21. WTF? "You got a 3 month reprieve"

What the ever-loving F is wrong with these CNN people? First, let me say Wassermann-Schultz did good work staking out the truth about some of these economic issues. ALL Dems must get laser-focused on these economic unfairness issues. This is the central issue for Americans and the main reason why Trump won. Even after what is objectively the best economy in 40 years, the public still rated Republicans as better for the economy. That just shows how ineffective we have been on the very most important issues. So I praise W-S for taking this on. Let's get 200 more of her colleagues on that team ASAP.

But WTF is with CNN? This dingbat finished by saying (my paraphrase) "YOU got a 3-month reprieve before you have to take on the Republicans trying to kill all these entitlements once again."

What the F does she mean by "YOU"? This is an attack on all non-billionaire Americans. Why are the Dems the ones who are expected, operating from a minority, to save the country from the people they just elected? I mean, if this woman would stop and listen to herself, she would realize how asinine she sounds with such a dumbass statement.

She should be asking something more like, "3 months from now, will any Republicans stand up on the side of the 200+ million Americans who have been paying into these programs for their entire working careers?"
