Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez posted a photo of her grandmother’s Puerto Rico home in a state of disrepair in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria to demonstrate how the U.S. had blocked relief to the territory, but some questioned why she hadn’t offered to help repair the home herself.
“Just over a week ago, my abuela fell ill. I went to Puerto Rico to see her- my 1st time in a year+ bc of COVID. This is her home. Hurricane María relief hasn’t arrived. Trump blocked relief $ for PR,” the New York Democrat wrote on Twitter. “People are being forced to flee ancestral homes, & developers are taking them.”
Conservative commentator Matt Walsh shot back: “Shameful that you live in luxury while allowing your own grandmother to suffer in these squalid conditions.”
Hi @AOC — Maybe you can sell your Tesla and help out grandma with the $500 it would take to fix that ceiling?

Hahaha she’s such a dumb bitch
So, last year’s hurricane damage still not fixed even though granddaughter earns close to $200k, plus all the other campaign cash she gathers. Someone should add the AOC border pic with $900 watch to the pic of grannie’s room. That’s AOC level sincerity.
AOC should ask Hilliary for some of the millions she collected for disaster relief for Puerto Rico. After all Hilliary only forwarded 20% of what she collected to this territory and pocketed the rest.
