In a mirror image of the Grand ole Party…..
Democrats, in the form Bernie Sanders, who isn’t a Democrat, and some others who haven’t even been sworn in to their jobs in Congress, are off in a race to the LEFT…..
THAT is recipe for dropping the support the party just earned in the recent Midterm Election….
The voters want a Better Economy….
End to the Trump Iran War….
And a sensible government that isn’t grabing people off the street and exporting then to places they’ve never been….
Moderation in the face of Donald Trump’s Chaotic Overreaching….
Jonathan Chait: “Bernie Sanders and his acolytes have spent the past decade insisting that Democrats would command national majorities if only they embraced his left-wing policies. After last week’s election, the movement claimed vindication…”
“In reality, the results point in the opposite direction. Almost every Democratic Senate nominee gained a higher vote share in their state than Kamala Harris did two years earlier, but the five left-wing candidates backed by Sanders accounted for the four smallest swings in contested races. The one candidate who underperformed Harris, Troy Jackson in Maine, was a Sanders-backed progressive. By the same measure, moderate Democrats in the House also outperformed progressives.”
