Again. And I think you nailed it. They are looking to find Platner wannabes, cookie cutters, rather than the Democratic establishment. The moderate stepping in and saying the leftward drift is going to take us nowhere. Good. The moderates in the party are stepping back because they're scared of the socialist wing. But this socialist wing is basically, as I say, they're cookie cutters, they're boring people. They're very boring. Most of them have never had jobs. They repeat Marxist and socialist clichés. They align themselves with racist Middle East Nazi movements. They sell the voters a con job because they don't really have much to do. They believe in this notion that rather than being a building society, we should be a taking society. We should have the takers that take from the people that build. They don't have a vision for the future. And again, the opportunity here was for the Democratic leadership to step in and say, "This socialist drift is a bad drift for the Democratic Party," but they're scared. And they'll find out what we found out during the French Revolution, the Bolshevik Revolution, the Russian Revolution: the Jacobins and the French Revolution, the Bolsheviks and the Russian Revolution, will purge the moderates. So this is a party that is going increasingly socialist, Marxist.
- I'm glad you mentioned the fact that they do appear to be afraid of the left wing of their very own party. Mahek, what do you make of that, and what gives here? I think there are a lot of people who have been drawing this sort of parallel and saying, "Well, you think about the Tea Party. I don't think Republicans en masse rushed to go even harder." Right? But it seems like, at least in this circumstance, the Democrats are pushing even farther to the left, certainly in the state of Maine. What do you make of that, Kevin?
- They are.
- Fear does not win elections. You have to actually speak to the voting base. And this is where Susan Collins has won five terms because she is an extreme. She speaks to moderates and independents, where Democrats are failing and these socialists are failing is they're failing to realize that a third of Maine voters, roughly, are independents...

If the Left was really smart they’d quit siding with the Islamists and look at what happened to the Iranian Leftists once the Mullahs consolidated their power. The Quran is against any alliance with infidels except in the furtherance of Islamic goals -a world where Islam is the only religion allowed.
Hopefully, their fanaticism will boost GOP ...
Look at their heroes. Marx, Obama and Bernie never had jobs. They were professional parasites.
And it’s almost a certainty that none of them have owned a business.
Correct
“Most of them have never had jobs. They repeat Marxist and socialist clichés.”

Where the DSA has been effective is running in Democrat districts that have low voter turnout for primaries and getting out their vote, and where a Republican — if there is one running — has no chance at all in the election. The DSA primary winners in NYC and Colorado are going to Congress and will stay there unless Democrats vote them out. And, yes, they are all people of little or no accomplishment that commends them to become one of 535 people who make big decisions for the rest of us. Look at the clown from Florida, Maxwell Frost. He was elected at age 25 in 2022. He has never had a job except as an “organizer” or campaign worker. He attended an upgraded community college but never finished. He got 59% of the vote in 2022, and 61% in 2024. Does anyone expect he’ll be going away soon?
Then comes Arbeit macht frei

These people get elected because people are too lazy to get off their asses and vote. All it takes is a small dedicated minority. History tells us that and recent elections show us that.
"Karl Marx coined the phrase “Everyone according to his abilities, each according to his needs” in his Published in 1875 Paper “Critique of the Gotha Program” as the guiding principle of the Higher phase of communist society.
This dictation describes a state of material abundance in which labour has no longer become a mere means of life, but a first need for life. It is in contrast to socialist Performance Principle (“anyone according to its performance”), which is considered a transitional phase and still allows inequalities due to different contributions to work.
The principle requires that the Productive forces fully developed and the alienation of labour and the anti-thetic division of labour have been overcome. Only then can the “tight civil legal horizon” be exceeded, so that access to goods and services is free of performance-related restrictions.

Biden. Platner. Probably others… Dems run these “candidates” that implode during the campaign and withdraw at the possible last minute to throw in a party pick that their voters didn’t choose to run in the General.
Che’ Guevara’s Summer Camp Kids.
This is more like the Khamir Rouge who murdered anyone who disagreed with them.
Good cop. Bad Cop.
They did this in 2020 with Sanders and Biden.
It’s a template.
Yes, here’s hoping.
True.
And mostly stupid females
Look at the crowds
