Hillary Clinton gave inequality speech in $12K Armani jacket



Hillary Clinton gave a speech on economic inequality in April while wearing pricey duds that caught the attention of eagle-eyed fashionistas — particularly a Giorgio Armani jacket valued at $12,495.

The former secretary of state earned enough delegates Monday to become the presumptive Democratic nominee, but it was her expensive attire that landed her in Facebook’s top-trending news stories Tuesday, and her seemingly mixed message on economic equality wasn’t lost on readers.

“I’ve heard a lot of Hillary supporters saying that we should trust her in terms of addressing income inequality and regulating Wall Street,” one Facebook user, Michael Sammartino, wrote Tuesday. “I’ve tried really, really hard to get to that point but, words only go so far. Taking donations from corporations and members of the 1 percent, refusing to release transcripts from her paid Wall Street speeches, and wearing a jacket that’s valued at more than double my entire net worth while giving a speech on income inequality goes to show where her priorities really are.”
