The Green New Deal: The Left’s Phony Attempt to Co-Opt Trump’s Labor Populism
Armstrong Williams / @Arightside / March 02, 2019 / 3 Comments
The florid Green New Deal proposed by newly elected Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., has been widely panned by critics on both the right and the left–but perhaps most notably by Democratic Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.
What many critics of the deal fail to note, however, is that the supposed “New Deal†is the Democrats’ most recent attempt to co-opt President Donald Trump’s populist agenda.
The Green New Deal seeks to achieve on paper what the laws of both physics and economics would not allow in practice: It is attempting to appeal to the strength of the American worker while at the same time discouraging American industrialism.
