Ocasio-Cortez stirs fear in heart of NRA

-

The National Rifle Associatio­n is running scared of socialists.

Democratic Socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's primary win over Rep. Joe Crowley (D-N.Y.) on Tuesday prompted the gun lobbying group to issue a panic-stricken call to arms.

"Left-wing socialists have infiltrate­d our nation and want to fundamenta­lly change the country we love," NRATV host Grant Stinchfiel­d warns in an over-the-top video clip posted online Wednesday. "The socialist movement in America is real. It is dangerous. And it is more powerful than you may think."

Stinchfiel­d goes on to paint Ocasio-Cortez as a threat to America without a whiff of evidence to support his claim.

Ocasio-Cortez “openly despises the very system that makes America the greatest country in the world," he adds.
