Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) is tearing into Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) for failing to speak out against white supremacy.
Cruz took to twitter to slam Ocasio-Cortez for joining the “radical left.”
“Biden may be the Democrat Party’s nominee, but we know who is driving the train,” Cruz wrote.
Ocasio-Cortez fired back, “I must say, Ted Cruz making poorly executed memes while riding in the quiet car of the White Supremacist Express is pretty on brand for both him and 2020.”
Their exchange comes just days after President Donald Trump failed to condemn white supremacist groups during the first presidential debate.
Ocasio-Cortez warned Americans Trump is a threat to the nation because he is racist.
“Donald Trump is a white supremacist. People have been warning about this for a long time,” Ocasio-Cortez said.
She added, “They were ridiculed, called hyperbolic and radical – not bc they were wrong, but bc others couldn’t accept that our country elected a supremacist as President. This is fascism at our door.”
Cruz also exchanged jabs with CNN’s Chris Cuomo over Trump’s remarks, as IJR previously reported
