We have a new kerfuffle from Alexandria Ocasio-Cortes. Today's nonsense is about Alexandria saying that she can't afford to rent an apartment in DC until her salary kicks in as a member of Congress. She will earn $174,000 per year in that job. When they reported this news item on Fox News, one of the anchors laughed and Ocasio-Cortes took umbrage at that and claimed that Fox makes fun of the working class people of America.
I'm surprised. I saw many pictures of Ocasio-Cortes on the campaign trail this fall. She dresses in designer clothes. Where did the money for that come from? She had no job during her campaign, but she seemed to have no problem supporting herself. Where did the money for that come from?
One thing is clear: Ocasio-Cortes is not "working class". She's also not poor. So here's my suggestion: don't tell us how you can't afford to rent an apartment. Just go to DC and do your job.
