Progressives sharpening knives for Dem ‘bloodbath’ if Biden loses
New York Post ^ | October 31, 2020 | Jon Levine

Progressives, socialists and Bernie Bros are gearing up for war should Joe Biden fall short of his quest to unseat President Trump in Tuesday’s election.

“You would see a complete repudiation of the Democratic establishment as we know it,” said Jabari Brisport, 33, a Democratic Socialist-backed candidate for state Senate expected to easily win a Brooklyn seat next week. “The Democratic establishment is not working for everyday people.”

Brisport said a Biden loss would completely discredit the moderate wing of the party, paving the way for more successful insurgents like himself.

“It’s going to be the mirror image of what happened to the Republican party in the Obama years. You had the tea party, just like progressive insurgents, and then when Obama won a second term the Republican party went haywire on the inside and ate its own,” he said.

Unlike the tea party, a progressive revolution would be “a force for good,” said the true-believer Brisport.

One senior official at a Democratic Political Action Committee was blunter.

“If Biden loses it’s going to be a f–king bloodbath. There’s no other way to put it,” he said. “Heads will roll. It’s going to be ugly.”

Progressives hope that any internal strife would also strengthen the hand of some of their brightest congressional stars, like Reps. Pramila Jayapal and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

Sen. Chuck Schumer is up for re-election in 2022 and there have long been whispers that Ocasio-Cortez may seek to oust him in a primary. Schumer, a New York moderate with close Wall Street ties, is the kind of pol that makes AOC’s lefty base salivate.

“Because of how badly they did with the Impeachment Hoax, AOC will primary Cryin’ Chuck Schumer, and win,” Trump predicted in February.

AOC herself has been distinctly coy

So. The perceived solution to the woes that beset the Democratic Party will be to move even FURTHER left?

They never learn.

It’s weird that he/she thinks he/she is working for everyday people.

I’ll rather enjoy watching the Mensheviks battle the Bolsheviks for control of that sinking ship.

Go ahead fools. Establish the clear pattern that your only reaction to not getting your way is violence. I’m sure that will convince mushy middle. Go ahead. Become yet another fringe party.

The Left loves their euphemisms.

Progressive, liberal, Socialist, Democrat, Democrat-socialist. They are Aall the same thing: COMMUNISTS. Just your plain old lying, thieving, power-mad COMMUNISTS.

I have been saying it for a while: The biggest winner on Tuesday is AOC.

If Biden loses, she will rise from the ashes. If Biden wins, she is running for VP next time.

She can’t lose.

They’re going to do that even if Biden wins. He’ll be gone in six months.

Oh man, Orville Redenbacher is going to be RICH with all the popcorn Conservatives and Republicans will enjoy watching them self-immolate.

I was starting to think nothing could be more entertaining than Election Night 2016 (with the tears and all) but this could be better and a lot less slow-motion.

Bah. Cenk Uygur promised us a bloodbath last time. What we got was a geriatric cabal now stumbling its way through a grotesquely inept election. Where’s the bloodbath? I WANT MY BLOODBATH AND I WANT IT NOW!!

I would think it would be the other way around and Sanders sent to an insane asylum with his entourage AOC and Omar. No one said the left had walking around sense. Also tells me they know the hammer is about to fall on BiteMe.
