Cardi B backs AOC for 2024 White House run, New York Dem responds

"She better run for president when she turns 35," the “WAP” rapper wrote of Ocasio-Cortez after seeing a video of the New York congresswoman dancing to her song “Bodak Yellow” while discussing access to dental care.
Ocasio-Cortez quickly responded on Twitter, writing, "Women Against Patriarchy (WAP) 2020,” using the acronym from the singer's new song title -- but substituting a more G-rated meaning.

"This is my first time having health insurance in years, and even THEN it didn't really cover the cost of this -- but it did cover other doc appts so I could more easily save."
