And here I speak of the growing partisan fracture within both the Democrat hierarchy and within the party faithful itself, along with their opposing visions for the party's future. And said fracture has now turned into a no longer being veiled fight between what are Democrat centrists...“Blue Dog” or “moderates” if you will...and the now growing in number so-called “Democratic Socialists,” as in those trying to take over and control the party, and bring it even more to the socialist far left than it is already.
But let's be honest here in the fact that the words “Democratic Socialist,” while being somewhat new to the political discourse, is actually just the newest reincarnation of Barack Obama's infamous “fundamental transformation of America” jargon and agenda. Remember, these “Democratic Socialists”...New York City's disgrace of a mayor, Zohran Mamdani, proudly bills himself as one...want nothing more than to now see our beloved America being brought down to what they hope, and what Obama had hoped, would be her blood stained knees.
And if “capitalism” cannot be fully replaced, the “Democratic Socialists” hope that it can at least be politically manipulated enough to lean to the left so that it becomes a partnership of sorts...a partnership based more upon what the “Democrat Socialists” consider to be “societal needs” than it is on rightfully being “profit driven.” But, in my opinion, I believe what the “Democrat Socialists” really want to see happen is that what starts out as being classic “interventionist” economic reform...as in the “share the wealth” philosophy that I already view as being “socialism light”... eventually morphs into “socialism” in its purist form, and then into “communism” itself where the government has full control of each and every aspect of one's life.
And it was at this point that we saw both mainstream liberals and overtly far-left progressives doubling down on their belief that the government should and must play an active and domineering role in regulating both the sum of our nation's economy, its foreign affairs, as well as having to tend to the welfare of all our citizens...and here might I add that in this case “Democratic Socialists” believe said welfare extends to“illegals” as well.
Simply, “Big Brother is watching you”...albeit in a slightly different guise...does seem to be the moniker of these so-called “Democratic Socialist” sorts.
And to complicate the scenario even more so is the fact that these candidates are being helped in their endeavors courtesy of big money donors...big money donors like the DSA (“Democratic Socialists of America”), the “American Priorities Super PAC,” and of course the infamous avowed America-hating “George Soros” courtesy of his “Open Society Foundations,” just to name a few. And with the dollars continuing to grow as “Democratic Socialists” continue to win more and more primary elections, we are indeed bearing witness to Barack Obama's original “transformation of America” objectives getting a new and now expanding lease on life...which is both sad and angering at the same time.
For example, what we refer to as today's Democrat party, continues to strive for larger, more invasive government interference, interference which not only inserts itself into ones personal whelm, but continues to focus on what they deem to be “wealth inequality“ (as in we'll take from the rich and give their hard earned wealth to the poor without the poor having to lift a finger to work for it). On the other hand, the Republican party always strives for smaller government interference while at the same time championing free-market capitalism and enterprise, plus focusing on individual liberties and responsibilities minus all the needless Democrat wanted regulations involved in the actual running of the government.
Simply, the line between Democrats and Republicans is in actuality an invisible line between tangible logic, common sense, and what is questionable societal norms, and governmental transformation.
And while “Socialists” do strive for that as well, the main difference between today's “Democratic Socialists” and those politically aligned with the DSA is two-fold. First, “Democratic Socialists” want said realignment to happen via the voting booth...while true “Socialists” always see the act of revolution as an option more times than not. And second, the former view themselves as being somewhat altruistic in that they favor “collective governmental management” if it's what they deem to be in the public interest; while the later want the government to actually takeover the ownership of all key industries and infrastructure “on behalf of the people”...communism-lite if you will.
And how exactly should we Republicans do that? The answer is not as complicated as many would like to think, because sometimes the simplest, easiest, and most readily available solution turns out to be the best solution of all.
In this case we should continue to play up the obvious political differences not only within the different factions of the Democrat party itself...which will help widen the fracture...but do so while we keep pounding home the major ideological differences between the actual “right” and “left” side of the political aisle. And we should also bring major attention to the overt failures of the Democrat party's overall agenda while at the same time heralding Republican successes (prime of which was the much needed sealing of our Southern border).
