“...That we haven’t forgotten the economic anxiety of the middle class but we’re going to be smart about this, we’re not going to be mean about it.”"

Liberal Hollywood writer-director Aaron Sorkin clarified his statements Monday after he caught fire Sunday from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for claiming that the new Democrats in Congress should “stop acting like young people.”
“I wasn’t referring to Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez specifically, I was referring to members of congress getting into Twitter battles. I was referring to them getting into public spats with people who plainly agree with them. From what I’ve seen, I’m confident that Ms. Ocasio-Cortez is going to rise to the considerable challenge and serve in the House with distinction,” Sorkin said in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter.
It's worth noting that Ocasio-Cortez had hit back at Sorkin on Twitter.
Sorkin, creator of “The West Wing,” had talked about politics and the current state of America during an interview with CNN’s Fareed Zakaria.
“I think there’s great opportunity here, now more than ever, for Democrats to be the non-stupid party,” he said.
He also said Democrats need to think more about average Americans: “...That we haven’t forgotten the economic anxiety of the middle class but we’re going to be smart about this, we’re not going to be mean about it.”

His reply back is veiled contempt.He WAS talking about Cortez and still is.
This is good stuff.
All Out Communist.
Of course she is going to attack the other proglibs that to her are not “radical enough.”
.
“The West Wing? Who dis?”
Libs fighting libs.
It’s ALL GOOD!.................
We need to encourage more in party fighting amongst the RATS
Bow to your sensei!! Lol.
Yes, but their 2020 Primary Ballot will be huge, and read like the Politburo’s Best of Show list. So we won’t have to do much...................
“...That we haven’t forgotten the economic anxiety of the middle class but we’re going to be smart about this, we’re not going to be mean about it.”"
Sorkin vs. Ocasio....Stalin v Trotsky, part deux
Who has the ice axe?
Ocasio-Cortez is one of these “purist” types, and she’s not shy about attacking fellow liberal/radical types who just aren’t radical enough.
The Democrats may well get a civil war going, between older or old line liberals, and the radical types for whom it’s not enough to be with them most of time, but who expect purity.
Stay tuned
But Sorkin kissed her hiney with “I’m confident that Ms. Ocasio-Cortez is going to rise to the considerable challenge and serve in the House with distinction,”
They loath and fear her. They should. She is poison for all.
Ocasio doesn't need to out-rages Sorkin. She needs to get more voters to the polls than he does.
White limousine liberals from Hollywood or their money will have no place in the new Democratic Socialist party that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is building.
The dems are going to be the non stupid party. We shall see.
I completely agree.
I liked The Newsroom, despite having the “conservative” boss spout liberal platitudes, which had me talking back to the television. Good show, though.
Che with t*ts.
I truly wonder how much of her act is calculated pre-choreographed theater by the Leftists. I just have a hard time believing stuff like this happens organically in politics.
“Chetits?”
HAHAHAHA, she would never figure that one out!
