Supporters of President Trump are pumping thousands of dollars into the campaign coffers of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Democratic primary challenger Michelle Caruso-Cabrera.
Asked about the donations from Trump backers, Caruso-Cabrera spokesman Hank Sheinkopf said, “AOC’s divisive behavior has created the national coalition supporting MCC. AOC continues to work against our presumptive Presidential nominee Joe Biden. AOC prefers to be with Donald Trump 13.7 percent of the time. Her vote on SALT was in lock step with the President, which hurts NY.”
He was referring to AOC’s vote against a House bill to repeal the law that limits state and local tax deductions on federal income tax returns, which mainly benefits wealthier, home-owning taxpayers, and her voting record.
