Typical nonsense right-wing smearing of the people who oppose their actual corruption. Republicans redistribute trillions to the most wealthy - but oh my gosh Bernie's wife inherited a house, AOC stay at a nice hotel, so hate them and keep voting Republican and redistributing those trillions.

Idiocy.

I wonder if the Washington Examiner was critical of Trump’s having Pence stay in
a Trump hotel on the opposite side of Ireland from the site of the meeting he was to attend there, or foreign visitors at Trump hotels in DC.

As to AOC, I don’t support her because of where she sleeps, but the policies she pushes when awake.

My problem with AOC is that she is a billionaire and plays the "common woman" card like its cash.

She is as much unqualified for office as is Trump, but for different reasons. Trump's a crook, but she's an impostor, a poser, a user of people. Kind of everything that's wrong with American politics.

The guy who SHOULD be more popular is Tim Waltz.

Where do you get that she's a billionaire? That isn't even possible unless she married rich.

AOC is NOT A BILLIONAIRE.

NOT EVEN CLOSE!

she is not even a millionsire. Not even a 1/4 millionaire.

Who told you she was a billionaire and why in the world did you fall for it??????..

seriously!!!!!

why did you fall for that complete and obvious nonsense?

you should punch whoever told you that in the face!

Someone needs to adjust their definition of "swanky".

For example The Renegade in Boise is about $172/night, about the same as the Hilton.

AOC is worth less than $100k.

www.reuters.com

Fact Check: No evidence Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has a net worth of $29 million

There is no evidence that Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has a net worth of $29 million, despite online claims that that figure was released by Forbes magazine. Forbes has denied releasing the $29 million figure and no other reliable source for the claim has been cited.

The other hotel described as "opulent" was the Vdara in Las Vegas. It's also reasonable.

It's not like these people were staying at the Ritz-Carlton or Four Seasons, which would certainly be swanky and opulent.

I admit I'm not fancy like AOC.

Thats not fancy. You've not seen fancy if you think a $172 - $255 hotel room is fancy.

Fancy and opulent goes for $1,000 and up in the US and Canada.

When I traveled for business in the US we stayed at Hiltons. They are about $150 - $200 and are definitely not opulent.

Why to you buy this nonsense without skepticism? A quick look at Priceline shows me these hotels are generally about $150 per night. That is a nice businessman's hotel.... Oligarchs to not stay in $150 per night hotels.

You are outraged by this while the current president is literally shaking down colleges, law firms, other countries for personal favors. Get a clue.

Nothing out of ordinary about that. Its a nice room, but a room that will generally run you under $200 per night.

You'll have to ignore the third reich wing. They have no issue with throwing children and families off of food stamps or dumpytits spending $200 million on a ballroom, but they have a problem with AOC staying in a reasonably priced hotel.
