Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has been praised for her genius response to yet another attack from Marjorie Taylor Greene.
GOP Rep. Greene, 47, took aim at AOC while speaking at a Republican rally in Ohio on Saturday (June 26). The rally was the first to be headlined by former US President Donald Trump since his exit from the White House back in January.
While addressing the crowd, Greene insulted the 31-year-old high-profile Democrat, calling AOC a "little communist from New York City".
Mention of Ocasio-Cortez led to boos from the crowd, as Greene went on to say: "Yeah, lock her up too, that’s a good idea." She also stated that AOC is "not an American" and does not "embrace our American ways".
In response to being called a "little communist", AOC took to Twitter where she responded by sharing a video of Greene's comments, along with the caption: "First of all, I’m taller than her".
The effortless burn has since amassed over 395,000 'likes' and nearly 40,000 retweets in less than 15 hours (as of this writing).
And just in case you were curious, The Independent reports that AOC is one inch taller than Greene, standing at 5ft4".
AOC's simple but effective tweet also received praise from countless Twitter users:
Sadly, however, this is not the first time AOC has had to speak out regarding Greene's persistent attempts at a confrontation.
Last month, Ocasio-Cortez even went as far to say that she believed Greene - who was elected to the House in 2020 - was "deeply unwell".
