Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Names French Bulldog Deco After Art Movement
New York Post ^ | January 13, 2020 | Kate Sheehy

US Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has revealed the name of her new pooch — “Deco.”

The renegade Bronx Democrat — who came under fire for allegedly buying a purebred male French bulldog puppy instead of rescuing a dog from a shelter — said in an Instagram posting Sunday that the name is short for the early 1900s Art Deco movement.

AOC, who had asked online followers for name suggestions last week, wrote that she and boyfriend Riley Roberts ultimately chose the moniker.

I guess it's better than Bauhaus or Jugendstil.

I'd still rather have the dog as my representative. <

She’s stuck in the 1930s, like her economic policies.

The young woman wants a purebred French bulldog and can afford one, it’s not anybody’s business than hers. But greyhounds are the real ‘Deco’ dogs. You’ll see their statuettes sitting around in lots of movies from the time.

The type of dog was the one All-Star baseball pitcher David Price had. The dog was much loved and got the keys to the city, sat in the mayor’s chair at a ceremony, had his own bobblehead day and was one of the most popular figures in baseball a while ago. Sadly, Astro, the French Bulldog, passed away in July, 2019.

I seriously doubt that AOC even knows of or understands the Term Art-Deco. LOL

The dog is going to be crate trained. In other words, she and whoever she lives with will be locking the puppy in a crate all day long until they return home from work at night........
