Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) fell victim to an embarrassing moment on the House floor recently when attempting to make an argument against a Republican bill. While speaking to her colleagues, Ocasio-Cortez inadvertently laughed at her own joke, an experience that quickly turned from humor to horror as soon as she realized it wasn't funny.
Though Ocasio-Cortez attempted to play it off as an "ahh just me being sassy!" moment, the awkward silence in the chamber when she followed it up with "get it?" made it clear that nobody shared in her mirth. She was later heard to mutter "maybe I should move to Mexico...or a desert island and never be seen again."
