One of the top honchos with the Democratic Socialist of America struggled to explain what “taxing the rich” meant and appeared clueless about the Clinton era landmark Israeli Palestinian peace effort, during an embarrassing radio interview with The New Yorker Friday.
Megan Romer, one of the two national co-chairs of the organization, seemed bewildered by a question from the magazine’s editor David Remnick about one of the DSA’s signature positions.
“Well, what does ‘taxing the hell out of them’ mean?’” Remnick asked on the episode of The New Yorker Radio Hour titled “How Socialist Is the DSA? Megan Romer Explains“.
“Uh, yeah, you know, again, I don’t have like a solid…” Romer awkwardly chuckled.
“But shouldn’t you?” Remnick pressed. “If you’re the co-chair of the DSA, shouldn’t you be more specific than ‘taxing the hell’ out of something? What exactly do you mean?”
“Um, that’s a good question,” Romer said, her eyes widened in shock that someone would challenge her beyond the catchy slogan that was often used by Mayor Mamdani during his campaign.
“So again, it’s democracy, right?” she continued. “And we have to look at what we have to spend and what we need. We don’t want to depend on the existence of millionaires because that means people are still getting exploited.”
Social media had a field day with the clip, which quickly went viral.
“When you realize you took $60,000 out in student loans and can’t answer a single friendly polite question,” slammed media commentator Stephen L. Miller on X.

Tax the DSA and its adherents to the Poor House.
This privlidged woman is stupid and easily malleable. George Orwell understood that it was always the young women who were the most avid, enthusiatic supporters and believers of totalitarian, oppressive nonsense. Doubt many young people read “1984” or “Animal Farm” these days.
“Don’t want to rely on existence of millionaires”. Well, those are the people who create the most jobs so unless you are going to live in your parent’s basement as an adult you made want to cozy up to a few millionaires. These DSA idiots are insane and anyone who votes for them needs to be institutionalized.
If they do, they think it is an instruction manual, not a cautionary tale.
The young today would be much happier reading “Brave New World” by Aldous Huxley...
People are conceived in artificial wombs, removing gender from the equation, born in predetermined casts and then everyone is pacified by recreational pharmaceuticals.
Come to think of it, Brave New World is closer to reality than most people realize.
Up next: Explaining what “shooting the rich” means.
It’s all in the commie playbook.
.
Perfect.
Of course it is a good question, Romer. That is why you were asked. The men keep her around for diddling purposes.
Socialism and Communism are ALL ABOUT CONTROLLING US!!! They will say WHO is to get Health Care, Food, Housing, etc........RUN!!
"The men keep her around for diddling purposes." Bleagh..
btt
A solid cement head? Yes you do! Fat, ugly, and stupid are no way to go through life, girl !
They only have trouble explaining when they cant tell thectruth.
These financially and economically illiterate socialists cannot even manage their own personal finances, yet they want to form an all-powerful government that has full control of everything and is fully staffed by people like them. What could go wrong?
“So again, it’s democracy, right?”
The retards still believe that America is a democracy and not a constitutional republic. It’s even in the Pledge of Allegiance. (Do they even know the Pledge?)
Meanwhile the DSA is funded by Soros and other billionaires
Democrats are bankrupt and are having to mortgage their headquarters for this election cycle, Yet they claim they can fix the economy for the middle class, go figure…why aren’t Republicans running ads about the cognitive dissonance in the Democrats claim and their reality.
