Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) obviously thinks she is smarter than Elon Musk.
The New York Congresswoman, who is known for her far-left socialist views, made the comments during a live Instagram video in which she bemoaned Musk’s influence over the federal government.
Musk, who is heading up the Department of Government Efficiency, is currently examining and analyzing various government departments and agencies with a view to making recommendations about cutting waste and saving taxpayer money.
“This dude is probably one of the most unintelligent billionaires I have ever met or seen or witnessed,” she complained.
“This dude is not smart, and the danger in the lack of intelligence and the lack of expertise that Elon has.”
”I mean, this guy is one of the most morally vacant, but also just least knowledgeable about these systems that we know of.”

As well as being the wealthiest man in history, Musk has also revolutionized industries such as automotive and space travel and is also working on solutions to issues such as paralysis that he hopes to cure with his brain implant company Neuralink.
AOC, meanwhile, worked as a bartender before going into politics and since then has made her living off the public purse.
Last month, she sent a bizarre fundraising email to her supporters in which she compared Trump, Musk and the Republican Party to Nazis.
“I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind a presidential seal in this country: we hate Nazis,” she wrote. “Kind of a foundational, defining thing.”
“In fact, two of the most foundational, defining things about American history is that we beat the Confederates and we beat the Nazis.”

Shortly after Trump took office, she urged people to engage in civil disobedience against his administration, particularly with regard to illegal immigration.
“One of the most simple things that we can do is just not comply,” she told her supporters in another Instagram livestream.
“And that’s not to say that what they’re trying to do isn’t serious. It is serious. But we should not consent in advance.“
