Well this is confusing. Someone else tested it here by going to the retweeter's profile first and it apparently worked.
The next issue there is what made him go to this zaza profile in the first place that he'd see the AOC retweet and reply from there?
I follow Ramzpaul and he retweeted that. It showed up on my timeline (my prev post where I tried it out was just a random person who retweeted something).
As you can see, it doesn't show Ramzpaul's handle when replying.
My whole thing is:
He'd either have to had followed the person to come up on that random retweet.
If not a retweet, he should've included the person's tweet AND the part where it shows who he's replying to. Even from the picture you showed, Twitter mobile does show the people you're replying to, so he had to have erased that information from the screenshots.

All I can think of is Twitter mobile, but even I wouldn't trust it.
I figure it's worth posting my evidence.
