Fox's Forbes Fear Mongers A Sanders Presidency Would Lead To ‘More Violence, War, And Bloodshed’

Fox host David Asman began a “business block” discussion by “just asking,” “If Democratic Presidential candidate Bernie Sanders wins the White House, would that put taxpayers in the poorhouse?” The fear mongering only ramped up from there.

Panelist Steve Forbes predicted “a severe recession or depression.”

FORBES: Bernie Sanders would make Barack Obama look like Ronald Reagan. Would mean massive new tax increases, which would hurt investment, turn already a troubled economy right off the road into a ditch into a severe recession or depression, he’d blow up the global trading system with his protectionism, and in terms of health care, he would socialize that as well which would crush new research and development.

Come on, at some point we have to start asking what does violate the first amendment. Am I wrong in thinking this crosses the line?
