Ocasio-Cortez Blames Low Favorability on Racism, Sexism, Fox News

New York Democratic congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Monday shared a tweet blaming her low favorability numbers in a newly released poll on bigotry and Fox News.

A Siena College poll of New York State voters found that Ocasio-Cortez's favorability is underwater, with 31 percent viewing her favorably and 44 percent viewing her unfavorably. Those results mirror national polling from Gallup and Fox News, which found that Ocasio-Cortez has a net approval rating of -10 and -13 points, respectively.

Ocasio-Cortez notably struggles even with some members of her own party, with 30 percent of New York Democrats viewing her unfavorably. Siena also found that voters are not happy with Ocasio-Cortez's opposition to the New York City-Amazon deal, which two-thirds of New Yorkers supported, according to the poll.

"More people think that Amazon, Governor Cuomo, Mayor de Blasio, the State Senate, and local Queens activists were villains in this saga than they were heroes," wrote pollster Steven Greenberg. "However, voters say the biggest villain was Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Only 12 percent call her hero, while 38 percent label her a villain."

The results garnered significant attention from reporters and media outlets, leading one Ocasio-Cortez fan to say, "It's interesting to see centrists suddenly downplay or ignore the effects of racism, sexism and Fox News targeting when discussing [her] overall approval ratings."

Liberals always do the blame game - it’s always something or somebody else’s fault. She must have gotten her ideas from Hillary.

It appears she has been receiving some coaching from Hillary on how to avoid blame.

We have a second Hillary on our hands.

It’s everybody else’s fault and not hers.

She got that from Hitlery and from DumblASSio. Both are constantly blaming factors external to themselves for their lack of success. I guess it’s the libtard way.

Maybe if she didn’t act so retarded they’d like her more; maybe even respect her. Then there’s that donkey laugh.

You can just see the stupid all over her incredibly tiny head filled with such big eyes and so many teeth.
