President Trump said Tuesday ahead of his State of the Union speech that he believes New York progressive Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez will challenge incumbent Sen. Chuck Schumer one day for his Senate seat representing New York.
“I think she will kick his a--,” the president said during a lunch with journalists to preview his speech.
Cortez, 30, a Democratic socialist who has endorsed Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders for president, was elected to the House in 2018. But there has been speculation that she could launch a primary challenge against Schumer, 69, the Senate’s top Democrat when he is up for reelection in 2022.
For her part, Ocasio-Cortez tweeted Tuesday afternoon that she will not attend the speech.
