AOC says she's itching to ditch her Tesla after spat with Elon: Progressive rep says she wants to buy electric car made at unionized factory after Musk told her to stop flirting with him on Twitter AOC said that she bought the electric Tesla Model 3 in order to get back and forward to DC during the early days of the Covid-19 pandemic
Following her recent banter with Elon Musk on Twitter, AOC says she wants to buy an American electric car that was built by union workers AOC is one of around 10 members of Congress who own Tesla cars Musk recently said that after previously voting Democrat, he's now switching to the Republicans
The Green New Deal-backing Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, 32, told Bloomberg in an interview Wednesday that she wants to switch to an electronic car that is made domestically by unionized workers.
Currently, the only such vehicles she could consider are Ford's huge F-150 Lightning truck, which will be released later this year, or a Chevy Bolt.
The Democrat told the network that she purchased her Model 3 in 2020 around the time that the Covid-19 began.
AOC said that it was the only electric car that could get her from her Bronx-Queens district to the nation's capital on 'one, or one-and-half charges.'

Now the proud member of the squad says: ‘I would love to switch.’
AOC claimed it was because she wants to support a manufacturer with a unionized production line, but her timing has raised questions.
Just a few weeks ago, Musk jokingly told her to stop flirting with him after she took to Twitter to scold about the billionaire’s planned purchase of the social media network.
AOC’s Tesla Model 3 was spotted parked illegally outside a Whole Foods in Washington D.C. in May 2021.
The $35,000 Tesla with New York plates and a Congressional parking pass was pictured in a no-parking zone near AOC’s luxury DC apartment on May 14, 2021, the Washington Free Beacon reported.
Sources told the Free Beacon that AOC had been seen driving a white Tesla in the neighborhood.
