Democrat darling Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is hawking $27 T-shirts like a good little capitalist in an effort to turn America into a Socialist hellhole.<\/p>\n

AOC is selling a plethora of socialist slogans on everything from hats to T-shirts, and more, to appeal to her base as a champion for the working class.<\/p>\n

\u201cTax The Rich\u201d, \u201cAbolish ICE,\u201d and \u201cBrawler for the Working Class\u201d don the leftist merch that runs at $27 a pop and are all \u201cunion-made.\u201d<\/p>\n

As social media influencer Paul A. Szypula pointed out: \u201cShe strongly advocates for taxing the wealthy and greater equity\u2026 while using market-driven sales and entrepreneurship to generate proceeds that support her campaign and political efforts.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNotable contrast in approach.\u201d<\/p>\n

AOC is selling a $27 \u201cTax the Rich\u201d T-shirt along with other union-made items in her campaign store \u2014 including a \u201cBrawler for the Working Class\u201d tank top and an \u201cAbolish ICE\u201d dad hat for $28.<\/p>\n

AOC is also seeking $500 donations through her self-proclaimed \u2018grassroots\u2019 campaign.<\/p>\n

AOC has capitalized on class warfare for years and doesn\u2019t appear to be slowing down anytime soon. In May, she went so far as to say billionaires can\u2019t honestly earn their wealth.<\/p>\n

\n

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: You can\u2019t earn a billion dollars.<\/p>\n

Ilana Glazer: That\u2019s right.<\/p>\n

AOC: You just can\u2019t earn that.<\/p>\n

Glazer: That\u2019s exactly correct.<\/p>\n

AOC: You can get market power. You can break rules. You can do all sorts of things. You can abuse labor laws.<\/p>\n

Glazer: Yup.\u2026 pic.twitter.com\/VJIAm9ptqL<\/a><\/p>\n

The NY Rep\u2019s ignorant takes have earned a mocking rebuke generated through AI by the Babylon Bee:<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, AOC voters admitted that they can\u2019t think of anything she\u2019s done to help their district, but would they vote for her for president? Probably.<\/p>\n

\n

AOC voters LITERALLY can\u2019t even think of 1 thing she actually does that they like!<\/p>\n
