New York Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said a chant from President Donald Trump's supporters mocking her was emblematic of Trump finding a female politician to attack.
"You know this is part of a pattern that the right and the far-right and, frankly, the President is consistent with," Ocasio-Cortez told CNN in New York. "He doesn't have another woman, Hillary Clinton or whoever else, to vilify anymore so they need to find another woman to kind of prop up and become a lightning rod."
At a rally in Michigan on Thursday, members of the crowd could be heard chanting "AOC sucks" at the mention of her name by Donald Trump Jr.
The freshman Democrat has emerged as a major figure on the left and a recurring focus of criticism by conservatives, who regularly mention Ocasio-Cortez by name or target the "Green New Deal," a resolution she has championed to target climate change.
In her comments on Friday responding to the Trump rally, Ocasio-Cortez talked about bridging divides and said she had recently accepted an invitation from Kentucky GOP Rep. Andy Barr to visit coal mines in Kentucky.

You have to hand it to these democrats; they can reach down to the molecular level to spin and lie on their hot button issues. They are lawyers, and their lying reminds me of the rant against lawyers by Jonathan Swift.
She’s already cracking, and this is only the beginning.
Wait. Is she claiming to be female??
Trump supporters presumed her gender??
Her thoughts come direct from the sjw manual.
Yep. The commission has been discredited already, but it will be good to have a counter narrative to talk about.
The purpose as I understand it is to check the work of the EPA and ICC. If their computer models predicting temp rises are discredited that will be good enough.
She’s now doing that “LOOK! SQUIRREL!!!” thing.
Don’t allow Dims to continue to sell identity politics. Get in their face. She isn’t vilified because she is a woman, person of color, etc., she is vilified because she is a communist idiot.
Well the people in her district are fed up with her not paying attention to the issues there. Still doesn’t have an office in one area and not answering their calls and e-mails with anything more than saying she’s looking into it.
We all know she’s not interested in ‘local’ issues. Rather she and her co-horts wanted a national stage to spew their socialist junk to the public. She’s only an activist and not a problem solver.
