One of the most ardent leftist economic writers in American media actually claimed that the far left “has no significant influence on the Democratic Party.” And no, he wasn’t being facetious.
New York Times columnist Paul Krugman went after his typical target — Republicans — in an Oct. 16 screed whining that GOPers were blaming President Joe Biden for the Hamas terrorist attacks on Israel. “Like much of what the American right says these days, these smears were both vile and infantile.” The same “infantile” Krugman once called the GOP “economic terrorists,” but who’s keeping score? Krugman’s oblivious take then descended into pure comedy: “More generally, it’s striking how both the far left, which has no significant influence on the Democratic Party, and the far right, which largely runs the G.O.P., are American solipsists.” Uh, what?

Well, given his jokes of a performance on things economic, we already know that he struggles to perform simple arithmetic tasks.
Krugman went Full Retard a long time ago.
Paul Krugman is nothing but a useful idiot for the commies.
The dims are the far left. There is no separation.
“In reality these demonstrations contributed to $2 billion in damages from looting, arson and vandalism. “
This is fake news that has now become a fact.
Axios wrote up to $2billion in insured losses in the Minneapolis/St. Pete area in June/July-
that insanely has now been stretched to incl all insured + uninsured damages nationwide.
This guy is 100% wrong ALL the time. Quite a feat.
Apparently not for this 'nobel laureate.' In Krugman's case 'noble laureate' must be synomomous with 'idiot savant.'
huh??
LMAO
how they define the far left and we define it are two different things!
ilhan omar is the only one this guy might in some cases say is left wing, but Nancy Pelosi and crew are mainstream!
LMAO
Truly a whore.
Democratic Party = Maoism
They don’t require any extra help
What an idiotic statement from Krugman, the Democrats are the far Left. Half of the Republican Party are Leftists too as we can see in their refusal to vote for Jim Jordan.
“Just when I think ya can’t say anything dumber ya just keep on talkin’ ‘’.- Hank Hill, “King Of The Hill.’’
...claimed that the far left “has no significant influence on the Democratic Party.”
That’s because the Democrat Party is influencing the “far left”, having won the race to the bottom.
...but...the far left IS the Democrat Party...
Considering he is part of the extreme left, I’m sure he doesn’t see it.
I needed a laugh tonight...
He can’t see the influence of the left on the democrat party for the same reason a fish doesn’t know it is wet.
