Ocasio-Cortez Calls Trump 'Racist,' He Fires Right Back

New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has again taken aim at President Donald Trump.

But this time the president has fired back.

After months of her non-stop attacks the White House has had enough of the know nothing know-it-all.

And it came to a head on Sunday when Ocasio-Cortez spoke to Anderson Cooper on “60 Minutes.”

In her interview she declared that the president is a racist.

.@AOC says the president is a racist, “no question.” The White House told 60 Minutes that President Trump “has repeatedly condemned racism and bigotry in all forms.” https://t.co/HmucF1z6zg pic.twitter.com/N5RlRfHoA9

“Do you believe President Trump is a racist?” Cooper asked.

“Yeah. Yeah. No question,” the 29-year-old replied.

“When you look at the words that he uses, which are historic dog whistles of white supremacy,” she said.

“The president certainly didn’t invent racism,” she said. “But he’s certainly given a voice to it and expanded it and created a platform for those things.”

Contacted for comment the Deputy White House Press Secretary said this.

“Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez’s sheer ignorance on the matter can’t cover the fact that President Trump supported and passed historic criminal justice reform…”

And ignorance is the perfect word for her.

In another segment of the interview Ocasio-Cortez defended herself by telling Cooper that being correct on facts was not all that important.

“There's a lot of people more concerned about being precisely, factually, and semantically correct than about being morally right,” @AOC says in response to criticism that she’s made factual errors. https://t.co/sKf3sHl9F6 pic.twitter.com/xKc2eB7GEk

“If people want to really blow up one figure here or one word there, I would argue that they’re missing the forest for the trees,” she said.

“I think that there’s a lot of people more concerned about being precisely, factually, and semantically correct than about being morally right,” the congresswoman said.

Anderson Cooper shot back that “But being factually correct is important.”

“It’s absolutely important. And whenever I make a mistake,” she contended.

“I say, ‘Okay, this was clumsy.’ and then I restate what my point was. But it’s— it’s not the same thing as— as the president lying about immigrants. It’s not the same thing, at all,” she said.

Yeah it’s the president’s fault that you are a dolt.
