Over $100,000 in 12 hours. Not bad.

On June 2nd, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez reported to Twitter that her dear abuela has fallen ill and continues to live in squalid conditions since her home was ravaged by Hurricane María.

One cannot be certain of the cost to repair grandma’s house, but surely most of the work could be completed for the price of AOC’s shiny Tesla Model 3.

As AOC pointed out to us, we "don’t even have a concept for the role that [incredibly successful children of two American citizens…] play in their families," but clearly caring for their own grandparent isn’t part of it.

Says the congresswoman, “…instead of only caring for [my own grandmother] & letting others suffer, I’m calling attention to the systemic injustices…”

No, seriously. She really said that.

Sadly, virtue-signaling isn’t going to fix abuela’s roof. So we are.

Let’s all kick in to help save AOC’s abuela’s ancestral home. Any amount is appreciated, but the cost of a monthly lease payment on that Tesla is around $499…

All proceeds will be donated to abuela, if she will accept them

She never labeled the conditions squalid. Yet another tiny-dicked loser Con who thinks he's clever, but Walsh is relentlessly and aggressively stupid.

Wait you don’t think this is a kind gesture?

She put pictures of a damaged house with buckets on the floor from a leaky roof. Squalid conditions. Nice of him and donors to help.

 

[OutbackBowl2017]

She did a great job on the Texas issue raising money and providing supplies for them and should of done the same thing for her grandmother and other Puerto Rican’s to offset for the Fed gov failures.

Totally agree.

I know there will be a lot of AOC defending in this thread but....AOC says and does some really dumb shit.

Take care of your Grandma congresswomen.

Where was this generosity before "owning the lib"? What is his plan to fix the actual problem in PR and why was it not actionable before AOC brought it up multiple times before? Typical repub. Go ahead and celebrate "owning" AOC but god forbid repubs show some empathy, caring or humanity for the real people in need of help. Congrats!!!

AOC’s desire to spend on luxuries for herself and lament that others won’t support her grandma is the ‘actual problem’.

Puerto Rican’s know this

So we should ignore it?

Maybe that's exactly what she did. She is a Democrat after all. It's her natural inclination to get Republicans to pay for things she should be paying for herself.
But I don't think she's that clever. This ended up working out for her, but I don't think that was her initial plan.

Not as "kind" as this:

Both nailed it.

 

[binsfeldcyhawk2]

Absolutely not and I agree with you there.

I guess I can’t fathom AOC’s thought process on this....help your grandma.

 

[Hawkeye_311]

The thing is AOC never once thought about opening up her own wallet to help her family out. Not surprising since her and her fellow Democrats spend all day trying to take money out of everyone else's wallet.

 

[Hawkeye_311]

The same AOC who is going from bartending to multi millionaire in a few short years while complaining about capitalism and evil systems of the United States.

Yep, what’s troubling is she thought she was making a fantastic point with that tweet....totally blind to how incredibly ridiculous it was...

She’s talking about poor government policy. Exactly what the right whines about too.

The point was that there needs to be a better government response to ALL people in Puerto Rico who don’t have the means because of a lack of US support. Not surprising that it went over a lot of Con heads. Not too difficult.

What luxuries? And I don't think a 35k car counts as a luxury

There was a lot of corruption and mismanagement in the Puerto Rican government and bureaucracy...hell, they had tons of protests in Puerto Rico about it. Could the feds have done more? Yes.

AOC tweeting about the plight of HER grandmother while she’s making 175k a year, has a couple apartments and drives a Tesla strikes me as insanely out of touch and stupid.

Help your grandmother AOC....perhaps drive a used Volvo and fix grandma’s roof.

Instead...she blames Trump for the hole in Grandma’s roof.

She’s sharing the issue many Puerto Ricans face that wouldn’t have happened in a state, especially one that that Trump won. Sorry it’s relevant, even if you wish it weren’t.

The lengths people go to explain away her idiotic comments and statements is mind blowing to me.

Maybe she could have fixed grandma’s roof....months ago....and made the same point?

Update:

Apparently Abuela turned down the 100k

Socialism is poor government policy but Democrats and AOC supports that.

Duh, it does when the owner is a brown woman. Don't you watch Fox?

It’s a luxury when your grandmother has a hole in her roof for a couple years.

Buy a used Volvo...fix grandmas roof. Seems like a reasonable trade off to me

 

[seminole97]

What luxuries? And I don't think a 35k car counts as a luxury

When the roof is leaking, what do you prioritize?
I‘ve never spent 35k on a car, but I did put a roof on my house for 15k a few months ago (included subs cutting trees and reinstalling gutter).

How do we know she isn’t personally helping her grandmother? If she is, it still doesn’t do much for the remainder in Puerto Rico.

If she isn’t helping her grandmother, then it’s a stupid, tone deaf tweet.

The thing speaks for itself.

The hurricane was forever ago and her grandmother’s roof still leaks. By definition she hasnt helped her grandmother.

The hurricane was almost FOUR years ago.
If she is helping her grandma she’s taking her sweet time.

She said in one of the following tweets that her grandmother had “a place to go and be cared for” and in the photos it doesn’t appear anyone is living in the home.

So, again, how do you know she isn’t helping her grandmother? Does paying to fix her grandmother’s roof make much of a difference if the remaining neighborhood remains in disrepair?

Are there other ways to help her besides fixing her home, potentially?

Sure, tax some other bastard to pay for it. Hence the gripe tweet.

We know she isn’t personally helping grandma because she posted a picture of a hole in the roof a couple years after the friggin hurricane.

If grandma was a priority I’d think the hole would have been fixed a while back.

Stupid, idiotic and stupid tweet by the AOC
