Today’s Democratic Party is unrecognizable. It has rejected everything that made America great in the world
I guess the left is tiring of the US being great? And perhaps that is why Trump wants to make America great again.
As RFK Jr pointed out in his speech announcing he was suspending his campaign, the national Democratic Party of the 1960s were perceived as being "champions of the Constitution and civil rights." Kennedy said:
"The Democrats stood against authoritarianism, against censorship, against colonialism, against imperialism, and against unjust wars. We were the party of labor, of the working class."
However, today’s Democratic Party is unrecognizable. It has rejected everything that made America great in the world. It has turned against the competitive election of candidates who compete and debate each other for its presidential nomination. Instead, it now installs hand-picked candidates that the media anoints.
While it decries racism, sexism, homophobia, Islamophobia, and other great evils, the Democratic Party has a pattern of using members of identity groups to help it advance its own goals, even though those goals are often against the best interests of the American people, including members of the identity groups it purports to represent.
Democrats today are the party of elitism, wealth, big money, big pharma, and judicial activism that uses lawfare to punish its political opponents, even if this means passing laws to invent crimes that were not recognized as crimes until the party perceives an interest in taking down an opponent.
According to Kennedy, what alarms him most is the Party’s, "resort to censorship, media control, and weaponization of federal agencies. When a U.S. president colludes with, or outright coerces, media companies to censor political speech, it’s an attack on our most sacred right of free expression. And that’s the very right upon which all of our other constitutional rights rest."
