An investor has labelled Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez 'financially illiterate' for her role in destroying the Amazon deal which saw the retail giant pull out of New York.
Tracy Maitland, president and chief investment officer of Advent Capital Management, was speaking at an Al Sharpton conference in the city where AOC had herself earlier unveiled a radical 2020 victory plan for Democrats.
During a panel discussion Maitland said: 'The people campaigning against the Amazon campus are financially illiterate.'
He later told The New York Post: 'This was a disgrace. I partially blame AOC for the loss of Amazon. She doesn't know what she doesn't know. That's scary.
'We have to make sure she's better educated or vote her out of office.'

Full title - Investor calls Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez 'financially illiterate' for her role in destroying the Amazon deal at same conference where she unveiled a radical 2020 plan for Democrats
She’s pretty much illiterate in all arenas of philosophy and science.
He’s obviously a racist /s
Sraight from the horse's mouth.
Airhead
Of
Congress
She didn’t get that title for nothin’.
Alexandria aint just a city in Egypt!
Of course she’s illiterate. She majored in economics and still supports socialism.
Yes, thats whats so depressing.
Gotta be impressed with all the good things AOC has done for the Dems. GO AOC!!
Financially illerate? AOC has admitted as much. She’s a proud bartender after all. Unlike Trump she has never run a company or run anything except her mouth.
AOC had nothing to do with it.
NYS couldn’t afford the bribe.
The donkeys know she’s a liability nationally, so expect this sort of sniping as a routine matter until the next election cycle. It’s a safe district, and the last thing they need is photogenic loose cannon. They’ll do all they can (surreptitiously) to replace her with some stooge they can control once they’ve driven her negatives to some useful level.
But she has a (worthless) degree in economics...Her degree is worthless because she doesn’t know anything about the economic system...
Honestly, she’s fairly representative of politicians in general. Like pairing caviar with Velveeta and generic light beer, modern politics pairs mediocrity and power.
Yes, she’s like that but a cut above.
Like a bottle of neon-red salmon eggs, NA generic beer and store-brand aerosol cheese.
Well, thats Boston University for you. All you have to do is be a Marxist useful idiot to get a degree in economics.
No they actually could.
protesters like this moron ruined it.
if you live in NYC you should read to keep up
