Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) suggested this week that Manchin was racist and sexist for having \u201cremaining questions\u201d about whether he would vote to confirm her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJeff Sessions was so openly racist that even Reagan couldn\u2019t appoint him,\u201d Ocasio-Cortez claimed. \u201cManchin voted to confirm him.
