Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: I don’t think Trump ‘knows how to deal with a girl from the Bronx’
The Hill ^ | 06/29/18 | Mallory Shelbourne

New York Democratic congressional candidate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said late Thursday that she doesn’t think President Trump “knows how to deal with a girl” who is from the Bronx.

During an appearance on CBS’s “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” Ocasio-Cortez spoke about her win over Rep. Joe Crowley (D-N.Y.) in the 14th district’s Democratic primary.

Colbert, however, asked Ocasio-Cortez about the president’s tweet regarding Crowley’s loss.

“Well you know, the president is from Queens, and with all due respect - half of my district is from Queens – I don’t think he knows how to deal with a girl from the Bronx,” she told Colbert.

Ocasio-Cortez criticized Trump this week for his remarks about Crowley.

“It is unacceptable to be disrespectful of Congressman Crowley,” Ocasio-Cortez told CNN in an interview.

“He’s done some phenomenal, phenomenal work for the Bronx and Queens."

The president on Tuesday called Crowley a "big Trump hater" following the upset in New York.

“Wow! Big Trump Hater Congressman Joe Crowley, who many expected was going to take Nancy Pelosi’s place, just LOST his primary election,” the president wrote on Twitter.

“In other words, he’s out! That is a big one that nobody saw happening. Perhaps he should have been nicer, and more respectful, to his President!”

Ocasio-Cortez will face off against the Republican nominee for Congress in the November general in a heavily blue New York City district.

She got 17,000 votes. I’ve seen more votes for dog catcher in a small town.

This is what the democRATS call a “Rising Star”

Yeah, like Trump (a native New Yorker), has never dealt with anyone from the Bronx.

The Media has glommed onto this newbie as the next Dem savior. However, she only won by 4K votes in a primary where over 80% of the registered D voters stayed home. In short, she is an accidental candidate.

Times sure have changed. Back in the day, Bronx girls played a mean game of Hide and Seek, as well as Ring-a-leave-io. They also cared about boys, grades and boys.

A Socialist was a Communist back then and Commies were not welcome. REALLY not welcome.

Yes, Trump knows how to deal with people from the Bronx.

But he does have to be aware Democrats are going to make her sex an issue if Trump goes after her.

But she self-identifies as a 'strong Latina' so keep this article handy when Democrats start their, 'Trump is a attacking a woman' narrative.

She’s a pimple on the ass of time.

A socialist, fascist, communist, democrat (repeating myself).

An adherent to a many times failed social/political system.

She only sounds like a good choice to democrats because without her they are left with Pelosi and Waters as the face of their failing party.

She’ll pull the party further to the left and drive more moderate demos over to the Trump side. Brilliant work!

that would be great to see Crowley run as independent or any way he could -

other option I hope for is a republican of any kind runs against her and a miracle happens in that heavily Dem district and she loses.

She’s baiting him. Trying to get her name in the news. Trying to use Trump to do it. I truly hope he ignores her.

Sure he does.

Tape cab fare to her forehead while she’s sleeping it off and leave for Florida.
