Rahm Emanuel Rips 2020 Dems Attacking Obama on the Debate Stage: ‘This Is Nuts’

‘You can strike the word little’

EXCERPT:

BAKER: "Well, they're saying ObamaCare wasn't enough and he deported too many immigrants."
EMANUEL: "Let me just say this. A little history. We all have Social Security in the Democratic Party. You know when it was originally proposed and passed African-Americans couldn't get it? From Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the icon of the Democratic Party. Come on! You build on things. Was Medicare in 1965 when Lyndon Johnson passed it the Medicare today? Was Part A, B, C and D all there? You build. This is — either we have a lot of young people that don't know history or I'm going to talk to institutions of higher education to start teaching people real history. Every element of progressivity from literally Wilson and Teddy Roosevelt and Franklin Roosevelt to the Great Society and forward builds on the progress of generations before to generations to come. This is nuts!"
