NextImg:AOC winds up in the dunce cap after she tries schooling Ted Cruz on post-Civil-Rights-Act politics

OK, so before we show you exactly what AOC said to Ted Cruz that was so dumb and just begging for a schooling sesh, let’s set the stage.

Earlier this week, Cruz took the NAACP to task for claiming that it’s not safe for black people to travel to Florida:

Now, you can see by the number of likes on that tweet that AOC’s minions are big fans of how she handled Cruz there. Because they will eagerly swallow whatever slop she feeds them and beg for more.

But just because AOC’s tweets get lots of likes doesn’t mean that they aren’t as dishonest and stupid as she is. And there was no shortage of people who were more than happy to set the record straight.
