Tlaib, Concerned that their Party's shift toward socialism might not appeal to normal Americans, ten members of the US House of Representatives and three candidates aspiring to win seats in the House have signed a "Promise to America Pledge." The Pledge includes a call for "an economy that rewards hard work, lowers costs, and expands opportunity, secure borders, orderly immigration, safe communities, competent government, free speech, and pride in America."
Democratic socialist firebrand Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez (D-NY) scoffed at the pledge, calling it "a surrender to the MAGA Republican agenda. Real Democrats want an economy that guarantees a living income for all--including those unable or unwilling to work, the increased taxes needed to fund a compulsory sharing of the nation's wealth, open borders, and reparations to the victims of America's oppressive society."
Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich) said "it's time for Democrats to stop trying to offer watered-down capitalism as the alternative we offer in our search for votes. Let's honestly admit that capitalism is an evil system. As Marx wrote many years ago, capitalism has usefully expanded the wealth available to us. Now is the time for us to improve the distribution of that wealth by having the government seize it and divide it more equitably."
Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-NY), co-author of the Pledge, called for "moderation. History has amply demonstrated that socialism leads to poverty and tyranny wherever it has been implemented. The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics tried to have the government direct everything, but it couldn't keep up with the wealth-creation achieved by capitalism because it stifled individual initiative. Rather than allowing its citizens the liberty to pursue happiness it regimented them and sent dissenters to concentration camps."
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani thanked "Suozzi for outing himself and his fellow traitors to the Democratic Party. We will primary them whenever and wherever we can. If we are unsuccessful in preventing their election we will expel them from Congress and fill those seats with genuine democratic socialists. America has tried individualism for 250 years. It's time to give collectivism a chance to create the paradise that Marx predicted it would achieve if were granted the unlimited power of the dictatorship of the proletariat."
In related news, a Center Square Voters' Voice Poll found that 86% of registered US voters support America's founding principles, among which the poll listed "individual rights such as life, liberty, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, the right to bear arms, equal treatment under the law, and government by the consent of the people." The poll found significant support for these principles with 89% of Republicans, 85% of Democrats, and 79% of Independents agreeing with them. However, only 31% of voters believe the founding values are being practiced well today.

Sitting on the sidelines is not rejecting.
Then how did Platner get nominated? Are the majority of democrats in Maine socialist crazies? Perhaps primary elections are where the crazies show up. Our ‘crazies’ dumped Masse and Cornyn but ours don’t rape.
Maybe Hillary invented a reject button for them to use. It matches her reset button. (Hint: It doesn’t work)
But they won’t lift a finger to stop it.
Moderate DemocRATs?
There are moderate DemocRATs?
Bwahahahahaha.
I’m currently watching a replay of the the democrat debate between al Sayed and Stevens. He looks like another smooth talker/quick thinker while she’s flailing on defense with weak facts. He can lie and keep talking as there are too few interruptions calling out the bs. Let’s hope the Michigan voters are not too left wing but he’s long and lean and she looks like a fire plug.
She talks and he has a smirk on his face. He’s a meaner Obama and I’m sure he wants to be POTUS some day.
They’ll vote for any pos walking the street. Mandami, FJB, Obunghole you name it!
There are no longer any “moderate” democrats...
Extinct since Truman, the last of the good ones...
I think the Bithright Citizenship is a reverse DOBBS for us. The base is getting fired up to vote.
