Socialist congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was killed on social media after she bragged about Amazon “coming to NYC anyway - without requiring the public to finance shady deals, helipad handouts for Jeff Bezos, & corporate giveaways.” What she failed to mention or comprehend is that the NYC office will create just 6% of the 25,000 jobs Amazon H2 would have if NYC politicians could have struck a deal.

Plenty of twitter users pointed out that she was celebrating an inferior deal ad did not understand how, even with tax breaks, the Amazon H2 deal would have been a boon for the NYC economy. Other liberal twitter users predictably said they were more interested in tax revenue than jobs.

After being called out on her ridiculous tweets, AOC got defensive and started trying to defend her position with a host of left wing and anti-business talking points.
