Reported by Western Lensman: Incredible exchange here as Hakeem Jeffries gets IRATE with CNBC’s Becky Quick for daring to press him on his robotic ACA talking points:
Quick: *Cuts Jeffries off to try to make him actually answer a question*
Jeffries: “You can ask the question, I’ll provide the answer!"
Quick: "Answer the question, instead of going back."
Jeffries: "I'm providing an answer in order to provide context!"
Quick: "It's important context to make me realize that I don't think you want to get a deal done. I think this is something where you'd like to see the rates go higher and allow the Republicans to hang themselves with that."
Jeffries: "That's absolutely a ridiculous assertion. Shame on you for saying that! It’s not a partisan issue for us!"
Quick: *eyeroll*
This guy absolutely loses it at ANY semblance of media pushback to his scripted, robotic regurgitations.
