TIME Writer on Those Mocking Their AOC Cover: They’re Just ‘Jealous’

EXCERPT:

MELVIN: “Is she being well received by her -- her colleagues in the lower chamber? Do her fellow Democrats respect her?”
ALTER: “So, yes. So, there are certainly some Democrats who are a little annoyed that she’s getting so much airspace and so many headlines. And they think that — and they -- you know, frankly, I think seem a little jealous that she’s getting so much attention, they would like to be on the cover of 'Time' magazine. But everyone that we spoke to who has worked with her said that she’s kind, that she’s prepared. She, you know, she shows up. She does her homework.”
