MSNBC’s Deutsch: ‘Extremely Dangerous’ Ocasio-Cortez ‘Handing’ Presidency Back to Trump
EXCERPT:
DEUTSCH: "Who would have thought that on the day our portly President declared an emergency when there wasn’t one, that would be the second most inane move of the day. When you have Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who I find extremely dangerous at this point, I hope she doesn't tweet that 'who are you, Donny Deutsch, I don't care about you or anything,' because basically she has a Twitter following, and that's her power base, to basically come out and say, as you pointed out, what a great thing it is, we can take that money and give it to teachers. It doesn’t exist. $27 billion, we put down $3 billion. That’s business. That’s what happens. And you attach this to the green deal and you are handing President Trump — President Trump now gets to go, oh, the Democrats don’t want jobs. The Democrats don’t want companies coming to your neighborhoods. The Democrats have a green deal that wants a 70 percent tax rate, that wants jobs for everybody, tuition handed to you, socialism. We are in a dangerous place and if people in the Party don’t start to speak up against people like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who is young and dynamic, but does not know what she’s talking about, and her and her cohorts, some of these new fresh Progressive faces are going to hand the presidency back to Donald Trump. I want everybody to understand that."
