Some democrats ooze hypocrisy and are too stupid to even know it.
And $58 for a plain 'ol sweatshirt with minimal print on it?

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Offers $58 ‘Tax the Rich’ Sweatshirt
Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez announced that preorders were available on her website for a $58 “Tax the Rich” sweatshirt.
Ocasio-Cortez said in a Wednesday tweet that preorders were open on her site for the “Tax the Rich” crewneck sweatshirt — listed at $58 — along with several other items in support of key policies and platforms such as fighting racism, canceling student debt and the Green New Deal.

The site included listings for a t-shirt that read “student debt,” one touting the Green New Deal and another that read, “Drink water & don’t be racist.”Thanks!
Preorders are open now 🙂 https://t.co/J973Ot2VAt pic.twitter.com/yY7SpOG4VD

Ocasio-Cortez also stated that all of her merchandise was made in the United States by union workers.
Critics were quick to jump on the New York Congresswoman, who is a self-described Democratic Socialist, suggesting that maybe she was benefitting from capitalism after all.As always, made in the US with dignified, union jobs paying living wages ✨

$58.00 for an @AOC sweatshirt.
Seems like capitalism. pic.twitter.com/zno7ooOY1S
— Dean Browning (@DeanBrowningPA) December 3, 2020Still laughing about AOC selling ridiculously expensive swag that says “Tax the rich.” That pretty much sums it all up right there.
— Lisa Boothe (@LisaMarieBoothe) December 3, 2020Glad to see AOC has made a ‘Tax the Rich’ shirt so that I can finally wash the ‘I Am Kind and Grateful’ $190 Annie Bing shirt that I have been wearing daily
— Riva (@rivatez) December 3, 2020The @AOC campaign website will sell you a “Tax the Rich” sweatshirt, assuming you can afford to spend $58 for it. pic.twitter.com/8FjlYFhUZi
— Jeff Jacoby (@Jeff_Jacoby) December 3, 2020Ilhan’s like “cancel rent and mortgages,” while her congressional bestie AOC is charging $58 for “tax the rich” sweaters on her website. I’m calling the police.

— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) December 3, 2020Despite the criticisms, the prices on Ocasio-Cortez’s website are not substantially higher than those in President Donald Trump’s campaign store. A wide variety of Trump t-shirts sell for $20-30, and a “Keep America Great” hoodie retails for $55.Let me offer this alternative pic.twitter.com/DGFY5989eK
