Good question. Poor f'ers lost their minds. Many of them pine for the days of the Soviet Union. Not sure they will ever get them back.

While some elements of the DSA agenda—such as Medicare for all and higher taxes on corporations and wealthy individuals—enjoy majority support, most don’t. The organization’s platform advocates government ownership of much of the economy, including food, education, energy, medicine and transportation. Americans wouldn’t have landlords or mortgages because “comfortable housing is a human right.”

The DSA platform also includes the following: “Demilitarize police departments, disempower police unions, and redirect funding to public services as steps towards fully abolishing the police and prison system”; “Defund the Department of War . . . End all foreign wars and close overseas military bases”; “Legalize migration, grant amnesty for all immigrants regardless of status, provide a path to citizenship for all permanent residents, and end visa caps and quotas”; “Replace the President and Supreme Court with an executive and judiciary chosen by and subordinate to Congress”; “Abolish the Senate.”

If voters elect DSA candidates, then that's proof of the popularity of some of these policies in those districts.
It would be a tiny percentage of total Dems in office
Trump's moves for govt ownership of private industry give WSJ editorial staff same angst?
He has put radical policies into reality ..who is the bigger threat to capitalism.?..crony capitalism that has enriched trump by 2.2 billion in 2025 and his sons/ cronies with billions more in rigged deals or a few DSA candidates who will have minimal influence?

Congress passed a law in 2021 to force shell companies to report ownership after Treasury dept determined more than 2 trillion had been laundered by cartels and gangsters....trump vetoed it but Congress voted to override veto.

Bessent just announced that they are now going to ignore the law and let dark money flourish again....trump loves shell games with shell companies..is that a radical move by trump?

I feel like a broken record at this point but it is going to be 1970s SNL level comedy watching a bunch of middle aged limp wristed white dudes explain how "im a republican but I just had to vote for the out and out socialist because this other guy is too close to a guy who supposedly grabbed a ***** 30 years ago".

No, you are shill who will do whatever CNN et all tell you.

Many lols.

The DSA is radical for my tastes but I found it funny how you framed that comparison. Like that's the only negative thing about Trump that people are weighing when deciding not to vote for him/those he endorses.

Have you thought about how you'll explain your Trump support to your wife's daughter in 20 years?

"Sorry honey I know the news says he was found guilty of sexual assault where he penetrated her against her will. But that was by a jury of Libs in New York. And I know it's been reported he was best friends with Jeffrey Epstein. But this Catturd account told me that's not the reason why he covered up those files."

My wife voted for Trump.

My daughter will get to play athletics against other females due to it.

My children will have a chance at scholoships due to performance not how much DEI they bring( though they are by definition brown)

When my daughter ask about about a crotch grab Ill reminder her of two things, anyone can make an accusation, people that get raped have a tendency to remember when it happened.
