Joe Lieberman: 'Democratic Party is not going to succeed' with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's policies

Former Sen. Joe Lieberman kept his feud with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez alight Sunday after he accused the socialist millennial of bringing down the Democratic Party.

“She just takes us back to a big-spending, big-taxing Democratic Party,” Mr. Lieberman said Sunday on Fox News. “And the Democratic Party is not going to succeed that way.”

On Thursday, Mr. Lieberman told Fox Business that Ms. Ocasio-Cortez, who pushes leftist ideas like free healthcare for all and free college tuition, is too “far out” for the majority of Americans.

“With all respect,” he said, “I certainly hope she’s not the future and I don’t believe she is.”

Ms. Ocasio-Cortez later fired back in an irreverent tweet, asking, “New party, who dis?”
