Hillary Wears $12,000 Suit During Income Inequality Speech

In progressive circles, it's always been fashionable to lash out at the rich. Progressives try to paint themselves as men and women of the people. The thing is, most of the time, they're not. Especially when they can drop more on an article of clothing than most can afford to spend on a car.

Hillary Clinton wore a jacket that costs more than $12,000 when she discussed income inequality and other economic issues following her victory in the New York Primary earlier this year.

According to the New York Post, Clinton sported the $12,495 Giorgio Armani jacket when delivering remarks in New York City in April after defeating competitor Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) in her home-state primary.

The price of the jacket constitutes roughly 40 percent of what the average American worker makes in a year. According to the most recent data provided by the U.S. Census Bureau, the median income for U.S. workers in 2014 was $30,815.

I'm not trying to start an argument or defend Hillary, but you are aware that figureheads and celebrities often receive free clothing when they are doing public appearances, right? It's so that the companies who make the clothing get exposure and people talk about them.

I'm not saying I know for sure that's whats happening here, but I'd wager it.

I would agree that given the context of the speech, it was probably in poor taste, but who am I to make that call?

If she was given the clothing while she was a candidate she could be in violation of the "The Federal Election Campaign Act" which not only limits the money that can be given to a candidate it also restricts goods or services.
Also......"Contributions and donations may not be solicited, accepted, or received from, or made directly or indirectly by, foreign nationals who do not have permanent residence in the United States"....and Giorgio Armani is headquartered in Italy.

If she received it as a gift while she was SOS that would also be a violation....federal employees are prohibited from accepting money, goods or services.

This doesn't look good no matter how or when she got the clothing in question.

how many people get a million dollar a year job right out of college?

Chelsea did...

$12,000. for a suit,
and Horseface Hilary still can't get her teef fixed.

Thanks, ACA.
Now Hilary can serve as Trump's bottle opener.

That saying about putting lipstick on a pig comes to mind.....

She should really practice what she preaches.... sell the ensemble and spread the proceeds among the people....her fair share.

Hitlery: "But when you said tax the rich I didn't think you meant us! Bill and I are broke! How will we pay for our 4 mansions, the chauffeur, Bill's trips to see Epstein on Orgy Island, and all the bribes and lawsuits with only $300 million?!"

Nurse Ratched is looking on from the Sidelines!

That saying in Hillary's case, should be putting lipstick on a pigs azz.

Oh my Lawd that gif still cracks me up
