Holy shit. This guy might be a common sense democrat. Didn't think there was one.
I hope the guy loses. We don't need the democratic party coming to its senses.

Wall Street banker Marty Dolan launched a primary challenge against Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), arguing New Yorkers will have the final say on the “radical” policies she supports in the June 25 primary.
"We are all for the 'progress' implied by the word Progressive. However, within the Progressive movement, there are Radicals whose influence on the Democratic Party is overweight," he said on his campaign website.
"The impact in NYC is obvious: bail reform a disaster, the National Guard in the subway, toothpaste locked up in drugstores but criminals running free, scarce resources directed to (non-sanctuary) immigrants coming from all over the world," he continued.
"These difficulties must be addressed in the context of a runaway $34 trillion federal debt and NYC's 14% marginal tax rate," Dolan added. "Regional tax inequality is far more exaggerated in the USA than in any other country. Losing 500,000 taxpayers is unsustainable: fixing this must be our overwhelming priority."
