AOC ripped for ‘fake’ accent during fiery DNC speech

New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has been mocked as “cringe” and “bizarre” after she was accused of putting on a fake new accent during her fiery Democratic National Convention speech.

The lefty congresswoman, 34, was ripped on social media in the wake of her rousing, minutes-long address to delegates in Chicago on Monday night — with many asking, “What accent is AOC using here?”

Footage circulating online pointed to a particularly fired-up portion of Ocasio-Cortez’s address when she took aim at former President Donald Trump.

“I, for one, am tired of hearing about how a two-bit union buster thinks of himself as more of a patriot than the woman who fights every single day to lift working people from under the boots of greed, trampling on our way of life,” the progressive rep raged.

Some critics accused her of adopting an apparent Southern drawl as she shouted to the crowd.

“AOC speech was cringe. The fake accent was way too much for me. Back snapped. I called it. DNC is cringe as all get out,” one user posted on X.

“Preacher AOC debuting her new accent,” another wrote.

One critic chimed in: “Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez developed a new phony accent in the middle of delivering her very painful speech.”

“I’m starting to think AOC yelling in her new southern accent was the highlight,” one person tweeted as she ripped the overall tone of the “snoozefest” DNC.

Still, the left-wing rep was a hit with her fellow Democrats.

Attendees chanted “AOC” as she walked out on stage and portions of her speech were, at times, drowned out by huge applause and cheers.

The congresswoman, who hails from the Bronx, has been ripped in the past for adopting what critics have derided as a phony accent.

In one 2019 speech, Ocasio-Cortez was accused of speaking with a Southern accent while in front of a majority-black audience at the Rev. Al Sharpton’s National Action Network convention.

She fired back at the time, raging: “Folks talking about my voice can step right off.”

“Any kid who grew up in a distinct linguistic culture & had to learn to navigate class enviros at school/work knows what’s up,” she tweeted. “My Spanish is the same way.”
