AOC Burns JD Vance After His Joke About Her Dies At Board Of Peace Meeting

JD Vance attempted to make a joke at Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s expense at Thursday’s Board of Peace meeting, but she ended up getting the last laugh when his jab was met with deafening silence.

The vice president addressed officials from nearly 50 countries shortly after President Donald Trump used his own speech to attack the New York lawmaker’s appearance at the Munich Security Conference, when she struggled to answer a sensitive question about whether the United States should send troops to Taiwan.

Like his boss, Vance tried to mock the Democrat on Thursday when he began his remarks. But he may not have been happy at how his joke landed.

“I knew exactly what I wanted to say, but then after the president said that I was so smart, and that I didn’t want to repeat our congresswoman, who froze for 20 seconds over in Munich,” he began.

“Now I’m tempted, sir, just to freeze, for 20 seconds, and just stare at the cameras,” he continued. “And maybe they’ll say nice things about me like they do about Congresswoman Cortez.”

Vance seemed to be expecting a laugh from the crowd, but none came.

Ocasio-Cortez later poked fun at Vance for the response to his “joke.”

“The only thing longer than my pause to think was their silence to his joke 💀” she wrote on X.
