Critics Say Habba And Hannity’s Cheap Shot At AOC Exposes An Ugly GOP Reality

Critics poured cold water on Trump White House counselor Alina Habba and Fox News’ Sean Hannity for mocking Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) over her former job as a bartender on Thursday.

Habba and Hannity were questioning the notion that Ocasio-Cortez and Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) are leading the “intellectual thought” of the Democratic Party when Hannity called out Ocasio-Cortez’s criticism of top Donald Trump ally Elon Musk, sarcastically saying the New York Democrat is “such a genius.”

Habba chimed in: “You were in the bar. You were in a bar. You were in a bar, AOC. Calm down. And not to have a drink, to serve one.”

“Exactly,” Hannity laughed.

Critics quickly condemned the commentary, the latest in a long line of jabs about Ocasio-Cortez’s time in the service industry.

Many on social media suggested it exposed GOP hypocrisy as it attempts to paint itself as the party of the working class.
