The Democratic Party has thrown blue-collar workers under the bus while claiming they are the party of the working man and woman. Recently, Democratic Socialists swept several Democratic congressional primaries in New York. One raving lunatic named Angie Nixon won her primary in Florida last night.
Currently, we are looking at about 20 communists [calling themselves Democratic Socialists] in Congress. Twenty may not seem like a lot, but sweeping the board and pushing out Democratic incumbents is a big deal in politics.
Establishment Democrats are concerned, but they aren’t fighting it. They are going along with it.
Bill O’Reilly on the Dead End Neo-Democrat Party
“First, what is a Democrat socialist? Marketing aside, it’s a communist,” says Bill O’Reilly, who tends to downplay everything in politics. “The official platform wants public ownership of corporations to seize the means of production. They want to “abolish the carceral state, which means no police, no prisons, of course, no guns for self-defense, so we are sheep to the slaughter. They want higher taxes, more job and gun regulations, a packed Supreme Court, which effectively abolishes the Constitution, Medicare for all, so you can wait a year for surgery, like Canadians, the Green New Deal to return us to medieval water wheels, no air conditioning or dialysis machines for you, sinful carbon footprint, you, and they want to abolish ICE, so billions can be mass-migrated to America, go on welfare, vote for the same socialism that built whatever third world paradise they came from.”
Traditional blue-collar Democrats don’t want that. The union guys, blacks, and Hispanics don’t want them. In the four elections in New York, the Democrat socialists did very poorly among minorities, especially blacks, who are even tougher on crime and even more pro-job than whites.
When Pew analysis found blacks are pro-job and tough on crime by nine to one, for Hispanics it’s five to one. So, how did Democrat socialists win the Big Apple, which is 70% minority: by wooing New York’s educated whites.
One study found a 40-point swing the more college degrees in the district. Now, considering liberal whites vote like flies, they swamp the other 70.
Democrats are trading in their big base for this narrow base, at least in New York, says O’Reilly in his talking point in early July.
Republicans have to abandon their dead-end country clubbers for the green pastures of middle-class and blue-collar Reagan Democrats, but Dems are ditching those lush pastures for dead-end nutters, trannies, and guys who say let pinkos in the party to be fair, he says.
Finally, O’Reilly concludes that Democrats doubled down on race talk to try and scare blacks and Latinos, but they put their greatest efforts into the activists, the stuff that excites professional activists, left-wing professors, and pretty much nobody else. This faculty-first strategy has almost completely lost the blue-collar workers, who are now Trump’s base, and even the minorities are jumping ship. So, Trump ran even in 2024 among Hispanics, and he tripled the Republican share of the black vote. In short, Republicans traded up, and Democrats are trading down.
Once the radical progressives appeared on the scene, communism was inevitable, just as socialism always becomes communism.
