'Could be worse... Ivanka could have been a bar-tender 18 months ago,' Good Morning Britain host Piers Morgan tweeted.
British television personality Piers Morgan on Sunday defended first daughter Ivanka Trump after Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez criticized her for attending the G20 Summit in Osaka, Japan this weekend, which sparked an ongoing Twitter exchange with thousands of social media users weighing in.
Commenting on the video — which showed Ivanka being shunned while trying to join a conversation between Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, French President Emmanuel Macron, British Prime Minister Theresa May, and International Monetary Fund leader Christine Lagarde — Ocasio-Cortez suggested that Ivanka was too unqualified to be at the event and was only present due to nepotism.
In response, Morgan mocked Ocasio-Cortez for being a bartender before she was elected into Congress."Could be worse... Ivanka could have been a bar-tender 18 months ago," theOcasio-Cortez fired back at Morgan 20-minutes-later, writing:"Actually, that would make government better — not worse. Imagine if more people in power spent years of their lives actually working for a living. We'd probably have healthcare and living wages by now.
