Dumb blonde jokes. They're overwrought, trite, and pretty outdated. So it's no surprise that one that came straight from the mouth of a GOP House candidate and directed at Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez didn't go over so well.

GOP House candidate Marjorie Taylor Greene attempted a joke at Ocasio-Cortez's expense on Twitter Monday and it failed miserably.

Greene, whose Georgia campaign is being supported by Donald Trump, attempted to hit at AOC's intelligence on Monday in a tweet.

“As a blonde woman, I would like to take a moment to thank Congresswoman @AOC. She has single handily [sic] put an end to all ‘dumb blonde’ jokes. Blondes everywhere appreciate your service and your sacrifice!” Greene tweeted.

In response, Ocasio-Cortez retweeted Greene, writing, "Don't worry Mrs. Greene, I completely understand why you need to swing + miss at my intellect to make yourself feel better. You seem to have some trouble spelling your own insults correctly. Next time try 'single-handedly,' it'll work better."

She signed off her tweet writing "Good luck writing legislation!"

It's not the first time Greene has come for AOC and failed.

Greene attempted and failed to get under AOC's skin earlier this month.

In September, the candidate shared a photo of herself holding a rifle next to images of AOC and other Democratic lawmakers Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib to her Facebook page.

She captioned the post “Squad’s worst nightmare." It was soon removed by Facebook who cited violations of its policies.

It didn't take long for AOC's supporters to strike back at Green to defend the congresswoman.

"Those who are jealous and envious of others typical attack those whom they envy because they need to feel important and try to gain some attention for themselves," one user commented in the thread. "You are where you are @AOC because of your work and dedication. Mrs Greene knows she can't compete so she attacks."

According to People, "Greene has a track record of embracing false stories publicized by QAnon, a conspiracy theory-fueled group which alleges there's a group of Democratic pedophiles operating around the country."
