-- TAPPER also had ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ on “State of the Union”: TAPPER: “Your platform has called for various new programs, including Medicare for all, housing as a federal right, a federal jobs guarantee, tuition-free public college, canceling all student loan debt.

“According to nonpartisan and left-leaning studies friendly to your cause, including the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities or the Tax Policy Center, the overall price tag is more than $40 trillion in the next decade. You recently said in an interview that increasing taxes on the very wealthy, plus an increased corporate tax rate, would make $2 trillion over the next 10 years. So, where is the other $38 trillion going to come from?”

… MOMENTS LATER, after Ocasio-Cortez did not answer the question…TAPPER: “So, I’m assuming I’m not going to get an answer for the other $38 trillion. But we will have you back, and maybe we can go over that.”
