AOC Confirms She Isn’t Good at Arithmetic

“I represent many more [people] than Joe Manchin.”

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) represents approximately 697,000 people in her congressional district.

This AOC absurdity occurred while she was being interviewed by MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough on his Morning Joe program.
