Last night, Kevin McCarthy spoke out against Joe Biden’s infrastructure plan for over 8 hours. It wasn’t exactly a speech for the ages. In fact it was widely mocked and memed almost immediately after it ended.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez posted a video review of the speech soon after it ended. And according to the New York Congresswoman, he displayed one of the lowest vocabularies she’s ever heard.
She first hit the house minority leader for ripping into issues that are widely popular, noting, “Kevin McCarthy, speaking against unions, speaking against universal child care, universal pre-k.”
Ocasio-Cortez then noted that all of the Republicans in attendance pretty much looked the same. “[McCarthy spoke] along with all these Agent Smits in the background exhibiting the stunning diversity of the Republican party. look at all those different colored ties and haircuts. I have never seen a more diverse Republican party than the one behind Kevin McCarthy right now.”
The progressive Democrat closed with mock praise. “To speak for over an hour with one of the lowest vocabularies I have ever seen, coming from a member of House Leadership. It is stunning to me how long a person can talk, knowing and exhibiting and communicating so little.”
