Ever since the 2016 primaries, the Warren/Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) wing of the party has become more vocal, more active, and completely blinded with rage over Donald Trumps 2016 win. Many are saying the moderate, centrist path that kept Bill Clinton in the White House for two terms is over, and that Jon Ossoff, who lost the most expensive House race in Georgia, lost because he took a middle way in messaging. Theyre gung-ho about making single-payer the new litmus test. First, theyre having a fight about abortion and whether backing pro-life Democrats is akin to making a deal with the devil. Right now, after playing defense, or not even speaking much at all, the more even-keeled (for lack of a better term) Democratsmany of them Obama and Clinton supporters are pushing back, warning that this rush to the Lenin line is going to backfirebig league.
Moderate Democrats are pushing back at Sen. Elizabeth Warrens (D-Mass.) view that progressives have taken control of the party.
Interviews with Democratic strategists, donors and organizers from across the country reveal deep disagreement with Warrens premise that progressives make up the heart and soul of the Democratic Party.
The clash is further proof of the divide in the party after 2016s disappointment. Even as they face a Republican Party torn over how to deal with President Trump, Democrats are still trying to figure out what kind of a party they are.

Actually, they act more like Maoists.
You mean Hillary and Barack?
They’re a little late, I believe.
The Democratic Party is now a radical Leftist party. Anybody in the party who fails to be a radical has been or will be purged. This will render the party to be limited to the bluest of the Blue States. The Republicans should be able to easy take advantage of this, but their leaders are idiots and complacent.
It’s really a crap party if Obama is considered a moderate!!!
The Kenyan DID have a Christmas ball with Mao on it, I recall.
They don’t like competition................
> So, they would be Stalinists, then. How is that a good thing?
Stalin for all his mass murdering evil ways wasn’t as bad Trotsky. Trotsky was encouraging an endless reign of terror were people not left wing enough last week were put to death this week. It required people to go further and further left just like the reign of terror in the French revolution. The ultimate outcome would have been something akin to the Khmer Rouge and their endless killing fields.
Stalin stop the reign of terror by killing anyone to the right of the Stalin and killing anyone to the left of Stalin. Not good solution but about what you could expect when a criminal Communist like Stalin takes over a nation.
Hillary can rant about the American Racists. Sexists, Islamist, Homophobes all she wants.
She can also avoid the press with her Scandals again as the press simply will Fawn all over her again.
LOL!!!!!!!
Lets see, pinko commies on 1 hand, and pinko commies who want to use violence on the other.
Headline: Stalinists attempt to prevent Trotskyite takeover of party
Clinton and Obama are centrists?
RATFIGHT!
PLEASE PASS THE POPCORN!
What happened to that economic miracle rolled out by Chuck Schumer: A Better Deal? I know! Lost in Antifa violence.
Wait, you mean the same Hillary and company that publicly said that people ought to RESIST and thereby helped fuel the blinding rage of the American Trotskies?
It's Democrat...
