Rick Scott's lack of 'critical thinking + honesty is embarrassing to the institution,' the Democratic congresswoman said. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has 'embarrassed [Democrats] to the point of irrelevance already,' the GOP senator fired back.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez traded blows with Republican Sen. Rick Scott on Monday over which political figure was more “embarrassing” to Congress, an exchanged sparked by the latter’s criticisms of the Green New Deal.

Scott added: “What's next? Will we have to register sharp knives? Maybe @AOC will make us register every time we buy meat as part of her #GreenNewDeal. The Democrats are officially the @BernieSanders Party. They want America to be less prosperous and less free.” Scott responded to Ocasio-Cortez’s jab later on Monday afternoon in a tweet where he asserted that the 29-year-old self-described democratic socialist “doesn’t understand sarcasm” and argued that she was the only that has embarrassed the institution through her performance as a congresswoman in office.
