The center is Republican. The far right which is running the country needs to come back to the middle. Not the democrats.
Democrat Communists - Call Them What They Are - Bill Maher, Van Jones, AND Ted Cruz Agree
- Thread starter fatpiggy
- Start date
Well then how about Ted Cruz?
Well if Ted says it we know it’s a lie. That solidifies my position.
All you have to do is look up the DSA platform
The Democratic Socialists of America Just Adopted a Radical New Platform
No I’m right. Trump is much closer to a communist- see his forcing companies to give a piece to his government- than Democrats are. You’ll just dismiss that fact too.
Incorrect. Trump negotiated a small stake purchase of shares in certain companies and those investments have increased in value. No operational control by the government.
Trump did in fact add just under $8 trillion to the debt. You keep confusing deficit with debt by the way. The reasons for the spending don't change the fact that it happened during Trump's term. It's public record.
Inflation was around 2.9% before the pandemic hit and then went to near 0 during the supply chain crunch. The rebound from that was hard and it rose rapidly starting in 2020. That 1.4% inflation rate you referenced at the start of Biden's term was up from near 0% in a short period of time and kept climbing. It peaked in 2022 (along with gas prices) and then fell steadily after that. Steady recovery after the crisis. Biden was completely blamed for the 2021-2022 inflation and MAGAs ignore 2023 and 2024.
Unemployment hit 3.4% under Biden in 2023. Lowest in 70ish years so you are correct that it's not the all-time record. Just in our lifetime. The overall point to all of this is that all of these metrics point to a strong economy vs the state of the economy that Biden inherited.
Low unemployment, record high stock markets, low inflation rate, $3 gas which is not great but better than right now.
The debt has grown by $3.1 trillion so far in Trump's second term. What's the forecast for that at the halfway point?
"I think you'd be better served by looking at things objectively instead of limiting yourself to democrats = good and republicans = bad."
Look in the mirror.
Yiikes that sounds terrifying!! Marxists and islamists?
Better vote for more wars and high prices then.
Oil being at $90 a barrel is not a good thing for republicans. I will admit as much.
Trump needs to keep increasing pressure on Iran until they capitulate.
Why Are Dems Dodging Questions About The DSA’s Radical Platform?
Because it is their platform.
https://issuesinsights.com/2026/07/...ng-questions-about-the-dsas-radical-platform/
ack in June, we called on the mainstream media to pressure Democrats into answering questions about the increasingly radical Democratic Socialists of America platform.
“With the rapid takeover of their party by the Democratic Socialists of America underway,” we wrote, “it’s time for every Democrat to answer for what the DSA believes in.” (See: “10 Questions Every Democrat Must Now Be Made To Answer.”)
We’re glad that one news network, at least, has taken us up on our advice.
Fox News lately has been prodding prominent Democrats to answer whether they agree with planks in the DSA’s latest platform, which includes proposals such as defunding the War Department, nationalizing corporations, and abolishing the presidency, the Senate, and the Supreme Court.
It’s been almost comical to watch them evade the Fox reporters, or mumble that they aren’t members of the DSA, or regurgitate word salads.
Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., said when asked about the new agenda. “I haven’t read the proposal.” That’s despite his having endorsed several DSA candidates.
Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., refused to even acknowledge the presence of the reporter.
California Rep. Pete Aguilar said, “I’m not a member of the DSA, so I can’t comment on any documents that they put out.”
Liz Warren Finds Her Nazi Red Line
LOL... A democrat was honoring her Nazi grandfather on Veterans Day.

Van Jones says phone ‘blowing up’ after saying democratic socialists ‘going too far’
Great news.
https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/5980669-van-jones-democratic-socialists-criticism-calls/
Liberal pundit Van Jones said Monday that his phone has been “blowing up” with praise from lawmakers and government officials from both parties after he took a swing at democratic socialists online.
In a post on the social platform X Saturday, Jones said that “some people in groups like the [Democratic Socialists of America (DSA)] are pushing an agenda FAR outside” left-wing positions like Medicare for All and criminal justice reform.
“Supporting Hamas is not progressive. ‘No police, no prisons, no borders’ is not progressive. Celebrating the murder of Israeli civilians is not progressive. These ideas are REGRESSIVE,” Jones added in his Saturday post.
During an appearance on CNN’s “OutFront” on Monday, Jones told host Erin Burnett that “this phone has been blowing up all day, governors from both parties, senators from both parties, Democrats in the House calling, thanking me for saying what everybody’s been saying behind the scenes, which is that this stuff is going too far.
“I am a progressive Democrat. You want to talk about prison reform? I’ve done it as well as anybody, Republican, Democrats, in the South, with [President] Trump, I’ve done prison reform. I never said, ‘Have no prisons,’” he added. “Where are you going to put the Klan? I’ve done police reform. I never said, ‘No police.’ Where are you going to put the pedophiles? Who’s going to grab the pedophiles?”
In the last year, many democratic socialist and progressive candidates have run insurgent campaigns against establishment figures in primaries, notching wins and stepping into the American political spotlight along the way.
