Shark Tank star unleashes on AOC in brutal on-air take-down

Shark Tank star Kevin O'Leary slammed Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, branding the New York congresswoman 'one of the worst managers' he's ever seen and claiming he would 'fire her' if he lived in her district.

The business mogul unleashed on AOC during an appearance on Fox News' 'The Story' on Monday, calling out her track record in Congress - and accusing her of spending all her time posting on social media.

'I admire AOC for her marketing prowess,' O'Leary said. 'But she's one of the worst managers I've ever seen.'

'If I lived in her jurisdiction, which to me is one of the worst managed in the country, I would fire her and hire somebody way better,' he added.

The wealthy investor criticized Ocasio-Cortez's rejection of Amazon's second headquarters in New York.

'She destroyed the opportunities of 10,000 people when she rejected the Amazon facility there a long time ago - I've never forgiven her for that,' he said.

'But I admire her ability to just get in front of her phone, post on social media, raise $10-15 dollars at a time by saying outrageous things over and over again.' 

He challenged viewers who live in her jurisdiction to 'ask what she's done for you lately except post this stuff for social media.'

O'Leary's comments came in response to AOC's recent criticism of Elon Musk's political influence and her claims that America has become an 'oligarchy.'

'I don't think we're witnessing the start of an oligarchy. I think we are fully here,' she said last week.

O'Leary defended the Tesla CEO, praising his 'incredible track record.'

'(Elon Musk) is a guy who has incredible track record and amazing executional skills. He's simply saying one thing, he's gonna find a lot of waste in government.

'You can endorse them or reject them as you wish ... but he's going to post it on his global network and put a lot of pressure on lawmakers on both sides of the aisles to go get it done. I like this, this is interesting.'

This comes as Ocasio-Cortez joined the picket line alongside thousands of Amazon workers who decided to strike just days before Christmas.

Workers from seven Amazon facilities across the US walked off the job last Thursday in a bid to pressure the company to come to a labor agreement during one of the busiest shopping periods of the year.

Members of Teamsters local unions joined the picket line after Amazon ignored a December 15 deadline that the union set for contract negotiations.

On Sunday, AOC decided to show her support for workers as she marched around with signs and made a speech at the Teamsters strike in Queens.

'Tis' the season! And if you all can deliver packages, you should be able to afford packages for your family, to afford the things that you need for your babies, for your families, for your neighborhood,' the progressive Democrat said, bundled up in a Teamsters hat and jacket.

'And so we're here to support you all in making sure that we do that,' she said, adding that 'New York has got your back.'
