NewsNation host Chris Cuomo, brother of former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo—who was recently defeated by Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani—is placing blame on Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for what he describes as the downfall of the Democratic Party.
Cuomo criticized Ocasio-Cortez, a prominent supporter of Mamdani, for pushing the party too far to the left, though that was not the exact reason why he was being critical. Rather, Cuomo came down on ‘AOC’ for claiming that President Donald Trump should be impeached for striking Iran’s nuclear weapons facilities.
“You are killing your party because you are not a real one because you’re doing what’s good for you in a vacuum with your little social media following, you know, different than a pod bro and you’re killing your party. And Democrats better wake the f**k up and realize that you’re better than this. Be with the 80, not the 20,” he said.
