Apparently, like Bernie, being a good socialist really works for AOC.
From the Washington Examiner:
“We need to kick luxury real estate lobbyists to the curb and defend working people’s way of life,” Ocasio-Cortez said last March. “Skyrocketing cost of living is a national crisis that CAN be addressed. It’s not just an NYC issue – it’s happening in every US metro area.”
Ocasio-Cortez also promised not to take campaign contributions from luxury developers during her campaign. “It’s time we stand up to the luxury developer lobby,” she said in a speech last April. “Every official is too scared to do it – except me.”
Her new apartment complex — which boasts on its website that it vows to take “luxury apartment living” to a higher level — offers over 100,000 square feet of amenities for its residents.
So how does living in a luxury apartment exactly equate to standing up to the luxury apartment lobby? Shouldn’t she have moved into an apartment complex that also offered Affordable Housing?
As expected, there are two sets-of-rules. One for AOC and one for everyone else. 2setsofrules doesn’t hold out hope that the MSM will point out this inconsistency.
