Former ‘Cheers’ star Christie Alley blasted former top Hillary aide Peter Dao over his socialist attack on capitalism in a heated exchange on Twitter.
As Fox News reports:
Alley, 68, responded to Peter Daou, who has worked with top Democrats including Hillary Clinton John Kerry, and most recently, Bernie Sanders, after he posted a tweet questioning why any one person should ever have $1 billion in personal wealth.
You asked for ONE good reason a single person should have a billion dollars.. I gave you ONE. There are several more. You didn’t ask for a debate or a thesis. Your request must have been rhetorical so you could demonstrate your brightness ???????????????????????? https://t.co/WQ9CDRwYFn

“Because they created something so f—ing marvelous that the whole world wanted it!” Alley fired back.
Daou eventually responded to the celebrity by mocking her point of view and arguing that billionaires rarely come into wealth due to hard work.
She followed up her response with a third and final tweet admonishing the growing tide of democratic socialism that’s growing in America.
PS all you Socialists can “school” me till your heads fall off.. I will never NEVER be agreeable to a Socialist government ..and your renaming it “democratic socialist” is as a dumb as “gentle nazi”…so save your ink and move along

Dao’s talking points fell flat as they are completely disconnected from reality, much like the entire Democratic platform seems destined to do in the 2020 election.
