Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-New York, had a fascinating reaction to the idea of America\u2019s \u201cfirst gay president.\u201d<\/p>\n

Approached by TMZ, AOC donned a massive grin to answer their mostly goofy, innocuous questions. But it was her answer to one question in particular that caught the attention of X users, let\u2019s see if you can guess which one.<\/p>\n

TMZ: \u201cAre we going to have a female president first or a g*y president?\u201d<\/p>\n

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY): \u201cWell, we don\u2019t know if we\u2019ve already had a g*y president. I think there\u2019s chances maybe we have but I don\u2019t know.\u201d pic.twitter.com\/fLmVOsa7Cy<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cHey, if you could click your fingers and Tucker Carlson was president, instead of Donald Trump, would you do it?\u201d the interviewer asked, prompting an eye-roll from the progressive lawmaker.<\/p>\n

\u201cUh, errr, I don\u2019t know. I don\u2019t think so, but I- it\u2019s kind of a toss-up. I\u2019m not really sure,\u201d she responded.<\/p>\n

\u201cOkay, last thing then. What do you think we\u2019re going to have first? Are we going to have a female president or a gay president?\u201d the interviewer asked.<\/p>\n

\u201cOhhh, well we don\u2019t know if we\u2019ve already had a gay president,\u201d AOC said. \u201cI think there are chances that maybe we have but I don\u2019t know.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you had to guess, what do you think we\u2019ll have first because a lot of people are like \u2018We tried female candidates a couple times in a row, they didn\u2019t work out.\u2019 So Democrats are now a little bit hesitant about doing it again,\u201d the interviewer pressed, trying to nail down a real answer to the question.<\/p>\n

\u201cHonestly, I think anything can happen. I don\u2019t really buy into the skepticism. A man has lost almost every presidential election as well so when it comes to women, I think it\u2019s more about what we\u2019re actually fighting for as opposed to the body that we\u2019re in. And so I think it\u2019s about not taking big money, fixing campaign finance reform, and trying to fight for people and raise wages and help people make a living,\u201d she said. \u201cIf we have someone who fights for the right things and speaks to the right people then maybe we can overcome the gender gap and that, and be able to make history. But I think it\u2019s really important that we\u2019re able to talk in a way that really speaks to people\u2019s hearts.\u201d<\/p>\n

One user pointed out that if this were the case, then it would mean \u201cwe could have already had a female president as well,\u201d which would really take the wind out of the left\u2019s gender politics sails.<\/p>\n

\n

Well then this means we could have already had a female president as well!<\/p>\n

Others had their own answers for her \u201cfirst gay president\u201d theory:<\/p>\n

Buchanan was g@y. Even had a \u201cfriend\u201d love with him in wh. It wasn\u2019t a secret.<\/p>\n
