‘Weaker than he looks’: AOC had fiery words for Trump amid govt shutdown — and they’re burning brighter than his tan

United States House of Representatives member Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has never been the one to mince her words. Especially when it comes to slandering the Republicans and the current U.S. President Donald Trump, AOC is always one step ahead of the others. 

If Republicans want to blame their shutdown on me, they are more than welcome to come to my office and negotiate anytime.

Unlike them, I won’t let kids and hard working people get cut off their insulin and chemo on my watch.

They know it, too. Door’s open fellas. Your call. https://t.co/q1FsbiuqyH
