Replying to @akabeth10 and @RNCResearch
It’s depressing. I found an old Newsweek from 96 and i couldn’t believe how sensible democrats were: anti-crime, anti-illegal immigration, pro-blue collar etc. They’re unrecognizable now.

Exactly. Why I can't vote Democrat for the foreseeable future. They do not want independent thinkers.

I really don’t get how Kaitlyn Collins has managed to frick her way to where she is at CNN. I guess eager definitely always beats pretty, because she’s rather mannish-looking.

So the old f'cks like Schumer, Whitehouse, Hirono, Reed, Kelly, Schiff, Blumenthal, etc., will move further to the Left.

That's what I've been saying. The "Big Tent" includes those with wildly different ideas that are incompatible. Therefore, something has to give. Either the moderate wing fights back, or they move on and create to new party. The loons represent such small number, but they are controlling things right now. There are high profile Democrats that have given in and embraced their new Commie partners. I think within the next year, there will be a breakoff party.

It’s either that or be eaten alive by the Frankenstein’s monster they’ve created.

They have no real values to begin with, so going with the flow will be easier for them than most. But eventually even that won’t be enough.

"I didn't leave the Democrats, the Democrats left me." Pretty common phrase among the Dems who actually still have functioning brain cells.
And the awareness to see things with eyes open, instead of with just the blue tinged goggles.

Now. If only they could figure out that just staying home on election day, is still as much of the problem as that particular party is...

If I didn't know what a sleazy scumbag Little Davy is, he sounds sensible in that vid. Without all his lefty rhetoric, TDS bs, and anti-gun horse crap.
But knowing his background, stuff he's done, things he's been involved with... Every time I see his face, I wish he'd have gone to school that day.

Dude I know from North Carolina that is a DSA moron has the same mindset. It's essentially the dumbest political strategy of all time. You'll never attain power without some moderate support.

I credit Trump for instilling manhood in these weaklings.

Moderates accomplish nothing, anywhere. You're either in or out on decision making. Moderates sit idly by, acting about the fray. (They call them moderators/referees for a reason and they're not well liked by any.)

CNN: “What would you say to the moderates in your party?” HOGG: “They don’t have the right values."


1) There aren't any moderates in the Democrat Party. The last 2 were Tulsi Gabbard and RFK, Jr., and they were both run out of the party. Tilsi was wrongly called a "Russian asset" by Hillary Clinton (sound familiar?), and RFK, Jr., A KENNEDY, wasn't even allowed to challenge Brandon for the 2024 Democrat Party nomination.

You have a better chance of seeing Martians at Walmart than you do of seeing true moderates in the Democrat Party.

2) To show you how much of a nutjob James Carville is, this brain-dead buffoon David Hogg is who Carville wants to take over the DNC, even though Carville is upset with the Marxists/Communists trying to take charge of the party. James, just how stupid are you?

Carville is another one who’s simply in survival mode, trying to weather the monster he helped create.

This has been the case for a while now. Anyone not seeing this is lying to themselves.

Correct they purged the blue dogs years ago.

Good. Maybe they'll stay home and not vote this election. Especially in NOVA.
