As I mentioned a few days back, Claire McCaskill of Missouri spent her final days in the Senate being quite the sore loser.
It’s been fun to watch, to be honest. This woman more than had it coming.
Lately, she’s spent the majority of her time b*tching that AOC stole her thunder:
“There is so much drama over that New York woman, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, like she’s the new shining object,” said Claire McCaskill in an exit interview with Joe Nocera https://t.co/zvATaZqRXH

Giiiiirl. This is embarrassing. Settle down, sweetheart.
“I worked on a bill that brought down the price of hearing aids. It was a big deal because hearing aids aren’t covered by Medicare. But nobody wrote about it, so nobody knew about it. But there is so much drama over that New York woman, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, like she’s the new shining object. That’s how the media covers stuff now. And some of us are passing good old-fashioned bills, and we get nothing. Gimme a break!”
Sorry Claire, but Democrats are moving from away from corrupt politicians of old (aka you) and onto semi-literate socialist bartenders!
ANYWHOOOO… this was a WEEKS ago. But she hasn’t let up:

Claire McCaskill on Dems/Ocasio-Cortez: “The rhetoric is cheap. Getting results is a lot harder.”
On what GOP senators privately say about Trump: “The guy is nuts, he doesn’t have a grasp of the issues, he’s making rash decisions.”

SAYS THE CORRUPT OUTGOING SENATOR WITH THE PRIVATE JET.
Now, AOC is fighting back.
According to Daily Wire:
Usually when you’re new on a job, you keep a low profile, listen to your superiors and focus on the work at hand. But Ocasio-Cortez has done just the opposite, even joining a protest right outside the office of soon-to-be Speaker of the House, Rep. Nancy Pelosi.
But Ocasio-Cortez, a Democratic socialist pushing free health care for everyone, fired back on Saturday.
“Not sure why fmr Sen. McCaskill keeps going on TV to call me a “thing” and “shiny object,” but it’s pretty disappointing,” she wrote on Twitter. “McCaskill promised she’d “100% back Trump up” on his anti-immigrant rhetoric & lost. In MO, almost all progressive ballot issues won.”

And she got rolling.
“I’m also not sure why McCaskill is covering for the GOP by saying they “secretly think Trump is nuts”. Nobody cares. Trump is melting down our institutions and inciting division between people. At any time GOP could have checked him and choose not to. They’re accomplices.”

MEEEOW! So I guess McCaskill is basically a GOP operative.
GOOOT IT.
