AOC mocked for ‘absolute train wreck’ weekend on global stage: 'Made a fool out of herself'
This deserves loud pushback.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., is being widely mocked for what one critic called an "absolute train wreck" weekend full of gaffes while in Germany for the Munich Security Conference.
One of the leading voices of the Democratic Party and a rumored 2028 presidential frontrunner, Ocasio-Cortez was ripped over several comments she made this weekend, including one in which she attempted to mock Secretary of State Marco Rubio for saying that U.S. cowboy culture originated in Spain.
"My favorite part was when he said that American cowboys came from Spain," Ocasio-Cortez said, laughing. "I believe that Mexicans and the descendants of African enslaved peoples would like to have a word on that."
Matt Whitlock, a GOP strategist, called Ocasio-Cortez’s showing "an absolute train wreck," calling her out for "Talking Nazis, Mexico and Spain, and the word salad heard round the world on Taiwan."
"Tell me you know nothing about history without saying you know nothing about history," Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, wrote.

Political strategist Marco Frieri reacted, "I don't understand why AOC is trying to rewrite this. It just makes her look bad."
David Harris, an author on antisemitism, wrote that "Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) isn't just an ignoramus. She's dangerous because she has the support of a larger group of ignoramuses."
Harris took particular issue with Ocasio-Cortez’s comment about Israel perpetuating a genocide in Gaza. Harris wrote that "for her, on German soil, to declare #Israel guilty of ‘genocide’ is beyond obscene" and "should be disqualifying for her political ambitions."
OutKick founder Clay Travis compared Ocasio-Cortez’s answer about U.S. policy on Taiwan to a viral beauty pageant answer from 2007, quipping, "Who gave the better answer to a foreign policy question: AOC or Miss South Carolina?"

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, D-Mich., the term-limited governor of the key Great Lakes battleground state, was also criticized.
Asked what victory would look like for Ukraine, Whitmer said Ocasio-Cortez and U.S. Ambassador to NATO Matthew Whitaker, who were sitting with her on the panel, were "much more steeped in foreign policy than a governor is."
"Ukraine's independence, keeping their land mass and having the support of all of the allies, I think, is the goal," Whitmer added.
Ocasio-Cortez was also asked, "Would and should the U.S. actually commit U.S. troops to …
