“Shark Tank” star and famous investor Kevin O’Leary blasted Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., in a recent interview, saying on OutKick’s “Maintaining with Tyrus” that her district looks like a “Third World country.”
O’Leary criticized the progressive Democrat politician in a clip from Tyrus’ upcoming show, saying the Squad member’s a “great politician” but “horrific” at managing her district.
“I look at AOC, what an incredible, incredibly successful politician she is and what a horrific manager she is,” he told Tyrus, adding, “Her jurisdiction looks like a Third World country.”
“She’s great at social media and making outrageous statements and getting $5 at a time on, you know, every way she can on social. Good for her, but wow, look what she did when Amazon came knocking for 10,000 jobs,” he said.
O’Leary has made this same critique of Ocasio-Cortez for waging a successful political campaign in Queens to block Amazon from building its second headquarters there in 2020.
CEO of Job Creators Network Alfredo Ortiz told Fox News Digital at the time that her campaign cost the city “25,000 good-paying jobs” and that she “sent a message to job creators everywhere that they were no longer welcome in her city.”
