    Perhaps fellow Dem Party member Stormy Daniels could offer her a hint regarding sideline jobs.

    She doesn't have the self-awareness nor baseline intelligence to be embarrassed. But the utter idiots who voted her into office should be very embarrassed.

    The average rent in DC is $2,072.00. The average rent in New York is $3,245.00. As they say in China, sum ting wong.

    She could also demonstrate her inclusion and belief in diversity by living among regular DC people.

    Or she/it can sleep on a bar somewhere.

    She/it is probably used to doing that.

    Who produces much?

    China?

    Basically one supports decency or one does not.

    It seems to me that affordable housing and healthcare are basic human rights.

    I bet Jesus would agree.

    She can work at a strip club and make some bucks for rent.
    OR call Soros for a loan.

    Dumb azz ain’t sworn in yet, so she don’t get paid.
    A real dingaling.

    Oh wait, another suggestion.
    Call LOSER Beto and get some loot. Lol

    Hahaha! How do you pay for healthcare for all? According to Ocasio-Cortez you just pay for it. So why doesn't she use the same philosophy to get an apartment? Could it be that the socialist economic model is pure bullshit?

    She is young. We need fresh blood in our Congress obviously and she is a breath of fresh air. That she cannot afford to live in DC
    should not disqualify her. She will get there. That most can afford to live in DC simply means that they had money and has nothing to do with their qualifications.

    Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez IS SHADY.

    Nice $3500.00 suit.

    Who paid for that?

    The same guy who bought you a seat in Congress ?


    Cortez's $3,500 Suit Fits a Longstanding Socialist Tradition

    Despite the core assertions made by its adherents and promoters, in practice socialism is always an exercise in privilege.​


    The new multi-ethnic facade the phony DNC is pushing, after Obama deported 6 million Mexicans,
    just a last gasp attempt to appeal and try to hold onto their dwindling voting base - since all the
    real Progressives called BS on Obama-Clintons corporatist, pro-war dogma, CIA backed regime changes, - and Bernies patch-work, false, 'Independant' persona while voting for the funding of any and all wars - incl. arms for Syria 'moderate' rebels ( ubiquitously known as al Nusra, ISIS) and
    like the so called Progressive Caucus, Keith Ellison voted for more weapons shipped to Iraq, Syria 'rebels' ( aka terrorists) who indiscriminately kill civillians, use human shields, IEDs, gas bombs, etc., the phony DNC in Washington decided to use metoo and other gender, ethnic, sexual, 'equality' and divide and conquer on steroids, via Hollwood Celeb endorsements while bankrolling 'sectarian' DEATH SQUADS in foreign, sovereign states. ILLEGAL WARS ...

    LOCK HER UP
    [​IMG]​




    FYI Historical FACT:

    the NAACP ebdorsed both the (illegal 'police action') KOREA, VIETNAM WARS
    and discouraged Dr. King from speaking out against VIETNAM

    meaning: the NAACP historically were establishment controlled Federally controlled activists astroturf party, like ACLU run by govmnt informants, infiltrators, and deep state people, much like Black Lives Matter is a Democrat Party controlled astroturf front /PR campaign to control public outrage against.the police

    ....

    None. Because she has never experience the personal and financial risk of starting one with the prospect of failing. Most start up businesses fail by the way.

    I have a friend who started a business and failed, went bankrupt. I felt terrible for him, but he didn't let it stop him. He didn't let that failure label him, and based on what he learned, eventually started another business and succeeded. I have huge respect for him but I guess you just have contempt?

    Really? She looked pretty comfortable in the $3500 dollar suit, and $600 dollar shoes she "borrowed" for a photo op. Fidel Castro wore the same grimy fatigues, and dingy jogging outfit for 50 years ... just sayin'. :;): I'm also willing to bet DC rents, especially in working class areas, are cheaper than NYC's.

    Really? It doesn't matter how much of an idiot she is, she will vote the way they want, so it's a win for them.
