If you think being a social Democrat means walking around in a sackcloth with bugs in your hair and being unwilling to wear clothes Vanity Fair tells you to put on when it wants to take a photo of you, maybe the problem isn't @AOC but that you don't know what social democracy is?
Over and over again, @AOC has likened her notion of democratic socialism to the social democracy that dominates the Scandinavian countries Trump repeatedly lauds.

Do people really believe that working professionals in Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Denmark don't have nice clothes?
What I see today are some extraordinarily rich Republicans falsely—yet condescendingly!—telling working-class Republicans that working professionals in social Democratic countries live on peanuts and don't have nice things. That's much worse than what they falsely accuse @AOC of.
And let us remember that all the extraordinarily rich Republicans taking @AOC to task based on lies about social democracy are people who god-worship a man who says he's a "man of the people" as he craps in a literal gold toilet and steals millions from working-class contractors.
