Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) is on board with Sen. Bernie Sanders’ (I-VT) proposal to erase all student loan debt, because she has not paid off her student loans either, she said Monday.
While making remarks in support of Sanders’ sweeping bill to cancel $1.6 trillion in student loan debt, Ocasio-Cortez discussed her “personal stake” in the fight. She wants to make the bill a reality, in part, because she has outstanding student loans.
“I will be completely honest. I will disclose my personal stake in this fight because I have student loans too,” she said Monday. “And I think it’s so funny. A year ago, I was waiting tables in a restaurant.”
“It was literally easier for me to become the youngest woman in American history elected to Congress than it is to pay off my student loan debt,” she continued.
“So that should tell you everything about the state of our economy and the state of quality of life for working people,” she added.
She implied that her elevated position – becoming a congresswoman – put her in a better position to be able to access affordable health care and pay off her student loan debt, although it has still not been eradicated.
“I had to do something that was nearly impossible,” she said, adding that the bar is set too high and arguing that everyone should have easy access to education, health care, and other things that should be considered “human rights.”

So Americans should pay for illegals to have health care, Americans who never owned slaves should pay slavery reparations to people who were never slaves, Americans should pay for illegals to have free college, free housing, Social Security, Welfare and Food Stamps, and now Americans should be strapped with pay off college loans that they never applied for. And this includes Americans who had college loans and paid their loans off. Now the Democratic Socialists want to make them pay off someone else's college loans.
I have news for Ocasio Cortez. Pay your own bills. You now make $174,000 a year. You can pay off your own college loans. Free college is not a human right and it isn't free. You want to stiff the tax payer with your debt and that is called "stealing." We're not going to pay your bills. You need to back to bartending. You are a national disgrace as a member of Congress.

Trump repeats the same lie a large number of times. That is if he remembers what he said last time. Then he makes up a new answer.

This isn't about Trump. We have AOC in her own words saying that she wants us to pay off her student loans. Why do you address what SHE said??
This video claims she repeatedly tells lies. No she doesn't but Trump does.

She's not just a liar. She is a socialists who wants us to pay off hers and everyone else's student loans. Not gonna happen.
As "lie" was singular in your post, exactly which one are you referring to?
Talk about lying - One year ago, this is what Sen Gillibrand told New Yorkers during her campaign for US Senate.
If this is not a lie - I have no ideal what a lie is.

Actually there are hundreds. This sentence says how he treats many of them especially the big ones.
