Possible independent presidential candidate and Democratic spoiler Howard Schultz on Tuesday dumped on Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’ "Green New Deal," warning it would be "immoral" to spend trillions of dollars on an "unrealistic" solution.

Howard Schultz rips the 'Green New Deal': 'It's not realistic'

”...not realistic...” the understatement of the year thus far.

I like Schultz for trying to drag the Democrat Partei back towards some form of fiscal sanity.

I LOVE the Westchester Barista for her insanity, and exposing how bat **** crazy the party actually is.

Thanks to both.

Two morons discussing the lack of detail of someone opposing the GND which has also no detail. Sure the GND won't actually ever do what it it says that it will, but since we like its "goals" the GND may not be criticized as unrealistic.

You know, when you cry about "Communist(!)" conspiracies around every corner, what happens when it actually becomes a problem? Hmmmmm?
 
Everything is impossible, until it's not.

Like the affordable care act, it's far from perfect so instead of trying to improve it, the monied folks start the propaganda campaign telling america how bad it is for the average person so let's kill it. This is how things work in america. We could have had electric cars years and years ago but we don't. Why? Because those with more money than the folks creating the electric vehicles didn't want the status quo upset. Too many things are done for the monied interests and not enough for the american people. There is no reason on earth we cannot be heading towards clean renewable sources of energy. Correction, one reason, those with the big dollars don't want the status quo upset. The usual reason.

To them and you to probably seeing race is a good thing?
Hogwash that breads tribalism, a color blind society is a better way and more sophisticated way to act.

The small text was designed to draw attention. It worked.

A copywriters trick.

Schultz is more in touch with reality than every current Democrat presidential candidate, and 99.99% of the Democrat Party.

Fantastic that he and The Westchester Barista are exposing the nutjob party.

I LOVE The Westchester Barista for the same reason I really liked Kucinich. Both are honest about where they want to drag the country. That’s great. It exposes the Dem Party’s ridiculousness... Puts Democrats in a corner.

You see how Menendez reacted to being asked a simple question about his opinion on the Green New Deal? ROTFLMFAO... Priceless.
 
Schultz isn't dragging anybody anywhere. His approval from all ends of the political spectrum is about 13%.

Oh... but the press he’s receiving, and the desperate pleas from the press.

Wonderful stuff.

If he gets 5%... ok with me.

If he runs... ok with me.

:)

When Democrats create bills that read like they're straight out of The Communist Manifesto, there's no option but to call it what it is: a communist conspiracy.

The most liberal state of California is killing it's dream of a high-speed rail. Hate to bring you back to reality.

Big news from California: Gov. Gavin Newsom, in his first State of the State speech, has said he is ending the state’s hugely expensive and hopelessly quixotic high-speed rail line. According to the San Francisco Chronicle website, Newsom said the high-speed rail, a project beloved of the just-retired four-term Gov. Jerry Brown, “would cost too much and take too long.”

Cost too much: an estimated $77 billion, far above the cost pitched to voters when the project was approved 52 to 48 percent in 2008. Take too long: its first phase had an estimated completion date of 2033, some 14 years from now.

I have written numerous times about this egregious folly. Brown seemed to think that high-speed rail was cutting-edge technology. Actually, the first high-speed rail line, Japan’s Shinkansen, was opened in 1964, 55 years ago and 69 years before the California high-speed rail’s latest estimated completion date

New California governor kills high-speed rail boondoggle

And your point? Whatever, let me make a counterpoint. If it was a republican project and a new governor came in and thought it was a waste of money, they would go through with it anyway. The dems at least have the gonads to say, this is a waste of money and is going to be shortened for the moment. It's called not being so rigid one can't or won't change.

If you had something to say you'd be dangerous

"Green New Deal,"

But you don't have the gonads to say the Green New Deal is a waste of money

Howard Schultz is a conservative posing as a centrist, so why should Dems assign any weight to his opinion?

Schultz doesn't believe in Medicare for all, which seems to work just fine in other first world countries. He also doesn't believe in high marginal tax rates, which was the staple from 1933-1980. Imagine, a billionaire who doesn't believe in high marginal tax rates? Schultz is all into cutting Social Security, but opposes any tax hike on the wealthy.

I love how zimmer paints Dems as radical, when Radical leftists are virtually nonexistent in American politics.

The coffee billionaire, turns out to have an approval rating of 4%, versus 40% disapproval. So, why should Dems think he's relevant?

Howard Schultz is an idiot, and another mouth piece for people who don't think owning 10 million dollars is good enough for them.

In short, I really don't care what Howard Schultz thinks.
