    That is far too sophisticated a take for an Internet forum.

    And please tell me how owing a Tesla is hypocritical for her? (noting that being a hypocrite is never a problem on the right. See McConnel, Mitch.)

    Two very different philosophies of life between these two politicians though.

    Everyone's a Socialist until it's time to do Socialist things.

    Isn't the left supposed to be different from the right?

    I just think it's hard to be "of the people" if you're driving a car that's worth more than what 90% of people make in a year.

    Average US car price is $40k.

    That looks like the base cheap Tesla. $36k.

    US House Reps make $174k/year.

    I don't get it. So, she is for green values and for policies that help people more than corporations. Does that mean she's taken a vow of poverty? No. Or that she can't like, want, or have nice things? No. Or that she can't work hard and buy what she likes? No.

    And for the record, I like her even more if she tries to scam parking at a While Foods!

    What socialism has she advocated for? Let alone any change which would impact owning a Tesla or apartment?

    Surprised she hasn't been impeached and removed from the Presidency.

    Socialism is socialism? They can put a Democratic spin on it all they want but at the end of the day it's government power over the people that has historically (and modernly) lead to massive corruption, famine and death.
