No, you can't make this shit up.

Could ‘Blue MAGA’ revitalize the Democratic Party?​

As conversations about President Joe Biden’s decline during his years as president continue, and as Democrats continue to struggle with public approval, lawmakers on the left are looking for ways to reconnect with American voters.

Some Democrats view this time, in the middle of the Trump era, as an opportunity to revamp their party — especially as they struggle to find a new leader.

One of those Democrats is Rep. Ro Khanna, a California Democrat whose district includes much of Silicon Valley, but who wants his party to take a more populist route.



He’s coined a new phrase to describe the voters he hopes to bring back to the Democratic Party, the working and middle class voters who fled the party to vote for President Donald Trump — “Blue MAGA.”

Khanna says Biden shouldn’t have run another term

Khanna, a California Democrat appeared on Sunday on ABC News’ “This Week,” with a tough message.

“The Democratic Party needs to be honest,” he said.

“In light of what has come out, it is painfully obvious President (Joe) Biden should not have run,” Khanna said.

The California representative argued his party gave “too much deference to party leaders, to the old guard, to the advisers” instead of being “more independent.”

Khanna thinks he has an answer to the Democrats’ identity problem can help the party rebuild.

For the longest time, he called his vision “progressive capitalism.” Khanna now phrases it as “economic patriotism,” or jokingly “
Blue MAGA.”
