In a recent Instagram Live session, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) criticized Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, labeling him as “one of the most unintelligent billionaires” she has encountered. She expressed concerns about Musk’s involvement with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), suggesting that his lack of expertise could lead to adverse outcomes.
Ocasio-Cortez’s remarks have sparked significant backlash, with critics highlighting Musk’s achievements in revolutionizing the automotive and aerospace industries. Supporters of Musk argue that his track record demonstrates considerable intelligence and innovation.
This exchange adds to the ongoing tension between Ocasio-Cortez and Musk, who have previously clashed over various issues. The congresswoman’s recent comments have intensified the debate surrounding Musk’s role in government reform and his influence on public policy.
AOC says Elon Musk “is one of the most unintelligent billionaires I’ve ever met or seen.”
AOC is a retard.
