But she won’t live in a place with “affordable housing units.” Code for poor people. She will campaign on their backs, and claim she’s for them, but once she has the ability, she won’t live near them.

It’s hypocritical to do this.

How do you know she "won’t live in a place" with affordable housing? She would not be eligible for affordable housing herself and there might not be a building that meets her needs that has non-affordable housing units available. Do you have any evidence that she had an opportunity to live in a building with affordable housing and declined?

Don’t know any of that but neither do you. She’s the force and face of socialism and helping the poor and downtrodden, and you’d think she’d maintain her values by living the way she wants all Americans to live.

It’s actually quite stunningly she abandoned her mantra the first time she’s in DC. I expected her to be an elected official that sleeps in their office to save money like many of them do.

Too bad for you. Maybe focus on living your own life instead of hating on others.

I thought progressives were all about everyone having the same simple life and taking money from the wealthy and redistribution to the poor?

Dcum rails against any rich republican constantly...but suddenly it’s time to live your best life when AOC is shopping at Whole Foods.

See? That’s American Socialism. All fluff. No substance.

Republicans: She's a socialist, so she has to shop at dodgy grocery stores.

No, she’s left those behind. The people she cleaned to represent cannot shop at Whole Foods. They are stuck at dodgy stores.

And she did push Amazon out of NYC, but supports it by shopping there for her groceries.

That doesn’t seem at all hypocritical?

Have you seen her shopping at WF? What do you base your claim on?

Uhh, have you ever walked around the Navy Yards section of DC?

It's always a good feeling being poor, yet knowing something like this is around the block.

That's not a statement, it's just sad. And illegal. She certainly shouldn't do that.

Seriously. JFC. You're up in arms because she moved to an apartment in freaking Navy Yard?

I hear Obama's in a tan suit again. Better call the police.

Can't you read?

from the article posted:

She was spotted shopping in the Whole Foods in her new D.C. neighborhood on Thursday night, Politico's Playbook reported.

Republicans: She's a socialist, so she has to shop at dodgy grocery stores.

She has to shop at the same type of shops most of her constituents in Bronx do. She claimed to be just like them, Alex from the Bronx.

I’m sure the people who lost thousands of well-paying jobs in New York because of the Amazon deal falling through would love to live in a nice apartment and eat organic. She is learning typical democrat ropes - do as I say, not as I do.

Exactly. That’s my thought. The people in NYC who need jobs could have worked at Amazon. But that’s not ok with AOC, get outta here Amazon.

But she will shop at Whole Foods because it’s nearby? Really? So 25,000 were denied jobs at Amazon b/c she doesn’t like them- but she won’t avoid them herself because of convenience.

She’s all about sacrifice unless it involves her making a bit of effort to shop somewhere Jeff Bezos doesn’t own.

Y'all are nuts. Pitying those poor souls not employed by Amazon? I think they'll be just fine.

So we know she pushed Amazon out of NYC, but shops at WF.

Why? It’s convenient. You know what else is convenient? 25,000 jobs in Queens.

Wow are you out of touch. I am from that area and have family there. A lot of people were excited for Amazon jobs and were hoping to be employed at Amazon.

Seriously out of touch.

You can't assume anything about her apartment hunting. We can only go by what was in the article:

What it doesn't offer is affordable housing - a platform the self-described socialist campaigned on in her bid to become the youngest female member of Congress.

Young people are idealistic until they hit the jackpot.

+1 million We had a brick thrown through our car window in Navy Yard right across from the Marine Corps commandant's house. She did not move to a posh neighborhood.
