The Democratic Party is in full civil war mode now.
This is not the time for such fighting, however, if the Democratic Party hopes to regain control of either chamber of Congress or hold onto key governships throughout the country.
But I say let the Democratic Party implode. The leadership have appeased the most destructive, anti-American, vile elements within their conference. They have stood by and allowed communists and Nazis to invest, infiltrate, and invade their party.
They have embraced this Cultural Marxist subtely, and they deserve to reap the wind for their hateful failures.
And Jayapal is all in on the destruction:
Arthur Christopher,
Right now there’s a lot of talk about what Democrats need to do to win back power — and more importantly, what we’ll do when we actually have power.
But to answer both of these questions, what the Democratic Party is going to have to decide is “what do we stand for?”
Because we can’t just be against Donald Trump. We have to be for something.
Yet even now there are already pundits, and some of my colleagues in Congress, who want to push to the center. They want us to become Trump-lite instead of articulating the vision of what we stand for on our own terms, informed by what we see in our conversations and hear on the ground and see in the data.
I couldn’t disagree more.
I believe we need to clearly stand up for our principles. We need to respond to the urgency of people’s economic concerns. And we need to offer a real contrast to the Republican Party.
So here’s what I stand for:
- Medicare for All.
- Living wages for all.
- Universal childcare.
- An economy that works for everyone.
And I am so proud of the progressive candidates who are standing up and saying loudly and clearly what they believe in as they run in Democratic primary elections across the country. Over the past few months, they’ve been winning races in state after state — and we need to learn from their success.
I’m going to continue using my voice to push our party to take bold action that centers the real, pressing concerns that poor and working people across this country are dealing with right now.
But since my very first campaign, I’ve never taken a dime of corporate PAC money. Which means I’m counting on your grassroots support to keep fighting for our progressive vision for the future.
In solidarity,
Pramila Jayapal
