    AOC ripped for ‘fake’ accent during fiery DNC speech

    New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has been mocked as “cringe” and “bizarre” after she was accused of putting on a fake new accent during her fiery Democratic National Convention speech.

    The lefty congresswoman, 34, was ripped on social media in the wake of her rousing, minutes-long address to delegates in Chicago on Monday night — with many asking, “What accent is AOC using here?”

    Footage circulating online pointed to a particularly fired-up portion of Ocasio-Cortez’s address when she took aim at former President Donald Trump.

    “I, for one, am tired of hearing about how a two-bit union buster thinks of himself as more of a patriot than the woman who fights every single day to lift working people from under the boots of greed, trampling on our way of life,” the progressive rep raged.

    Some critics accused her of adopting an apparent Southern drawl as she shouted to the crowd.

    “AOC speech was cringe. The fake accent was way too much for me. Back snapped. I called it. DNC is cringe as all get out,” one user posted on X.

    “Preacher AOC debuting her new accent,” another wrote.

    One critic chimed in: “Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez developed a new phony accent in the middle of delivering her very painful speech.”



    “I’m starting to think AOC yelling in her new southern accent was the highlight,” one person tweeted as she ripped the overall tone of the “snoozefest” DNC.

    Still, the left-wing rep was a hit with her fellow Democrats.

    Attendees chanted “AOC” as she walked out on stage and portions of her speech were, at times, drowned out by huge applause and cheers.





    The congresswoman, who hails from the Bronx, has been ripped in the past for adopting what critics have derided as a phony accent.

    In one 2019 speech, Ocasio-Cortez was accused of speaking with a Southern accent while in front of a majority-black audience at the Rev. Al Sharpton’s National Action Network convention.

    She fired back at the time, raging: “Folks talking about my voice can step right off.”

    “Any kid who grew up in a distinct linguistic culture & had to learn to navigate class enviros at school/work knows what’s up,” she tweeted. “My Spanish is the same way.”

    She has a squeaky voice, no matter the fake accent.

    She opened her stupid mouth again to support the terrorists. She is an 'obscene shill for jihadists and Jew-haters!'

    Ocasio-Cortez nailed with online backlash after bizarre response to pager attack on Hezbollah

    .......

    Ocasio-Cortez was immediately assailed online for the post.

    "You can’t even bring yourself to say Hezbollah, you obscene shill for jihadists and Jew-haters! Shame on you!" replied human rights lawyer Arsen Ostrovsky.

    "It's hard to conceive of a counterterrorism operation that has more precisely targeted terrorists while limiting civilian casualties than detonating the pagers of Hezbollah terrorists. So naturally @AOC is outraged," responded Philip Klein of National Review.

    "It's the most targeted anti-terror strike in human history. But sure, go on with your pro-Hezbollah propaganda efforts. After all, some of your friends had a rough day," wrote Ben Shapiro.

    "This is complete nonsense and proves unequivocally that AOC and her ilk will attack Israel regardless how it conducts itself," read another popular response. "This is moral bankruptcy at its worst. It shows such ignorance and bad judgment that it would be deplorable for any normal person, much less a member of Congress."

    Ocasio-Cortez wasn't the only member of "The Squad" who faced backlash. Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan faced savage mockery after she criticized the attack on Hezbollah.
