CNN's Tapper gives up trying to get an answer from Ocasio-Cortez on health care costs

When liberals use the word "investments", hang on your wallets.

Rick Moran  "Is the democratic socialist candidate for Congress, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, about to become the dumbest congressman in the House?  Viewing this interview with CNN's Jake Tapper regarding the $40-trillion cost of her radical left agenda, she's certainly in the running.

"An exasperated Tapper finally gave up trying to get any kind of coherent answer about how much her socialist schemes would cost the taxpayer, saying, "I'm assuming I'm not going to get an answer for that other $38 trillion."

"Here's the video of the interview.  Ocasio-Cortez doesn't appear to be dodging the question as much as she doesn't understand what Tapper is asking." . . .

. . . "Both Ocasio-Cortez and Bernie Sanders have referred to those "savings" as significant. They aren't. Tapper's question about how we pay for the other $38 trillion goes over her head.

"I'm being kind saying she's a dunce rather than a liar. In order to lie effectively, a politician must be informed enough to fashion a plausible fib. The depthlessness of her intellect should be embarrassing to her socialist colleagues but won't be because they're as stupid as she is."

I'd have preferred the word "ignorant". TD
