(Molly Bruns, Headline USA) Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., is terrified of many things—death by Trump supporters, bad treatment from her leftist colleagues and even an upcoming marriage to a white man.
The Squad-leading leftist appeared on the cover of the latest edition of GQ, posing in a bespoke navy-blue suit, in contrast to many of her constituents who can barely afford food and medicine.
According to The Daily Wire, the cover promised a “conversation about masculinity, power, and politics in a post-Roe America.”
“I hold two contradictory things at the same time,” Ocasio-Cortez said in the softball interview. “One is just the relentless belief that anything is possible.
“But at the same time, my experience here has given me a front-row seat to how deeply and unconsciously, as well as consciously, so many people in this country hate women. And they hate women of color.”

In the profile, AOC described her drive to work on Capitol Hill, claiming that she fears she may be killed because of other people’s unlimited hatred for women.
“People ask me questions about the future,” she said. “And realistically, I can’t even tell you if I’m going to be alive in September. And that weighs very heavily on me.”
“And it’s not just the right wing. Misogyny transcends political ideology: left, right, center.”
In the fawning article, she is dubbed as the “political voice of a generation,” and a “cultural star.”
AOC also discussed the harrowing experience of being engaged to a white man, as well as claiming that the Democrat’s treatment of her has been the most disappointing experience of all.
“Imagine working a job and your bosses don’t like you and folks on your team are suspicious of you. And then the competing company is trying to kill you,” she said.
Social media users were quick to react to AOC’s open political vitriol, and oversharing of her relationship with her fiance.
