Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) likely regretted asking why Trump vice presidential candidate JD Vance sat with his legs apart during a recent interview.
In a post still up on X, the far-left Squad leader asked the Trump running mate, “Why are you sitting like that,” in reference to Vance’s sitting posture during an interview over the weekend on the “Full Send Podcast.”

“Balls,” one of the top replies from X user @EndWokeness told AOC, adding, “I would tell you to ask your boyfriend but he probably doesn’t have any.”
Balls.
I would tell you to ask your boyfriend but he probably doesn't have any.

If anyone’s wondering how AOC’s fiancé since 2022 sits, wonder no more.

Other commenters also took AOC to the woodshed over her “manspreading” complaint.

It’s more comfortable for men to sit like this because of our balls.

If you were competent enough to understand the difference between men and women you’d know exactly why.

It's called a penis.
You know, the thing you say women have?

Wait, are you really asking @JDVance to mansplain manspreading?

The responses just got worse for AOC from there, with Trump’s son Donald Trump Jr. chiming in questioning why she was also photographed sitting legs spread at one point.

While AOC likely didn’t intend her post to have the effect it did, the reaction to it shows Democrats aren’t thinking on their feet when it comes to smearing the Trump-Vance ticket.
