Donald Trump Jr. Joins Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in Bashing Media: ‘Imagine What It’s Like When They Actually Hate You’

First son Donald Trump Jr. on Wednesday welcomed Democratic Congresswoman-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez “to our world” when she attacked the media for a report on her she suggested was fake.

“Welcome to our world...” Trump Jr. tweeted at Ocasio-Cortez. “You think that's bad? Imagine what it's like when they actually hate you.”

Trump Jr. quote tweeted Ocasio-Cortez’s post from Tuesday afternoon, in which she linked and bashed a Politico story with two anonymous sources stating she is working to unseat Democratic Representative Hakeem Jeffries in the 2020 primary and has already recruited a challenger.

“One disappointment about DC is the gossip that masquerades as ‘reporting,’” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted. “This story has:

“- Not a SINGLE named or verifiable source

“- Only ONE on-the-record comment, which is a denial.”

Ocasio-Cortez concluded: “My dad had a name for junk articles like this: ‘Birdcage lining.’”

She continued to bash the media outlet in another tweet.
