Sen. Kamala Harris told CNN Sunday that the U.S. can afford the left's expensive proposals such as the Green New Deal and Medicare for all.
"You'll hear things like the Green New Deal. You'll hear things like Medicare for all, you'll hear things like, whether it's taxes, you'll hear things - at what point do you say, that's our north star but we have to be realists?" CNN's John King asked.

The Green New Deal would cost into the trillions per year for just some of its goals, economists are warning.
"Of course we can afford it," Harris replied.
"Depending on which portions of the green new deal you choose to do first-That's money. You know what the Republicans are going to say, tax and spend liberals, pie in the sky".
"One of the things that I admire and respect is the measurement that is captured in three letters: ROI," Harris replied.
