The Dems’ Left Turn on Their Establishment
LOL... The far left extremists are turning on moderates.

The old guard’s response has been barely articulate. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer posed with an avocado and a Corona at a press conference against Trump’s threatened tariffs on Mexico. Sen Elizabeth Warren regularly attacks any Trump administration proposal. Democratic senators later pulled an all-nighter protesting Russell Vought’s nomination as director of the Office of Management and Budget. With fewer procedural tools at their disposal, the efforts of House Democrats have been even less effective: protests outside USAID, Treasury, and the Department of Labor.
The Democrats’ establishment was already discredited in progressives’ eyes. The old guard forced Joe Biden down their throats as an electable compromise back in 2020 – even though the liberal base much preferred Bernie Sanders. They then kept Biden under wraps to keep him in office once he won. Their lawfare strategy against Trump didn’t work. They stayed with Biden too long, then executed an awkward and public push to remove him. Next, they preempted an open nomination process by coronating Kamala Harris.
