by Caleb Howe | Jan 14th, 2019, 10:56 am
Former New Hampshire governor and Bush Sr. Chief of Staff John Sununu let loose in an interview with FNCs Bill Hemmer on Monday, trashing millennials and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) in a rowdy pushback against former President Barack Obama.
The topic was two-fold, covering both Obamas recent remarks about the Democrats needing new blood and an op-ed from the New York Times over the weekend pitching a Joe Biden run in 2020. Host Hemmer first played the clip of Obama before asking Sununu how he interpreted new blood.
Look, if I were Joe Biden, I would tell Obama to button his lip and butt out of the process, said Sununu, starting off feisty right out of the gate. The president has no business interjecting into every little thing thats happening nowadays.
He then went into his interpretation of the phrase, and bashed that new blood.
If Obama was referring to the quantitatively illiterate millennials who dont know the difference between a million, billion, or a trillion, like Ocasio Cortez, or perhaps to the anti-Catholic wing of the Democratic party like [Sen.] Kamala Harris (D-CA), the Republicans are thrilled to have him stick his nose where it ought not to be, said Sununu.
Okay, said Hemmer, who was slightly nonplussed.

(6,856 posts)I think it's sweet, though, that he still refers to President Obama as "the President." Even he knows, he was the last real Prez.
