Unless he lived in a project or a trailer park she was rich compared to what I grew up in. I lived in both as a child

Granted, she grew up in Yorktown Heights, not the Bronx ( LINK), and she didn't commute 40miles daily to school as she apparently claimed in her campaign.
But she was far from affluent.

Affluent as hell compared to the Bronx neighborhood she claimed to grow up in.

Bottom line, she lied about her upbringing.

She did so to get credibility.

House isn't very big but it's on decent sized lot. I'm betting even that 1200 sq ft house isn't cheap.

Ever been to the Bronx? That house looks like millionaires' row compared to the Bronx.

are you stupid or just ignorant?

Yes, your 1200 sq ft house in baton rouge means you are a poor.

But a 1200 sq ft house in NYC means just the opposite.

That house is probably worth $500,000. And you are comparing that to renting a 700-800 sq ft apartment in the bronx?

Lock step --- as always. You resident lefties will attempt to defend anything -- frickING ANYTHING.

Liberalism is a straight up fricking cult.

I'll excuse your ignorance on real estate pricing.

Zillow means dick.

Right. And $457,000 is the average in her Yorktown Heights neighborhood.

Breaking news: politicians lie and/or tell half-truths to get elected

Stay tuned.

Modest? Her house costs more than most that post on here. NYC suburbs are expensive as hell. She's upper class. The only thing to make her "modest" is the fact that she didn't work hard in college and had to take shitty jobs after because of poor choices. She now blames anyone who worked hard and made good choices for her failure to achieve the American dream (other than becoming a conman and getting elected-I guess that is part of the American dream).

From what I understand, architects are assumed to make a lot more money then they actually do, especially if they don't have the right certs.

Maybe so. But still no way to equate working class parents in the Bronx projects with an architect daddy in Westchester.

SHE totally lied about her background to get elected to the U.S. Congress.

The Left will re-write the personal history of their heroes in order to serve the political ends of the Left.

Kim Il Sung's official North Korean personal history is completely different from reality.

Why would I expect the Leftists here to tell the truth about AOC's personal background?
