"Democrats are in trouble and they don't know how to get out."
"Fried is right because by letting the communist DSA wag the blue dog, Democrats are not going to win over the 2.5 million people who escaped communist regimes in Cuba, Nicaragua and Venezuela. They make up almost 10% of the state’s population."
"Democrats have a poison called DSA—Democrat Socialists of America—a communist organization that made Mamdani mayor of New York, New York. If communism can make it there, it will make it anywhere, right?
"But Democrat officials know voters are rejecting it—for now.
"This week, WPLG in South Florida asked the party’s chairman, Nikki Fried, “How is this conversation between your front running gubernatorial candidates who are very centrist, very moderate Democrats, and some of the party’s real progressive Democrats who are running against them, looking for attention, and kind of have a national wave at their back?”
"Fried replied, “You nailed it on the head. Florida’s different. The coalitions that have to be built here in Florida are different. You know, we have hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of people that call Florida home, that left communists and socialist and authoritarian regimes to find a better way of life here in the state of Florida. And for any candidate that wants to win here in our state, regardless of where they are in the partisan agenda, they have to build a coalition.
"'That means that coalition has to be Democrat, Republican, and independent, and to take the values of those of us here in the state of Florida. We are different and we attest to the candidates that have been showing up and winning here in the state of Florida.
'“They are building that coalition because they’re authentic. They’re hearing the issues that are on the ground. They’re knocking on those doors. They’re talking to the voters. They’re hearing that the pain and the suffering and the concern and the scared of so many people that they’re talking to on an everyday basis.
'“So, we’re building that coalition and every part of our nation is different and Florida is certainly a different beast when it comes to politics. The coalition is different here in the state of Florida and I have confidence in the voters of my primary that they’re going to pick candidates that are going to be able to win in a general election.” . . .
"Unfortunately, Fox appears to be alone in asking Democrats about the DSA’s platform. The rest of the news media are, apparently, happy to help the DSA hide its agenda … until it’s too late." I&I Editorial Board
Why Are Dems Dodging Questions About The DSA’s Radical Platform? – Issues & Insights . . . "When Fox asked Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez if she supported the DSA’s call to eliminate the Senate, her barely coherent response was:
“I mean, again, I’m not running for uh, for, any larger office presently. That is, of course, a constitutional question. Um, and I … that, that’s a constitutional question.”
"When asked again if she supported getting rid of the Senate as an institution, AOC mumbled about how “I don’t support elements of the institution that were founded on, uh, on Jim Crow.”... It must be Joy Reid we have to thank for bringing back to life the meme "Jim Crow". TD
