JEANINE PIRRO (HOST): [Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez] is doing what she does best, rallying the Trump haters by demanding once again that the duly-elected president be kicked out of office. Here’s her latest tweet this week: "The president is corrupt and must be impeached." And give her credit, like any good politician, she knows how to fire up her base. Joining me now, Fox News contributor, host of The Dan Bongino Show, Dan Bongino. All right Dan, what do you think of this woman? She’s out there and hootin’ and hollerin’ again.
...
DAN BONGINO (FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR): On AOC, her Twitter feed is getting so outrageous. Candidly, judge, it’s getting really difficult to take her seriously anymore. That President Trump should be impeached on allegations that -- you think he’s profiting off of people buying a few hotel rooms in a Trump resort? Judge, let’s try to be rational, unlike AOC’s Twitter feed of absurdities for a minute. The president doesn’t take a salary. He leaves about $500,000 plus a year on the table to not take a salary, number one.
Number two, do you actually think that endless, BS charges of treason, all this other nonsense -- President Trump is an instaphobic, phobeaphobe -- any kind of word that ends in -- do you think this is helping his business? You really think President Trump ran for the presidency thinking this was going to build his business profile? I mean, do you -- I get it, you know, she doesn’t have a lot of business experience, AOC. Any to speak of.
PIRRO: Business? She’s a bartender.
BONGINO: But -- exactly. This is so -- this is so obviously stupid that any rational person thinking about it would be like, you really believe this, that the president is profiting off this? It's insane.
