CNN’s Serfaty: Dems Are Angry About N.C. Rep. Switching Parties Giving GOP Veto-Proof Supermajority

‘It was also notable that the White House came out with a statement after this announcement’

EXCERPT:

HARLOW: “What -- what are Democrats saying?”
SERFATY: “Well, they're angry about this move, and were surprised even though had been talking about for some time, a lot of Democrats saying that she misrepresented herself and her policies to her constituents that voted her into office by a big majority. And it was also notable that the White House came out with a statement after this announcement, really acknowledging the big legislative ticket items are up for grabs that North Carolina's will have to vote on now. And with these new super majorities, it makes it much harder for Democrats to stop some of them. The White House saying bedrock American freedoms are at stake in votes in North Carolina, and they're calling on those who are in the statehouse to vote they say their conscience is rather than the politics of the moment.”
