Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez says she can't afford an apartment in DC

[goodwithagun]

Just like, pay for it!

Socialists get into government to get rich.

It sure worked that way for Bernie Sanders.

Incidentally, here's a good critique of her from August: The belligerent ignorance of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

Good link, @mountaineer

Yeah, like Maxine, Nancy, Diane, Sheila and on and on.  Once they put their roots down, they're there.  Like poison ivy.  Hard to eradicate.

Nancy and DiFi, at least weren't stupid(initially), Maxine and Sheila got race on their side. I really don't believe this whack job can count on race to protect her from her stupid for very long and the more the liberals push for illegals the more they will alienate the Blacks. It should be interesting because the only people Blacks and Hispanics hate more than Whites are each other, at least that has been my first hand experience in SoCal.

More like Kudzu.

This woman promises years of entertainment

Yet she lives in New York City, a city that has astronomically high rent too, and can somehow afford to live there.

Good point. Is DC any costlier than NYC?

I think it would depend on what part of NYC she lives in.  Manhattan -- surely it costs plenty.  But if she lives in, say, Queens, she might be able to get a space for less. 

The same for DC and most other  major city .  There are the tonier sections, but also some that may be more affordable.  Perhaps those more affordable places just aren't suited for a highfalutin congressperson like her.

I can hear Mick Jagger singing "look at that stupid girl" every time I see her.

[Wingnut]

Point is, she has options, but like a good socislist, she wants others to foot the bill.

 

[DCPatriot]

@DCPatriot ?

It's very expensive, if you expect to live near Capitol Hill or Northwest, DC.

But I still think Manhattan is more costly.

She can come live with me until she gets paid.

Maybe someone should suggest to her that she hang around the bus station? There are lots of guys there ready to give food,shelter,and employment to young women with her intelligence and qualifications.
