Yeah, this video is what started this thread. The selective editing has already been exposed in a link posted by MJD on page 1.
I still won’t notice it. It’s a Y chromosome thing. I never stopped to consider it before but Dan my be short fir Danielle.
If I got a new job with a $174k salary, I'd probably go shopping for clothes to match the workplace, too.
Early in her campaign when she stated stuff which was asinine, disjointed and not well thought out that she would have to get with her leftist advocacy groups to be coached up on what to say. I'm guessing they are doing a total body transformation with her.
I have a faint recollection that Sarah Palin came under harsh criticism as McCain's running mate over her clothing budget during the campaign. So it apparently is not unheard of for politicians to have a clothing budget during a campaign. I just find it curious that the one avowed socialist congresswoman may be receiving such largess in her capacity as a regular congresswoman, not as part of a campaign. I wonder if any of the other congresspeople - men or women - are recipients of such gratuity.
I would haggle with the assumption of $5k/month in rent, but you may also be low on her taxes, so let's call it a wash.
$174k - $55k - $60k = $59k
$59k / 12 = $4,900/month after taxes & rent.
Seems like I could afford some new clothes on that budget.
My wife does not indulge in tailor made designer clothing, but she can easily spend $500 - $600 on an outfit. At those prices she does not have so many outfits she can wear a different one (or two, as does AOC) every day for weeks on end. That would require an investment of tens of thousands of dollars.
I don’t know the legal requirements. Is a member of Congress required to maintain a residence in their home district? If so Ms. AOC will be covering expenses for two residences will she not? How do you suppose she gets from home to the House chambers? Are congress persons given chaufered limousines? If not do you expect she rides the Metro, or does she have a car with those related expenses? How does she travel between DC and Brooklyn? I guess congress people have a really sweet healthcare plan do they not? Are they expected to pay for any of it, or is it gratis? Are her meals free? My point is DC is considerably more expensive to live in than Oklahoma. I don’t think $174K goes as far as you might expect. I’m not meaning to begrudge the benefits the lady receives. I’m just curious who is extending the benefits, and toward what purpose. An inquiring mind wants to know!

First, you’ll never understand Trump if you think he’s not all that smart. That’s such a weird conceit to share with the likes of CUp, but I digress.
As regards AOC...
