Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez from New York is facing backlash after saying that Elon Musk is “one of the most unintelligent billionaires” she has ever seen. During an Instagram Live video, she shared her thoughts about Musk, who runs Tesla and SpaceX.
“This guy is not smart,” Ocasio-Cortez said. She expressed concern about Musk’s views on government spending, saying he lacks knowledge about important topics. She described him as “morally vacant” and said that he doesn’t understand the systems he talks about.
Recently, Musk’s cryptocurrency, DOGE, got the chance to access federal payments. This upset many Democrats, including Ocasio-Cortez. She criticized Republicans too, saying they “don’t do their homework,” and pointed out that they are putting very young people in charge of big decisions.
She also mentioned that Donald Trump has given a lot of power to Musk, claiming he has hired young people to help manage government systems.
Many people on social media are mocking Ocasio-Cortez’s comments. Some of her critics pointed out that Musk is trying to go to Mars, while she struggles with local issues. They believe her comments made her look foolish.
