Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) countered at a former congressional Republican prospect who slammed her for playing the video game “Animal Crossing: New Horizons” throughout the coronavirus lockdown.

DeAnna Lorraine, who this year released a stopped working run for the seat of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), took exception to Ocasio-Cortez’s Thursday afternoon/evening venture into the virtual world throughout which she “visited” advocates.

“Are you kidding me? We’re paying you to play Animal Crossing? OMG,” tweeted Lorraine.
