Kennedy made the swipe at the Democratic lawmaker during an interview with Fox News, saying she is “kind of like Vice President Kamala Harris, but with more bartending experience.” He went on to say that she has “never been accused of being a policy maven.”

AOC reacted on social media, saying “my having been a waitress makes me 1000x more qualified to govern on behalf of working people than whatever lifelong politician nonsense you’ve swung from your whole career.”

“Why should working people vote for you if this is what you think of them?,” she added.

    And yet, so many working class people support these GOP ghouls who look them in the face and tell them they’re worthless (figuratively speaking).

    Because propaganda is such a drug, it can even convince people to act against their own interests.
