Republicans aren’t the only ones concerned about Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez’s complete ignorance of basic economics, or the fact that she’s taking her horrible ideas mainstream.

AOC fought against Amazon’s bid to build a headquarters in New York City, prompting Amazon to back out of the potential deal. Had the deal gone through, Amazon would’ve brought roughly 25,000 new jobs to the community, not to mention the other immeasurable economic benefits. Worse still, AOC celebrated Amazon’s decision to look elsewhere. Amazon and other New York City politicians were not kind in their criticism of Ocasio-Cortez.

Friday, MSNBC host Joe Scarborough lamented Ocasio-Cortez’s economic ineptitude and expressed concern that if those who know better don’t start speaking out, AOC might cost Democrats the White House come 2020. Scarborough devoted a whopping seven minutes of show time to the subject.

The Washington Free Beacon has the story:

MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” broke away from its daily grievances with President Donald Trump Friday to accuse Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) of economic illiteracy and helping reelect the president.

For seven minutes Friday morning, the show’s hosts and guests worried that the self-proclaimed Democratic-socialist was flaunting her ignorance and celebrating the loss of American jobs. “Morning Joe” co-host Joe Scarborough lamented that New York “was robbed of this Amazon opportunity” at the expense of the most needy.

…The plan was killed, Scarborough said, by “people who don’t even understand basic economics.” In opposing Amazon’s arrival, Ocasio-Cortez “ignored over 80% of Latinos in the New York area and 70% of black Americans in the New York area who needed these jobs, who wanted these jobs.”

Donny Deutsch explained that Ocasio-Cortez had aligned herself with the “white morons in Manhattan” against New York’s working class. Not one to miss an opportunity to mock the president, he marveled that Ocasio-Cortez had managed to out-bungle him. “Who would have thought on a day our portly president declared an emergency, it would be the second-most inane move of the day,” he said.

Deutsch warned Ocasio-Cortez and her outlandish policy preferences would guarantee another four years of Trump as president. Ocasio-Cortez has endorsed a series of policy aims that drew equal parts alarm and ridicule from both parties, though 2020 Democratic hopefuls have lined up to endorse it. It proposes updating every building in America, skyrocketing taxes, and seeking to eliminate airplanes. Deutsch explained:

You attach this to the Green Deal and … President Trump now gets to go: ‘Oh, the Democrats don’t want jobs, the Democrats doesn’t want companies coming to your neighborhoods, the Democrats have a Green Deal that wants a 70% tax rate, … socialism. We are in a dangerous place and if people in the party doesn’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.

The president has spoken out more forcefully against socialism and massive government expansion in recent weeks, perhaps testing out a 2020 message. He will be in Miami Monday for a speech on what the White House describes as the “dangers of socialism.”

“I find [her]extremely dangerous at this point,” Deutsch said.

It’s almost a gimmee that Trump will have a 2020 win, but this crazy-eyed, doorknob dumb, grand niece of Bernie’s will merely be a footnote amid the malignant resident evil which infests the Democrat party.

Ocasio-Cortez found her natural consistency, morons.

No, Joe. YOUR party has a far worse problem.

Go to this article (I know I know it’s the Washington Compost), sort the comments by ‘most liked’ and just read comments.

The amount of liberals convinced that yes, this was actually GIVING money to Amazon, is disturbing.

AOC is a symptom of the rot in YOUR party, not the cause.

Their real problem is that she is saying openly what they are trying to hide about their ‘plans’

“President Trump now gets to go: ‘Oh, the Democrats don’t want jobs, the Democrats doesn’t want companies coming to your neighborhoods, the Democrats have a Green Deal that wants a 70% tax rate, … socialism.”

So you’re worried that Trump will be able to turn people against the Dems with the truth? Yeah. I can see where that’s a problem for you.

Considering his track record on predictions I’d say she’s about to implode, big league.

Morning Joke calling Gidget ‘ignorant.’

What’s the old saying? – The pot calling the kettle black?

Meme out.

Amazon moves second headquarters from New York City to Pyongyang, citing friendlier climate for business and better educated workforce.

She’s your girl, lefties – eyes as big as saucers. Brain as empty as a corpse with the brain removed. Clueless as Slippery Soap.

Funny that I can’t recall Donny calling Hillary “portly”. So being overweight is accepted only if you are a Dem I guess.

“When you look at what happens in New York City and New York state, we’re losing people like crazy,” she [GOP strategist Susan Del Percio] added. “We are going to lose our influence in Washington during the next redistricting because we’ll lose one to two congressional seats. Now we’re telling business don’t come here.”

I wonder just who’s district might ‘go away’ in 2022
