MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. — Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin says President Trump is a "dictator-in-chief" whose agenda is "fascism dressed in a red tie" and his party must fight back against his policies.

"Now look, folks, I'm sick and tired of this Democratic party bringing a pencil to a knife fight," Martin said. "We cannot be the only party that plays by the rules anymore. We've got to stand up and fight. We're not going to have a hand tied behind our back anymore."

Speaking during the first session of the DNC's summer meeting in Minneapolis on Monday, Martin said the Democratic Party has to stop trying to win arguments over policy and politics and do more to win future elections.

They constantly use violent rhetoric. Who wants that? About 20% of the people.

Who is he kidding? The Democrat Party has used it’s street goon proxies to terrorize American voters for years.

2020 was a prime example.

“We cannot be the only party that plays by the rules anymore.”

The only question is, does the idiot really believe that BS?

ironic since the most facist thing I ever personally experienced in my life was liberals over reaction to covid!

forcing businesses to close, forcing people to take an experimental vaccine, and forcing people to wear masks that did NOTHING!

“””” Committee Chair Ken Martin says President Trump is a “dictator-in-chief” whose agenda is “fascism dressed in a red tie””””

He needs to watch msnbc. The correct moniker for what President Trump is doing is authoritarianism.

far-left wing-nut hive.

They say men are women and vice versa, boys are girls and vice versa. Lawfare. Gerrymandering heavily for decades - i.e. Illinois - just look at how those districts are drawn - one district literally wrapped around another one. Taking obstruction to unprecedented new levels every day. Could go on and on. It is the Republicans who have tried to preserve decorum - to our ultimate detriment because their side does not even try.

Martin will be fired soon. He looks like a weeny, is awful on TV and can’t raise money. I bet the Dems bring back bruiser Brazile.
