Now this, folks … this is a ratio!
The Washington Examiner’s Eddie Scarry thought he saw a great opportunity to dunk on Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Not for her economic incompetence, but for her clothes:
Hill staffer sent me this pic of Ocasio-Cortez they took just now. I’ll tell you something: that jacket and coat don’t look like a girl who struggles. pic.twitter.com/oaLpy5aXlt

It hasn’t been going over well. And not just with the Left. It’s a bipartisan ratio party, and everyone’s invited!
This is a bad tweet and you should feel bad for tweeting it

1. "girl"
2. She's wearing… a basic blazer. And jacket. To work.
3. gross.— Emma Gray (@emmaladyrose) November 15, 2018
You must’ve never heard of TJ MAXX, Marshall’s, Nordstrom RacK, Saks off fifth etc., etc.,etc., I once bought a 200$ designer jacket for 8$ at one of these stores. Guess you just don’t know how or where to shop.

Is this what passes for reporting now?
In a recent interview she actually said she got a Rent the Runway subscription as a gift. (It retails for $139 a month.)
I look forward to your important journalistic updates on what the incoming male members are sporting. ? https://t.co/7tOpDugYHc

Seriously? Not an @Ocasio2018 fan, but this is a cheapshot.
1) It's hard to tell the quality of a garment from a photo.
2) Some people are *really* good at shopping. I once bought a $1,500 Roland Mouret blazer for $14 at a consignment store.
3) Men are now judging fashion? https://t.co/mWAz7XPn2V— Adrienne (@AdrienneRoyer) November 15, 2018
This is glorious.

Damn.
Looks like we have a new unit of time measurement… one "scarry"

Ha!
Has there ever been a epic, all-time ratioed tweet that got retweeted, resulting in another epic ratio?
This is artwork. Takes incredible talent to pull this off. https://t.co/hDTHRiYHQu

Pro-tip: If you’re gonna pick on Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, stick to policy stuff. Focusing on her fashion isn’t a great look.
SOLID CRITICISM of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: "she doesn't understand basic economics and her policy ideas, such as they are, are fantasy dreams."
NOT-SOLID CRITICISM of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: "lol that bitch doesn't deserve a coat." https://t.co/Vz4xalBiFz

"If Alexandria Ocasio Cortez is really a Democratic Socialist, then why isn't she walking around the halls of Capitol Hill dressed like a ragamuffin extra from the cast of OLIVER?" — said nobody smart, ever.
— Jeff B. (@EsotericCD) November 15, 2018
This whole thing where people are trying to nail Ocasio-Cortez for being secretly rich is really embarrassing. Stick to her awful politics, please. https://t.co/xTe0AO8pFT

Wait until she responds. You know she’ll roast his ass something good too

The moment you’ve been waiting for has finally arrived:
If I walked into Congress wearing a sack, they would laugh & take a picture of my backside.
If I walk in with my best sale-rack clothes, they laugh & take a picture of my backside.
Dark hates light – that’s why you tune it out.

Credit where it’s due: She handled it well.
