Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez shows 'basic ignorance of Economics 101': Joe Scarborough

[TalkRadio1]

MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” panel on Friday was unanimous in slamming Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for her role in pressuring Amazon to scrap plans for its second headquarters in New York City.

Co-host Joe Scarborough said the plan was killed by “people who don’t even understand basic economics,” and that left-wing politicians such as Ms. Ocasio-Cortez “ignored” the majority of black and Latino New Yorkers “who needed these jobs, who wanted these jobs.”

“The people who wanted the jobs the least are white elites in Manhattan, according to all of the polls,” Mr. Scarborough fumed, adding later that Ms. Ocasio-Cortez demonstrates a “basic ignorance of Economics 101.”

“We are in a dangerous place,” panelist Donny Deutsch agreed. “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, they’re going to hand the presidency back to Donald Trump.”

He's not wrong. Andrew Cuomo said the collapse of this deal is the greatest tragedy of his tenure. Don't forget this is the guy who DID give Elon Musk a $750,000,000. solar panel plant in Buffalo that is sitting empty. Literally everything Cuomo touches turns to shit.
The loss of this Amazon project will impact New York for generations with the loss of incidental development and th loss of any other company even considering a substantial project there.
I hope this is the end and the beginning.

Probably the only time in the last several years he's been right. Mika must have cut him off for making that observation.

That's good!

This is a case of "be careful what you wish for". The liberal Democrats have taken just enough rope to hang the entire party. They thought the midterm elections represented a paradigm shift. They did not. It was the normal shift that occurs in every mid-term. The Democrats have taken that and ran with it, revealing their true essence. In the weeks after his re-election Andrew Cuomo has his lowest ever approval numbers. He didn't even have the weight to put down an unqualified, ignorant, radical brand new congresswoman who received 15,000 votes. Pathetic. This liberal orgy is perfectly timed to blow up in the Democrat's face when the rubber hits the road. The bad part, is they are handing Donald Trump a second term, for which I will never forgive them.

I think it's the beginning of the next mass extinction. You think maybe they could equal the Permian event and we could lose 96% of all progressives?
