   New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has been mocked as “cringe” and   
   “bizarre” after she was accused of putting on a fake new accent during her   
   fiery Democratic National Convention speech.   
      
   The lefty congresswoman, 34, was ripped on social media in the wake of her   
   rousing, minutes-long address to delegates in Chicago on Monday night — with   
   many asking, “What accent is AOC using here?”   
      
   Footage circulating online pointed to a particularly fired-up portion of   
   Ocasio-Cortez’s address when she took aim at former President Donald Trump.   
      
   “I, for one, am tired of hearing about how a two-bit union buster thinks of   
   himself as more of a patriot than the woman who fights every single day to   
   lift working people from under the boots of greed, trampling on our way of   
   life,” the progressive    
   rep raged.   
      
   Some critics accused her of adopting an apparent Southern drawl as she shouted   
   to the crowd.   
      
   “AOC speech was cringe. The fake accent was way too much for me. Back   
   snapped. I called it. DNC is cringe as all get out,” one user posted on X.   
      
   “Preacher AOC debuting her new accent,” another wrote.   
      
   One critic chimed in: “Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez developed a new phony accent   
   in the middle of delivering her very painful speech.”   
      
   She never was very smart, but she can suck wax off paper.
