I think the Dem’s the author is referring to are the ones that have money, live in the nice white neighborhoods, can afford to live in Greenwich, Conn; Asheville, NC; Virginia Highlands in Atlanta; whatever the nice, white liberal, upscale neighborhood is in Austin; or can live in a nice expensive highrise in any city they choose, while still being at double arms distance from those beneath them.
Their money insulates them from all of it. They can vote whatever way they want because their money is protected. They can champion all the causes and even throw a few bucks at them, once in a while, but there are layers and layers of insulation between them and the rest of the Left. They’ll go to their dinner parties and talk about the ills of the world and how liberal policies will fix them all, even not one of those policies has improved anything in the last 100yrs.
But, at the end of the day, they will guard their money like Smaug guarding the gold in The Hobbit. They will use every tax deduction in the IRS code to keep as much of it as possible. So, at the end of the day, if the Democratic Party is taken over by Cortez and Sanders and they start losing their money, they’ll all start voting Republican.
The CPUSA quit running candidates for President in the 2008 election. They decided that the dimrats were so close to their ideals that they would save their money.
The DEM politicians want to be leaders of socialist individuals, and retain all of the perks of being unquestioned leaders in this country.
An interesting admission. It means that there are no criteria by which the outcomes may be measured, which is why they're entirely unfazed by what is happening in Venezuela. Politically, it means that the only thing they actually are certain of is that they want power and mean to exercise it however they please.
When they manage to crash economies . . . they’ve already started with local and state
And businesses and the productive people are GTHO
“””When will Democrats wake up and resist the socialists’ scheme to take over their party?”””
What a silly question.
The Democrats know exactly what they are doing. The Democrats are speaking directly to the millions of voters who have been brainwashed in the Socialist Schools and Universities over the past 50 years.
Except for the very, very low information voter over the age of 60, the Democrats have lost all of the senior citizens who received their education prior to say 1975.
That question should have been asked about 40 years ago. The “progressives” (i.e. the Leftists, A.K.A. the Communists) took over the party in 1972, lost it for a little time under Carter, and have been steadily building their strength since then. Traditional Dems like Harry Truman, John Kennedy, Scoop Jackson, Sam Nunn and even Hubert Humphrey - ALL of whom were Americans and patriots before they were Dems - would have no place in this party today (and wouldn’t have since at least 2000).
The horse already escaped; who cares if the barn door is closed now.
There are only 2 solutions that work out well for this country: first, such a series of titanic defeats for the Dems that they become strictly a coastal party - with maybe 35 Senators and 180 reps (we’re not too far from that) - so that those party bigwigs who remain either toss the Commies out, or leave and form an new party, with the Commies too small to affect policy (but not too small to annoy the crap out of everyone); alternative #2 would have a huge up-front cost...civil war. I certainly don’t favor it, but some large events are pretty much destined to occur no matter what individuals either prefer or do. The only other alternative is that these bastards take over, and that won’t end well for 50-100 million of us.
In short, we either defeat them or they defeat us - there IS no middle ground, no reforming of the Dems.
I don’t understand why this is a surprise.
It does expose the media as a propaganda machine to the international leftists. The Frankfurt School.
Obama WAS raised by two marxists.
His parents met in a Russian class.
Obama claimed he was a Marxist.
Obama never claimed NOT to be a Marxist at any point up until he was president.
As such, it is clear that he did exactly what he could, to the extent of his elected powers, to advance his un-advertised beliefs.
When will we unblock Obama’s college records? That alone should tell all.
They won’t.
Never as long as their constituency is ignorant enough to believe their bull excrement
