When will the Democrats have a reckoning within their own party?

Clearly, the radicalized and extreme "fringe" is now the base and runs the Democrat party. These are the living wage, free healthcare for all, open borders, the socialists, communists, anthem and flag haters, SJW types. These people are the face of the Democrat party.

Where are the "traditional" democrats? I would harken back to JFK, but he'd be considered an uber conservative Republican by the left's standards now. But hell, even the 1992/1996 Bill Clinton Democrats. The ones that recognized the harm of illegal immigration, and had a basic understanding of economics and how you couldn't tax everyone that earns an income 75% of their salaries. WHere are they?

Do they exist anymore?
Have they jumped ship and now vote 3rd party, Republican, or don't vote at all?
Will the common sense Democrats ever take back control of that circus?

There needs to be 2 sides to every coin. Hell I wish we had more than just 2 parties to choose from , because the Republicans have some of the same issues, but they appear to be working themselves out. Why must extremism of the left be the new norm for the Democrats?

They lost over 1,000 seats under Obama, nationwide. And the result? They became progressively more extreme.

The FACE of their party is Perez and Ellison.


Think about that for a minute.

Dem leaders- crazy old bich from Cali and a old dude from NY.

They had to trot out a Kennedy, any Kennedy, to bail them out. It failed.

They take Maxine Waters seriously. I'm serious.

Look around- see any Sam Nunn's or Zell Miller's? They don't exist in the Dem party anymore. And if they do they can't get anywhere due to Nutty Nancy and Crying Chucky

When there are 2 left and one will say to the other "hey I think we fricked up; wanna try doing something positive for America?" The other one replies "but that's what they're doing"

It's coming down the track, the only reason Pelosi keeps a stranglehold on Dim's in the House is because the Black Caucus keeps her there. She's despised by the Majority of Dim's. Just,look at her antics during rounds of applause, looking around to see who stood and who didn't.

Schumer is a feckless Cuck.

So out of touch putting that Kennedy on as a rebuttal, to lecture people. A Kennedy, please spare me the sanctimony.

Where are those “traditional democats “ from the past. Answer : mostly independents and some republicans now. Democrat party has become to radical/liberal for them.

I hope they never do.

They have exposed the sheer lunacy, AntiAmericanism, and pessimism of leftist politics. Their brand of Balkanization and socialism is poisonous to a nation as diverse as ours. Their antics serve as a necessary cautionary tale.

The faces of the Democratic Party are Marx, Lennon, Stalin, Mao, and Che Guevara.

They have been totally unmasked.

When Tim Ryan is able to kidnap the rest of them and successfully deprogram them.
