There Is a Revolution on the Left. Democrats Are Bracing.

There Is a Revolution on the Left. Democrats Are Bracing.

DETROIT — For Rachel Conner, the 2018 election season has been a moment of revelation.

A 27-year-old social worker, Ms. Conner voted for Hillary Clinton in the 2016 primaries, spurning the more liberal Bernie Sanders, whom many of her peers backed. But Ms. Conner changed course in this year’s campaign for governor, after concluding that Democrats could only win with more daring messages on issues like public health and immigration.

And so on a recent Wednesday, she enlisted two other young women to volunteer for Abdul El-Sayed, a 33-year-old advocate of single-payer health care running an uphill race in Michigan to become the country’s first Muslim governor.

“They need to wake up and pay attention to what people actually want,” Ms. Conner said of Democratic leaders. “There are so many progressive policies that have widespread support that mainstream Democrats are not picking up on, or putting that stuff down and saying, ‘That wouldn’t really work.’”

Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!

The "eggs" the upper middle-class and Trust Fund commie children of the 60's has now hatched,and cannibal chicks emerged that are now of age and are going to devour the hens and roosters that created them.

Chances are we will either see a violent revolution within the next 10 years,or America as a free and independent nation will cease to exist as we become part of an international borg of communist states.

Who will win? Will it be the Stalinists,or the Jeffersonian's?
