Just The News -Progressive Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is facing backlash from online audiences for her wardrobe choice at the famed Met Gala on Monday evening.
Tickets to the high-fashion soiree reportedly cost $30,000-$35,000 a head, and tables sell for $250,000-$300,000. Despite the hefty price tag and A-list guest list, the New York congresswoman opted to wear a white gown with the words “Tax The Rich” splashed across the back in bright red.
The progressive second-term representative has repeatedly called to increase taxes on wealthy Americans.
Fans and detractors of the congresswoman alike derided her wardrobe selection at the New York City event as a political misstep:
“What makes @AOC a bigger fraud: The “tax the rich dress” while she’s hanging out with a bunch of wealthy leftwing elites or the lack of masks after spending the past 18 months as one of the biggest authoritarian mask Karens in the country?” wrote Donald Trump Jr.
Chief Variety TV critic Daniel D’Addario wrote, “I am a big admirer of the work of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, in government and on the public stage, and think tonight looks, in the moment, like a weird misstep. There’s changing the system from within, and there there’s …”
Political commentator Stephen Miller wrote, ‘You know who isn’t at the Met Gala? Joe Manchin.” more
Also, that “sustainably focused, Black woman immigrant designer” is an immigrant from… Canadia. And her boyfriend is worth $100 million (of course he inherited it). Kinda ruins the vibe when you see the bigger picture.
“….work of AOC”
Has he had her mix drinks for him?
She doesn’t care.
She went to the Met Gala.
Just like Obama, all she really wants is to be a celebrity.
Still waiting for her to hit Broadway to play the lead role in “Seabiscuit”
“Tax the Rich” fit right in with those other dresses:
“I’m for the Little Guy”
“Feed the Poor”
“I’d love to change the world”
“Population keeps on breeding”
“Bees make honey, who needs money?”
“World pollution, there’s no solution”
“Institution, electrocution”
“Just black or white, rich or poor”
“Them and us, stop the war”
Everywhere is freaks and hairies
Dykes and fairies, tell me where is sanity?
Snicker, Smirk, Barf, Gag
Just like all the friends of Joe who are exempt from the mask mandates, AOC, of course, did not mean to tax the people at the gala.
As Huey Long famously said, “Don’t tax you. Don’t tax me. Tax the man behind the tree.”

@Beachmom — Here’s a Britishism that you might like (I know I do):
Celebrity → Celeb → Sleb
La Retardada wants to be a sleb.
She may posture as a woke woman of the world but that outfit and pose clearly makes her want to be seen, first and foremost, as a sexy, desirable sexpot beating the other female competitor’s for the purient looks from men!!
“AOC torched online for wearing “Tax The Rich” dress to Met Gala.” What the f*ck does ‘torched online’ even mean? One bunch of bobble-heads insulting another bunch of bobble-heads. Who cares?
Question? Where would one go to get a mask big enough to fit over that mouth?
Just wait until she votes to remove the SALT cap on deductions as a favor to all those rich New Yawkers who bought her a ticket to the faggot ball. She’ll be cutting taxes for the rich in NY and CA by billions.
Does this dress make her look fat?
Can’t say, but she’s thought to use her ass as a billboard.
Doesn’t her dress usually list her prices?
What an egomaniac. What an airhead.
