Well you cannot reasonable talk to her, and that counts as to the outside. https://twitter.com/aoc/status/1099126500924760064?lang=en

Let's be frank. She made a statement, and maybe not in the most polite matter (she was clearly frustrated). Yet she didn't say anything she shouldn't have said, as she made a clear opinion with even a few sublines to properly motivate it.

I'm not saying I agree with her, as when it comes to climate change issues I've already said over million of things that I think politicians should take note of, and which I believe could actually solve something (heck don't we all think that about ourselves) which are not completely in line with what politicians now strive for in general. Yet, "a horse is a horse of course of course" on a picture showing her teeth like that, does neither imply her being right nor wrong... Only that her teeth look like those of a horse... Like that really matters.

It's over a policy that would utterly destroy the economy and led to the death of million if not billions of people later admitted to be about changing the economy rather than helping the environment. There is more like chasing jobs away from New York due to not understanding how taxes work then bragging about, and mistaking accounting errors for actual money, and utterly refusing debates.

In the end I think it is the lack of self critical thought rather than an actual lack of intelligence. So perhaps there is hope that she will actually improve.

"and mistaking accounting errors for actual money, and utterly refusing debates."

Oh really? That would make her a female version of Donald Trump. Good to know.

Now as a matter of fact, she challenges you to debate, but to really come up with good argumentation and not just whining, and if all you can do is whining, then you won't get anything done. And all I can say is that on that point she's right. She may have needed to state it a little more professional as the tone of her tweet is indeed a littlebit rude.

Now when it comes to environmental issues, yeah, there's a lot bullshit going on and politicians are not always clever enough to distinguish fact from fiction either. I must be frank on that one. And when people lose awareness of the difference of fact and fiction we are a bit in trouble (and for that reason I think Greenpeace should be denied access to any climate debate, but that's not relevant in this discussion).

Now much of debate comes from the climate change discussion destroying jobs, and I think that is what you are about, right? Some people said that you should not keep on selling old turn-disc telephones in a time everybody uses a cell phone. But hey now that nobody uses a turn-disc-telephone selling smart phones in stead works right? The environmental challenges do also create jobs, you know. You just need to open your mind a bit and have eye for that. Now I am still not happy about the climate discussion the way it's being held right now in politics all around the globe. And some points are far from realistic also. Yet comparing somebody to a horse doesn't make a statement. You're just saying somebody is ugly (now I must say you did manage to find a picture which was shot at the worst moment you could imagine). But apart from what I think about her... I feel also a bit sorry for horses that you use these noble animals as an insult. And yes an insult is all that meme is.

When it comes to that "Green New Deal" I will have to read all the details before I can fully judge it. Knowing politics it won't be something I can fully agree with. But I must say I never could make the connection between comparing a politician with a horse, and her opinion about environmental issues (or any other political issue for that matter).

Yes, she is very much a female version of Trump.

And she haven't challenged anyone to debate, rather in response to challenges to debates, she whined about sexism and the like and refused saying she didn't have to

The rest seem to be something you admit you do not know enough about, and yet say that I need to open my mind on it anyway. Look it up first, and then comment on it.
