Nice apartment. Chelsea is smart; fortunate to be part of the lucky sperm/ova club. Other peoples' kids: not so much.

(47,803 posts)When you have that much money, spending $1,000 for a stroller feels the same as you or me buying a roll of scotch tape.
I don't struggle with my conscience over that. Why should the uber wealthy?

My grandmother still lives with my family. She never fully recovered and can now barely walk or move. Can you relate to that, Hillary?
See, Hillary, you are not just like my abuela. In fact, you are nothing like her. The U.S. immigration regime did not keep you from seeing your third granddaughter learn to walk. It has not kept you immobile for nine years. It has not separated you from the culture or the language you know, from the place you call home.
You cannot intersperse a few words in Spanish and a couple references to what your staff assumes to be a Latinx culture, and then call yourself our abuela. My abuela does not have your level of fame or your educational status; she does not possess your international influence or your impressive collection of pantsuits.
Pero mi abuela holds a thousand stories in her eyes alone. Her hands speak of struggle and her back holds the weight of generations of Latinx women who have survived colonization, dictatorships, imperialism and forced migration. She is incomparable.
