Democratic party at a crossroads

2 min read

Democrats should now be called "socialist democrats." Many democrats are self avowed socialists, support self avowed socialist candidates, elect and appoint state and local socialist officials and give socialist candidates money from the Democrat party's coffers. Just in case you are not sure, Bernie Sanders, AOC, Mandami, Tlaib, Casar, Cori Bush, Saval and hundreds of others on school boards, state legislatures, mayors, law enforcement officials, etc., all self avowed socialists.

There are likely thousands of other politicians who support socialist policies/agendas but are afraid to self identify, either because of political preservation or fear. These people are tumors, "sheep in wolf's clothing," whose rhetoric has created a lethal cancer metastasizing throughout America.

Their unapologetic contempt for law enforcement, the judicial system, national security, antisemitism and our Constitution, is a concerted effort to eliminate America's core values and the fabric that binds them.

Don't get sucked in and believe there is such a thing as a "democratic socialist," it doesn't exist. It is, however, the absolute definition of an oxymoron.

If this cancer is not immediately excised by the Democrat party, the leadership, and "normal Fetterman Democrats," America will fall into a Stage 4 abyss and may never recover. Wake up Democrats and retake your party from these anti-Americans. Excise this cancer now.

Call your Democratic representatives and demand they excise these socialist candidates and bring the Democrat party back to normalcy. Don't place your lust for power before what is right for America and fellow Americans.
