And I'm supposed to be angry that a middle-class girl grew up into a woman who educated herself, got a law degree, married another lawyer, and can afford $800 earrings? That's hardly extravagant in comparison with the Trump lifestyle. But somehow they're "more in touch" having inherited (NOT worked for) great wealth?
Not only that, but consistent wear her very pricey earrings. It’s such a middle class thing - I am soooo broke. Brokety-broke-broke-broke, and I absolutely have a piece of jewelry that is 100s of dollars that I consistently wear.
I consistently see male politicians wearing $8,000 suits, $1,000 shoes and similarly expensive wallets and toting briefcases that match the vibe. But, I see pundits calling out women for being extravagant all the time. It’s so obvious that it sparks an eye roll every time I see it.
Judging her for this is such a perfect example of the misogyny we have against women in politics.
I mean, I know people who live in trailers who will drop $500 on a handbag with no thought. It's their money. I might not make the same choice, but acting like this is "out of touch" when the other candidate spends (and loses) money like it's flowing out of a tap is absurd.
That too! Or even just multiple pets. I currently have 2 dogs and 3 cats. $800 is nothing towards their care. And last I checked, pets aren't a necessity either.

Donald Trump wears $6000 Brioni suits and can't even bother to get them tailored
