AOC is mocked for debuting bizarre new accent at Democrat National Convention
SUMMARY
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's speech at the Democratic National Convention left some viewers puzzled as she appeared to adopt a different accent. The phrase “on our way of life” caught attention for its unusual delivery. Critics on social media questioned, “What accent is AOC using here?” and labeled the speech as “cringe.” Ocasio-Cortez has faced similar accusations before, including a past instance where she used a Southern drawl. Defending her speech style, she stated on Twitter that her accent adapts to different settings. During the speech, she criticized Donald Trump as a “two-bit union buster” and claimed he would “sell this country for $1” to benefit Wall Street. The speech contrasted with her shorter 2020 convention appearance.
