Democrat Caught LYING That His Mom Had to 'Fight to Pay Rent and Put Food on the Table

New Mexico Democrat Gabe Vasquez would like you to believe he learned grit and determination the old-fashioned way: staring at an eviction notice while Mom scraped together dinner. 

In his latest ad he practically genuflects at the altar of the working class, claiming he watched his mother “fight to pay rent and put food on the table.” 

Turns out Mom wasn’t punching a time clock in some rundown restaurant where she washed dishes. No no, she held corporate finance jobs at GE, served as a finance manager and comptroller in Mexico, then landed as a senior finance analyst in Indiana, while the family scrapbook apparently features European vacations, luxury shopping, and a Corvette photobomb. 

(More examples of Democrat barefoot contessas and contessos can be found in the accompanying Fox News report.)
