‘Nice dodge’! AOC responds to Ted Cruz’s science question with two tweets and no answer

As we told you yesterday, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said that VP Mike Pence “literally does not believe in science.”
That tweet caused Sen. Ted Cruz to test Ocasio-Cortez’s “belief” in science:
AOC was more than happy to answer that question! Actually, no she wasn’t, but she did talk about everything except the point Cruz was trying to confirm: 
Sen. Cruz, while I understand you judge people’s intelligence by the lowest income they’ve had, I hold awards from MIT Lincoln Lab &others for accomplishments in microbiology.

Secondly, I’m surprised you’re asking about chromosomes given that you don’t even believe in evolution. https://twitter.com/tedcruz/status/1233130604436369409

Fellow squad member Rep. Rashida Tlaib thinks AOC really took Cruz to the woodshed:
But those paying attention noticed that AOC never addressed the question: 
Nice political pivot without answering.

Do you scientifically believe there are 2 biological sexes?

Yes or no. We’ll wait.

Welcome to Dodge City!
And AOC’s fans cheered.
(I'm dead serious, this is what she means when she says she was honored by MIT & Lincoln Lab for achievements in "microbiology." She won a science fair. This is some truly legendary resume-puffing.)

It turns out I was wrong: she didn't get 1st place in the high school science fair, she got 2nd place.

I regret the misinformation.

Judging from the replies there are a lot of people choosing not to notice that.
