Former White House Chief of Staff and former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel told the hosts of MS NOW's "Morning Joe" on Monday that the Democratic Party is "not open" to a takeover by self-identifying socialist candidates.
"There is a pragmatic and a progressive wing of the party," Emanuel said. "We both believe that the system is rigged against families that live paycheck-to-paycheck and try to make ends meet and who work hard, trying to raise their kids to know right from wrong and do the hard work. That's where the party's soul is."
"Some believe in Medicare For All," he continued. "I believe in early retirees buying into Medicare. That's a healthy debate we should have and then present a plan to the country on how to return health care to being a peace of mind, not the nightmare that it is today."
The career politician and former Illinois congressman was asked how he feels about the growing divide within the Democratic Party between the party's traditional Democrats and some of its rising-star Democratic Socialist candidates, including New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Michigan Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed. Emanuel, in response, said the policies of the latter do not perform well in mainstream elections.
"Four weeks ago, the Democratic Socialists had a party convention in Chicago," he noted. "They're a separate party. They're not a caucus or a wing of the [Democratic Party]. They're a separate party. We're not open to being taken over. You think people want defunding the police, open borders, opening up the prison doors? I'll see you in November. If you think people are going to buy this Purina dog chow, great."

Democratic Socialist candidates, including New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Michigan Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed, and others, say otherwise.
Has anyone mentioned this to the socialists currently taking over the Democrat Party?
Basically all Democrats are socialists. So when they (and we) are talking about a socialist takeover of the DNC, we’re really talking about the nazi-communists and the communist-jihadis. The Democrats have catered to them over the years because that’s where the money and energy are.
They don’t actually have a moral problem with the blue-haired fascists and the Hamas activists. They just have to appear to disapprove when they’re in a tight race and the Repubs are using it against them.
Yeah. The Poles said the same thing about the Nazis and the Soviets.
“No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no...”, he explained
Democrats numbers must be a lot lower then stated to drag out
Rahm Emanuel Joe must be in the makeup room for the next one to appear.
The Democrat party is the nutrient-rich dung heap that fertilized the DSA.
No Democrat Party, no DSA.
