Democratic Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez mocked Republicans Sunday, comparing her political critcs to Dwight Schrute, the overly fastidious fictional character from former sitcom The Office.
Some critics responded to that tweet by taking the"10 people" figure literally, which Ocasio-Cortez called out Sunday. Ocasio-Cortez wrote her comment above a retweet from Twitter user and lawyer Max Kennerly, who was himself trying to counter the criticism of her Saturday remark. Critics jumped out Ocasio-Cortez’s sarcastic use of “like 10 people” after she posted a series of tweets on Saturday, explaining why her and other progressives in Congress want to increase taxes on the wealthiest Americans. She explained that such a policy would only target a small group of extremely wealthy individuals, many who are already using loopholes to pay significantly lower taxes.
And AOC is Vinnie Barbarino from 'Welcome vack Kotter'.

Trump’s threatened China tariffs deepen GOP rift over tradeSenators found a White House meeting on trade last week “not very helpful.” There are still Republicans who actually understand economics, unlike the president. There are still Republicans who don't want to tax Americans, unlike the president, since tariffs are just a tax on Americans... Are we still pretending there are good republicans? And they’ll be “troubled” and “concerned” and nothing will change.
