[quote=Anonymous]I love how people keep mentioning $$$$ Trump has spent --- HELLOOOO ---- He's RICH-- very very very. He pays for ALL trips to Mar-a-Lago on his own dime except for maybe some of the secret service people he has to take with him (which is required by every POTUS). He plays golf for FREE, because he OWNS the courses. Obummer made the US citizens pay for his every weekend golf game as well as all of the FREQUENT Obummer family's luxury trips. Did Obummer donate HIS yearly salary instead of accepting it every year??? Hummm - No.

[quote][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]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.

These include: two private massage rooms with state-of-the-art hydrotherapy beds; men’s and women’s saunas; a full-scale demonstration kitchen with wood-fired pizza oven; a 25-meter indoor lap pool; a rooftop infinity pool with panoramic views of the Capitol; a Peloton cycling studio with over a dozen bikes; and a fireside lounge featuring a Steinway & Sons player piano.

Her apartment building is not posh? Really? [/quote]

As someone noted upthread, new buildings have all kinds of rent incentives.  I've moved into new buildings, not for the amenities but because of the cheap(er) rent.[/quote]

So you have rented apartments in DC with the amenities available at AOC’s building?

Specifically yes or no? Her building has details listed of said amenities and they seem more posh than most. [/quote]

Yes, but Navy Yard is not a particularly posh place, so even if the building is new, it's not like she's living right on the Hiil or in Georgetown so her rent will be lower.  And yes, newer buildings with more vacancies often have very good rent incentives (we got 3 months rent free in an expensive building so our annual rent was affordable even though our "sticker price" rent was high.[/quote]

Ok understood but did your building have her amenities? Her specific building?

“These include: two private massage rooms with state-of-the-art hydrotherapy beds; men’s and women’s saunas; a full-scale demonstration kitchen with wood-fired pizza oven; a 25-meter indoor lap pool; a rooftop infinity pool with panoramic views of the Capitol; a Peloton cycling studio with over a dozen bikes; and a fireside lounge featuring a Steinway & Sons player piano.

Also included is a PGA-grade golf simulation lounge with a wrap-around screen and viewing bar that allows residents to play virtually at dozens of the world’s most exclusive golf courses with the touch of a button. Last week, Democrats mocked President Trump for installing a new golf simulator at the White House — updating with his own money one originally installed by former President Barack Obama.”

Your building had these amenities? Many posters here are claiming they lived like AOC but won’t answer this specific question, so I suspect the answer is no.

PP here.  No.  Does that mean something?

I wouldn't pick Navy Yard, but I don't work at the Congress building.  Would you?[/quote]

So you admit her building is better than most in Navy Yard? Or are we stil pretending that’s not true.

And there are less posh buildings in Navy Yard that are close to her work but don’t have a Peloton studio on premises?[/quote][/quote]
