Stop me if you heard this one- Dems don’t have a plan, just feelings.

DSA leader Megan Romer has NO answer when Fox News’s Martha MacCallum asks where the $49 TRILLION for her socialist agenda is coming from.

Romer calls the number “made-up.” Then MacCallum what HER number is, and it gets embarrassing fast.

MACCALLUM: “That’s $350,000 per household. Cancelling student debt, open borders and amnesty, Medicare for All. How are you going to pay for that?”

ROMER: “Yeah, I mean, we understand that the White House, who does not like us very much, managed to come up with some math that made us look bad.”

MACCALLUM: “So that’s $47.4 trillion, Medicare for All.”

ROMER: “Yeah, it’s a made up number.”

MACCALLUM: “You say it’s a made up number, but it was done by economists. Your number versus their number.”

So MacCallum throws her a lifeline.

MACCALLUM: “What’s your number when you add up everything on that list? What number did you come up with?”

ROMER: “There’s no like, one solid number because it depends on what pieces we can build in the meantime.”

MACCALLUM: “So just give me a basic number for your wish list.”

ROMER: “That number is outrageous.”

MACCALLUM: “What’s your number for your wish list?”

ROMER: “That number is ridiculous ... I’m not going to give you a solid number. That’s not what I’m here to do.”

The number isn’t just coming from White House economists.

Cato ran the DSA platform and found that confiscating the entire net worth of the 400 richest Americans, all $6.6 trillion of it, covers about 9% of the bill. Take every dollar of corporate profit on top of that and they’re still $29 trillion short.

Romer is more than happy to explain how she’ll take money from the “billionaire class” and hand it to the working class.

But ask how much it costs, or how she’ll actually pay for everything, and her entire argument collapses.

CONTEXT: The DSA’s own estimate for its billionaire wealth tax is $3.9 trillion over ten years. The agenda costs $49 trillion. Even by their math, the billionaires cover 8 cents of every dollar.

Umm that number would cover the cost over 10 years not perpetually. I can give myself or family medicine, IV’s, etc. if I had to and I have plenty of doctor friends but you geniuses who protest voted just voted for this, so enjoy the fallout

They could confiscate all wealth of “the rich” and it would barely put a dent in the cost of what they want to do.

The rest would come from the little people who already can’t afford basics.

The only way to make the numbers work is to severely reduce the quality and quantity of services.

If you take a budget of 7 trillion and divide it by every American, say 350 million you get 20k per person. Would you be better off with all her left wing BS or if the govt just handed you 20k a year instead?

One of the amusing things about the election is that now all the conservatives who hate Trump and gave power to the democrats have to rely on Trump to stop these destructive democrat policies they voted for.

The only thing standing between the anti-Trump morons and the consequences of their own actions is the man they hate.

When Trump vetoes democrat policies, will they still act like little bitches?

She’s not wrong.

It’s difficult to come up with a solid number when the plan is to flood the country with illegals. Those illegals are going to need benefits too.

On another note, is there one single attractive person on the left? Why do they all look like this?
