Progressive Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) mocked a caravan of Trump supporters on Sunday, referring to the crowd as a “pileup of chumps.”
What are the details?
The progressive New York lawmaker made the derogatory remarks in response to a tweet showing a caravan of vehicles hoisting pro-Trump banners and blocking traffic on Whitestone Bridge along Interstate 678, which connects the Bronx and Queens.
“I hope AOC isn’t using the Whitestone Bridge today there is a lot of traffic!” the original tweet read.
“I took the Throggs Neck. Heard there was a pileup of chumps on the Whitestone,” Ocasio-Cortez, who represents portions of the Bronx and Queens, shot back.
The Twitter account that sent the first tweet includes the moniker “Chump for Trump” as part of its handle.
What else?
The Twitter user didn’t pull the slogan “Chump for Trump” out of nowhere. Rather, it is more than likely in reference to comments made by Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden during a campaign speech in Pennsylvania last month.
During the speech, a large group supporters of President Trump gathered outside the event area and began honking their car horns while some shouted “Four More Years!” through megaphones.
Biden became noticeably irritated at the Trump supporters and referred to them as “chumps” twice during his remarks.
“By the way, we don’t do things like those chumps out there with the microphone are doing, the Trump guys,” Biden said at one point. “Look, we’ve got to come together.
but her voting district has the highest number of confirmed virus cases and growing. so what is she doing-nothing. she wants so badly to be in pedophile joe’s cabinet. no different than kamalsut. brains of a child and the mouth of mad max-also street trash. attended a Trump rally, the energy was awsooooooom.
Funny how those who send out useful idiots to scream, blow air horns, use bull horns and set fires to disrupt conservative events cry about some people honking horns. Imagine these taffy-assed crybabies standing up to Putin.
