Socialism is back, and it's taking over the Democratic Party
Washington Examiner ^ | 07/05/2018 | Douglas McKinnon

With the shock victory of 28-year-old socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez over House Democratic Caucus Chairman Joe Crowley — an entrenched liberal who hoped to replace House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., as party leader or even as House speaker some day — Democrats have officially lost control of their own party.

The politically-correct pampering of millennials — everyone gets a trophy, strikes can never be called, laughable “micro-aggressions” are a real thing and must be acknowledged and punished — is finally making itself felt in the political arena, and it's officially driving the Democratic Party to Crazytown.

Like 28-year-old entrenched-liberal-giant-killer Ocasio-Cortez, there are now millions of spoiled, ignorant, "It is all-about-me” Millennial brats out there who not only embraced the socialist battle cry of “Free is for me,” but will now work to crush anyone standing in the way of that ultimately suicidal policy.

With the staggering primary victory of Ocasio-Cortez over party boss Crowley, the winning electoral template for the socialist-left has now been stamped, certified, and will soon be put into action across the country.

Ocasio-Cortez won by preaching free education for all, universal healthcare, the abolition of immigration enforcement, open borders, the end of capitalism, the redistribution of all wealth, the eradication of “hierarchal systems,” liberal drug policies, and forcing business owners to give control of their companies to the “workers.”

It must be stressed that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a proud member of the Democratic Socialists of America, the same group that recently surrounded Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen Nielsen in a restaurant and forced her — and her security detail — to flee.

This would be the exact same Democratic Socialists of America, which believes the far-left is not nearly radical enough in its anarchistic behavior.

I think within 10 to 15 years, America will be a Socialist majority.

Probably is already, they just haven't found their way to the polling booths yet.
