AOC's eyes are going to pop clean out of her head this time.

But anyway, looks like the focus groups are starting to be hard to ignore for the Dems.

Where's Pelosi with her 25th amendment note cards?

Having studied marxism a bit more, the left really doesn't come close to being marxist, at least not yet. It could be said there are marxist elements trying to take over the party, but true marxism once implemented would turn against and eliminate all these "woke" groups that helped them gain power and the resulting society would be much more homogeneous than the left could ever imagine. Study your history. We're talking forced destruction of distinct cultural mores and assimilation into a single cultural collective using strict control over information, education system, and media. It's clear there are elements with lots of power trying to achieve just this. There might be different skin colors but they'd all be forced to act fairly similar, which might even have some benefits. Nonetheless, I can't support it as a style of government as I don't trust human nature. A dictator can't be trusted to dictate properly. Checks and balances help divide up power and keep human nature in check.

The democrats should be worried about certain factions within their own party, not the republicans. Marxists could easily try to take over a right wing party also by the way... if the culture was conducive to it.. but right now the culture very much supports subversion of the democrat party, and it's very clearly going on as we speak.

Biden might actually believe it but this presser or speech had more going on than the obvious.

Biden and administration already getting slammed for inaction and lack of condemnation. There are huge pro Cuban or anti communist voting blocks in places like NY, NJ and Florida. Polling over the week might have indicated they were losing support in those areas. Wasserman Schultz's district could be a district in jeopardy. Also after Psaki's facebook misinfo admission the damage control teams were called into action.If nothing else Biden is a 'professional' politician.

It's no different then when Democrats come out and say they support the 2nd Amendment, BUT nobody needs a _______. It's not what they say that counts it's what the do.
