DAVID MARCUS: Socialism and El-Sayed run into harsh reality in blue-collar Michigan
Fox News ^ | 7/19/26 | David Marcus

Posted on 07/19/2026 1:00:24 PM PDT by Libloather

By now, we have all seen the evidence that the socialist uprising happening in the Democratic Party is fueled mainly by highly educated White voters, and on Saturday, I saw even more evidence of it at a Detroit rally for Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed. It was whiter than a toothpaste ad.

Scanning the hundred or so people in line for the event that featured Marxist superstars Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., I saw fewer Black people than you could find at Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse’s restricted beach club in Rhode Island.

Outside of the Opera House where the event was taking place, I met Chris, selling socialist merch. Like me, he had arrived that morning, redheaded, ruddy and a bit sunburned from his recent swing through Texas supporting the supposedly non-socialist Senate candidate James Talarico.

A bit surprised that the Democratic Socialists of America were stumping for Talarico, I asked him whether Texas voters were put off by it.

"I’m not supposed to do interviews, but yeah, it’s different for sure depending on where we go," he said.

A moment later, I had a conversation with the spokesperson for Don Offord, the progressive running for the Democratic nomination in Michigan’s 11th Congressional District. One of the animating elements of this socialist insurgency became crystal clear, as he couldn't stop talking about AIPAC.

"Don doesn’t take any money from AIPAC (the pro-Israel lobbying group)," Mark said proudly. I asked him if this could be a problem, not just with Jewish voters, but with moderate Democrats who support the Jewish state. A kind of shock fell over him, as if he’d never considered this, and he just refused to answer.

Tim, from Ann Arbor was there, not as a fan of the socialists but as a concerned citizen...

Uprising. Upheaval. Disarray. Could eventually result in gunplay. A few more months of it will do.

selling socialist merch

?????????????????????

Isn't that against the socialist religion?

In the Brave New World of Socialism, he would be called names like "hoarder" "capitalist"

In the Brave New World of Socialism, isn't all of his merchandise "the People's Merchandise?"

Oxymoron. No highly educated person would voluntarily accept Socialism. History is strewn with the wreckage of socialism from New Harmony and Walden, to modern-day Cuba and Venezuela. If they call those countries a success, they should move there and enjoy the fruits of everyone's labor. Oh...and take Mamdani with you.

Useful idiots are the core enablers of those who push communism for power and wealth. Marx had them. Stalin and Lenin. It's a history lesson never learned.

Michigan is home to an estimated 240,000 to 250,000 Muslims, making up approximately 2.4% of the state’s total population. This gives Michigan one of the highest concentrations of Muslims in the United States.

Dots getting connected??.

The UAW is shilling for El’Sayed, but the members will ignore the endorsement. My husband calls their endorsements the who-not-to-vote-fot-lists. We get the nonsense in the mail even after his retirement
