Ossoff GRILLED on MSNBC

Just wanted to flag Jon Ossoff’s interview with MSNBC from a few minutes ago.

Nicolle Wallace absolutely grills him on the vast network of Hollywood celebs he has backing him.

Wallace: Let me ask you, do you think Samuel Jackson, George Takei and Sam Watterson and Jessica Lange and Connie Britton or any of the celebrities who endorsed you understand the daily struggles of those in your District? Do you think Hillary Clinton’s failure with the biggest and brightest celebrities by her side and Jay Z and Beyonce, do you think it’s smart to have the celebrities on your side?

 Ossoff: I don’t honestly think voters care which figures –

 Wallace: Why have them campaign for you? Why have them, sir?

 Ossoff: Whether it’s — well, the campaign is focused on the issues of concern to voters here in the sixth District and whether it’s politicians from Washington or from celebrities across the country. That’s not what animates people here in Georgia. What keeps –

 Wallace: I don’t disagree you, sir, but if it’s not what animates people in Georgia why associate your campaign with something that we know it failed for Hillary Clinton, why not learn one of the lessons of her failed candidacy and ask celebrities to stay away from your race?

 It’s a great question. The real answer is that the face of the “resistance” loves Jon Ossoff. The “resistance”, after all, is how Ossoff’s campaign was born.
