and THAT happened to a lot of these Leftist creatures…..
It just proves that she only hears what she wants to hear.
She has always reminded me of an old cartoon character. A bug-eyed bucktoothed little girl with round glasses walking around in her mothers grossly oversized heels.
If ever AOC and her boyfriend decide to sow their seed, I’m going to pray for crop failure.
I can think of several other women whom are more beautiful, level-headed and intelligent than AOC.
Yes, Tulsi would be the one that causes me heart palpitations.
I agree.
Definitely, and she’s one Dem I can agree with on several topics.
Her barmaid’s brain was talking here, NOT a Professional Politician’s brain….. Same goes for o’bama’s POT smoking brain ……. NO wonder America is going DOWN, DOWN, DOWN….!!!!!!!!
AOC is clueless and her thinking any conservative male desires her is just delusional thinking . Only in her dreams . That must be what she was doing in Florida trolling for conservative men but it appears she has got no takers there in Florida . Must be all that beauty she projects that discourages conservative men ! LOL
I thought they were boy dress like girls!
You kidding me or what? I’d rather screw a skeleton. Sorry, as a long time Republican, I don’t see the attraction
GOOD ONE!!
AOC had better be a firecracker in bed, she has absolutely nothing else going for her.
She a firecrackers alright! According to her boyfriend buddy. She got a bad fart !
At this point the only people who don’t realize just how stupid Alessandra is – are those who
are even dumber than she is. It’s hard to imagine but there are a hell of a lot of them out there.
This is one ignorant ugly Beach.
AOC and Hillary would make perfect matching Bookends. Except not as useful.
She exemplifies the Lack of Intelligence, decorum, Common Sense and Morality that is common place within the DEMONCRAT PARTY……she belongs in a BAR cleaning tables NOT in our CONGRESS……which begs the question: Are there this many DUMB, STUPID people in her New York District that landed her in our Government where she is as lost as a Hooker in a Church Social!
I often wondered that, Look at what those people elect to anything. But if those dumb asses take those death shots then maybe we will lose a lot of them.
That Riley Roberts boyfriend of hers looks like a dorky douche. Perfect for the flat chested commie.
Why does this author many time add fuel to her lies? I guess maybe I’m different from him, because I’ve never once considered her to be remotely attractive, not the slightest little bit. I response to a prior comment, I am 100% sure I wouldn’t need to stop my dog he’d be running away from her as fast as he could.
Well I guess I’m different mind. I dont care how beautiful a woman is. If she believes like the demonrats do then I would lose all respect for her!
If anything, AOC should be the poster child for abortion.
Never heard any Republicans want to date her! But I’m sure ERIC SWANWEL DOES! And he got a big mouth like her donkey laughed!
Actually, if you look at the pic of AOC in this article, she looks a awful lot like that guy from 3rd Rock From The Sun, Harry Solomon
Seriously, AOC has major need for mental health treatment. She’s clearly having a wonderful love affair with herself but she needs to take time and get her head out of her own butt and get a reality check. Her claim is totally outrageous and actually laughable when you think about it that she would believe the Republicans, and in her own twisted deranged mind, most people just desire her so much sexually, seriously? And what is she doing in Florida when she keeps attacking and slamming Governor DeSantis and the state because he is a true patriot and has gotten all of his constituents through the pandemic successfully with nothing within the State being closed. He made a way to make sure Floridians were vaccinated when the federal government refused to even assist once Biden got in office and refused to help red states, Biden even delayed and held back the vaccine going to red states including Florida. But governor DeSantis demanded and found a way to get the vaccine to supply Floridians and even those who were visiting the state like “snowbirds.” with vaccinations and treatment. So why would AOC want to go to Florida when she trashes it so much and one wonders who paid for the trip—the taxpayers? Why does she not give an accounting of how she spends the exorbitant expense account that she is supplied by the American taxpayers which she definitely should. She has no credibility and certainly no relevance and she’s simply just a waste of time and human breath.
