Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) trolled Donald Trump on Monday after the bombshell New York Times report revealed that the president wrote off $70,000 in hair-styling expenses on his taxes while his own supporters attacked her for spending $250 on a hair-do
“Where’s the criticism of their idol spending $70k on hairstyling?” the New York Democrat tweeted. “Oh, it’s nowhere because they’re spineless, misogynistic hypocrites? Got it.”
AOC went on to call Trump out for paying no more than $750 a year in taxes, despite claiming to make millions.
The freshman congresswoman noted that she was a bartender working mostly for tips when she paid more in taxes than Trump did for years — as did untold millions of undocumented immigrants that Trump wants to deport.
“He contributed less to funding our communities than waitresses & undocumented immigrants,” she wrote.

Last year Republicans blasted a firehose of hatred + vitriol my way because I treated myself to a $250 cut & lowlights on my birthday.

In 2016 & ‘17, I paid thousands of dollars a year in taxes *as a bartender.*
Trump paid $750.
He contributed less to funding our communities than waitresses & undocumented immigrants.
Donald Trump has never cared for our country more than he cares for himself. A walking scam. https://t.co/VZChbp8htu
