He added, “There’s no amount of money that you could give people that they would think is too much and if you were to ask AOC ‘what’s the most somebody should get,’ she couldn’t possibly give you an answer. You ask her, who is going to pay for all of this?”

The former House speaker also declared the spending plans of Ocasio-Cortez and other Democrats “a fantasy” that is putting the nation “on the edge … of significant inflation.”

“It’s a fantasy, so we’re in a situation right now where we’re on the edge, I think, of significant inflation, because the government is spending far more than it’s taking in,” Gingrich commented.

“It is putting dramatic inflationary pressure on the economy, and every American will end up being poorer because of the policies of the left-wing Democrats,” he added.
