Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez because she’s young and attractive. The 57-year-old “Adam Carolla Show” host dropped the controversial bombshell during a recent appearance on “Hannity.”“Here’s a quick thought experiment: if AOC was fat and in her 60s, would anyone listen to another thing she ever said?” the “Man Show” creator told Sean Hannity in the inflammatory interview.The talk show host responded, “Oh, boy.
