Ocasio-Cortez freaks out when photographed with chief of staff eating forbidden hamburger
[AmericanThinker] It's not exactly hamburgergate, but Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is not coping very well with the pressures of being a media sensation. As a young woman who likes sharing her wisdom with hordes of admiring skulls full of mush, she might have realized that she would be held to account whenever she fails to live up to her proscriptions for the lesser mortals to live by.
Telling the masses they "shouldn't be eating a hamburger for breakfast, lunch, and dinner" was a serious mistake for multiple reasons, not least of which is that denying favorite foods to people is not a recipe for popularity. But presuming to grab the moral high ground also imposes a standard that just might be hard to meet 100% of the time. It was an open invitation to mockery the first time she was seen in proximity to the delicious ground meat sandwich.
Tuesday night, she was dining out with her chief of staff, Saikat Chakrabarti, who, in many ways, is the brains behind her rise from cocktail waitress to congressman, and he was eating a nice thick burger, heedless of the cow farts that lay behind its availability. She was not amused, and when the forbidden fartogenic food was featured in mocking tweets, she took to Twitter to claim victimization by a stalker.
And the scary thing about AOC, and her entire generation, is that they see this as a valid argument
