Thread: AOC's Climate Change Documentary Experiences Massive Flop-$80 per theater

Democrat darling Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is learning the hard way that she doesn't have many friends outside of politics.

The New York Congresswoman helped produce "To the End" with activist Varshini Prakash, climate policy writer Rhiana Gunn-Wright and political strategist Alexandra Rojas over the past four years. The documentary follows the women as they attempt to pass sweeping climate legislation in Congress has been widely regarded as a flop – only generating about $80 per theater.

While discussing the failure, Fox News's Greg Gutfeld told "The Five" the documentary solidified his hunch about AOC – that she's shirking her responsibilities in Congress.

"Who would go see a movie that's the opposite of entertaining. There's nothing entertaining about that. ... But it does show you how great it is to be a progressive in a liberal, biased culture," he said. "She really doesn't do her job, right. She makes movies, she goes to galas. She sits for glossy, butt-kissing interviews in GQ and other women's mags."

Co-host Jesse Waters noted that he doesn't believe AOC's documentary is authentic, pointing to a point in the film where she can be seen hiking.

"This is what politicians often get confused about: Just because you're popular in politics doesn't mean you're popular anywhere else. In fact, usually people that can't do anything anywhere else go into politics to succeed. And she found out that the hard way..."

Watters said the hiking scenes gives some "fraudulen[ce]" to the film, quipping that AOC grew up in the Westchester and represents the outer boroughs of Queens and the Bronx.

"I have never seen [that]. And she showcases her whole life on social media — You can never see her in private," he said. "Everything is on social media. I've never seen her hike before, but the one time she does a documentary about the environment, she's out there doing the Appalachian Trail: I'm not buying it."

I didn't know she had a documentary and that it's actually her second. The highlights they played over the news story was just so incredibly boring.
