Conservative media is obsessed with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and she’s getting increasingly more creative in shutting them down.
In her, they have found a Democrat whose wardrobe they love to obsess over the likes of which they haven’t had since Barack Obama’s tan suit. Ocasio-Cortez, of course, is taking it all in stride.
After their latest attempt at fashion-shaming Ocasio-Cortez blew up, you’d think people would steer clear and wait for the new congresswoman to, you know, actually get sworn in and start legislating before they criticized her again. But Fox News couldn’t leave well enough alone.
On Friday night, the topic of Ocasio-Cortez’s wardrobe came up again because a pair of her shoes is heading to an exhibit at Cornell that focuses on clothing that has empowered women. Ocasio-Cortez referred to these shoes (that have holes in them) during her campaign as a sign of her hustle. Fox News devoted an entire segment to the footwear in question.
As far as Fox News segments go, it wasn’t that bad. Some complementary things were said about the incoming congresswoman, and they waited about two minutes before launching into the socialist fear-mongering.
When someone brought it up on Twitter, Ocasio-Cortez was ready with a snappy comeback in Spanish.
This translates into, “No, it’s not love/What you feel, it’s called obsession.” Though Ocasio-Cortez had a version ready for non-Spanish speakers as well.

Here it is, just for fun!
There was a bit more bilingual shade to come for Ocasio-Cortez, too.
Don’t worry, Fox News has made it clear that they are far superior to + more intelligent than me, who they’ve called a “little, simple person.” So I’m sure catching up to me in spoken languages shouldn’t be a problem for them.
One down. Just a few more to go!

Perhaps this tweet best sums up how Ocasio-Cortez supporters feel about Fox News and its apparent infatuation.
