I’m sure she can get a temp job as a bartender in a town like DC.

This uninformed sub-intellect loser will end up being quite wealthy after her gig is over. What a fraud. Mainly, her career will be that of a back-bencher cashing her pay checks, making unintelligent loud noises and wandering around insulting working stiffs. The ny voters who elected her must be brain dead or worse.

Agree. she could walk the streets in DC in the meantime. I’m sure she could make enough for a motel room.

She’s from Westchester County (not The Bronx), so she knows all about the high cost of living. And she’ll probably have to hold down 2 jobs (which is what is driving the unemployment rate so darn low).
To: 2ndDivisionVet
So she realized she flew to the state Washington by mistake?

The thing is her salary might not be enough for an apartment in D.C., it’s expensive. I read in the past of several people in Congress who lived in their offices. The rude awakening is coming for her.
To: riri
Isn’t she wearing, like, $5000 suits? That's what I was thinking. If she can afford to wear $5-$10k clothes she afford to rent an apartment.
Heck; some congressmen sleep in a closet in their office or a couch. Is she too good to do that for a minute or two.

Cattle futures. That’s where the real money is at. Be a multi-millionaire in no time.

She explained that the transition period will be very unusual, because I cant really take a salary. I have three months without a salary before Im a member of Congress. So, how do I get an apartment? Those little things are very real.
They don’t get paid for a full month after they take office?
I guess that’s to be sure if they get a vehicle they return it after they leave office.
To: Old Yeller
Well, she’s no dumber than Maxine Waters. Exactly my point.
She does not have to be very smart to become a multimillionaire and live a life of luxury.
All she has to do is listen to advice and follow it.
Doing that, she can become extremely wealthy, while actually working very, very little.
Maxine Waters can be her model.

It would do her good to sleep out in the park with the homeless for two months, in the winter.
