Yeah, Warren's stunt was nice, too.

Again, though, this seems to be about rhetoric, not ingrained morality. AOC and 
Warren are *arguing* one point, Cambridge Analytica et al are arguing another 
point. Trump's comment during one of the debates with Clinton [ahem] resonated 
with *lots* of people, something about him not paying taxes makes him smart. 
Others are arguing that Trump not paying taxes makes him a cheater. The truth 
is largely irrelevant and what matters is the rhetoric.
