MSNBC Mocks Socialism Fears: ‘Oh My Gosh! It’s Going to Take All My Money!’

[See NewsBusters for more.] Journalists on MSNBC, Friday, fretted about the damage prominent socialists (such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez) will do to the Democratic Party. At the same time, MSNBC Live host Stephanie Ruhle mocked the American people as dummies for not understanding how much of an upside it has for them. Responding to the idea that socialism really means saving health care, Ruhle derided a broad swath of the country: “You're getting into details. You're talking about a nuanced powerful argument. But lots of people don't get into the argument.” She then shifted into what sounded like a bad Fargo accent, berating the stupidity of voters: "They just go, 'Oh, my gosh. Socialist? I can't have that! It's going to take all my money!'”
