    I guess if the dress, the shoes and cost of the event and the message on the dress doesn't raise a bit of hypocrisy in your mind then the DNC indoctrination has succeeded..

    So you think she’s actually a moderate who doesn’t support higher taxes?

    No it doesn’t. Saying the rich should pay more, isn’t saying nobody should be rich or have nice dresses.

    When you're graced with nice things from the rich and preach about the poor, ya, she is a hypocrite.. The dress was all for you and other adoring Democrats ;)

    So like this?

    We're also going to fix our inner cities. Forty-five percent of African-American children are - under the age six - are living in poverty.

    Donald Trump

    it’s idiotic to claim if you’re not poor you can’t care about them…even if that person is Trjmp

    You don't like AOC for going to a fancy gala, but you love Trump who dresses everything in gold and is one of the crassest people I can think of?
    Fake outrage at it's finest.
    You are not a shining star of the Iowa school system.

    NY politicians are invited to attend for free, she delivered a clear message, and she puts her money where her mouth is in terms of drafting legislation and voting.

    Sure it does, she were a dress bought by the same folks she wants to tax, so instead of taking the money and buying a truckload of food and clothing for the poor folk she SAYS she represents she, well you know, the picture told you what you needed to justify this show of blatant hypocrisy :)

    Isn't it ironic that suddenly she's a media whore who sold her ass as a billboard... I can't stop laughing....
