Schumer Feels Heat From Progressives
A
likely site for the next battle royal between the new populists and
the more establishment wing of the Democratic Party is looming in New York. Earlier this year, Senate Democrat Leader Chuck Schumer, who had lashed out at Donald Trump’s “billionaire buddies,” nonetheless sided with the president and Senate Republicans on their proposal to keep the government funded and running. Social media went berserk, with leftist bloggers calling Schumer “traitor” and much worse. A Data for Progress poll conducted in April among likely Democrat voters in the Empire State showed Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez leading Schumer by a whopping 55%-36% statewide.
SCHUMER
Washington Examiner editor-in-chief Hugo Gurdon concluded the tactic of Democrats turning to the politics of class warfare “has come about primarily because Democrats lost millions of working-class and lower-middle class voters to Trump, and they are desperate to win them back.”
Adam Probolsky, a nonpartisan pollster, concluded that “most Democrat leaders fear that a white, prosperous, non-pronoun society is slipping away, and Democrats are offering them absolutely nothing to calm their concerns.
“The Black and Latino men that defected to Trump are focused on achieving financial freedom — they were born into a world with infinite entrepreneurial opportunities that their parents only dreamed of. The current face of the Democratic Party will never win them back.”
Billionaires Bankroll Leſt
A
s much as the Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wing of
the Democratic Party hurls invective at “billionaires” and insists that they are behind
the agenda perpetrated by Donald Trump, it is Democrat billionaires who have helped move it to the progressive camp — and, in the process, lost traditional supporters. Among the names heard in this category are Vinod Khosla, billionaire venture
KHOSLA SOROS
capitalist; Netflix chief executive Reed Hastings, one of the earliest Democrat megadonors to call on Joe Biden to step down last year; and a relatively recent
addition to the group with a very familiar
name — Alex Soros, son of notorious billionaire George Soros, whose reach worldwide has helped to move political parties in different countries to the left.
