And the irony is that she didn't buy the china with taxpayer money.

The china and another $800,000 came came from private donations to a fund set up to not only provide new china for the White House but to refurbish parts of the White House itself. But the leftist press lambasted her neverthe less.

Ronald and Nancy Reagan gave to America - the Obama grifters take everything they can get their Affrimative Action hands on.

Yup. That ran $800K. Maybe $2.5 mil after inflation in today's dollars.

The difference? It holds its value and STAYS WITH THE HOUSE!

I remember. It was appalling how she was picked on. That china was not even paid for by the taxpayers, and was donated by a china manufacturer to the WH. The worst she ever did was wear dresses “loaned” to her by designers. The ranch in California was very modest, and Reagan was discreet in his speechmaking. There was no first lady treated more unfairly than Nancy...

Yep. And the catty media constantly sneered at her for her impeccable style and fashion sense.

Yet the grifter FLOTUS looks like something the cat woundn’t even drag in, and she’s hailed as Jackie O.
