Piers Morgan takes jab at Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, calls her an 'overhyped charlatan, a Donald Trump in high heels'

However, he agreed that the young Democrat has become a 'rapid-rising superstar in US politics' and acknowledged her 'remarkable' feat of becoming the youngest woman in US Congress

British journalist Piers Morgan has again unleashed a blistering attack against a personality making headlines, this time it is the youngest Congresswoman in the history of the United States, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY). Morgan slammed Ocasio-Cortez, saying that her initials AOC stand for "Annoying Overhyped Charlatan."

Morgan began his criticism of the young Democrat by noting the number of post-it notes stuck to a plaque outside her office, praising the Congresswoman. In a column written for MailOnline, he noted ironically: "We know about these post-it notes because in recent days Ms Ocasio-Cortez has repeatedly tweeted about them to her 2.6 million Twitter followers. 'I'll keep these up as long as they stick,' she declared, ecstatically."
