Her republican challenger is an economics professor at St. John's. Could you imagine the bloodbath that would have taken place during that debate? From her republican opponent's website:
While also proclaiming publicly that Donald Trump was afraid to confront "a girl" during her self-promotion crusade, she is now afraid of a senior citizen who happens to be a professor of economics at St. John's University. Dr. Pappas was prepared to debunk all of her myths about a socialist system and spending plan of "free things" having a $40 trillion price tag according to an independent research organization. The Ocasio-Cortez plan could only be satisfied by taxing the lower and middle classes.
