On Mark Halperin\u2019s The Morning Meeting platform, a Puerto Rican-born voter with Cuban heritage living in Florida sounded the alarm Monday over the Democrats\u2019 far-left drift and announced a permanent breakup with the party he used to support.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Since President Donald Trump\u2019s re-election, the Democratic establishment has watched its leftist wing barnstorm the country, racking up one victory after another.

The movement scored another huge win earlier this month when Michigan Democrats nominated Abdul El-Sayed for U.S. Senate, delivering a humiliating blow to the party establishment, which failed to stop him from advancing to a pivotal November showdown with Trump-endorsed Republican Mike Rogers.

\u201cI think it\u2019s part of an indoctrination of a lot of upper-class white young kids that are clueless. I think that\u2019s really the base of the DSA. It\u2019s not the working class. It\u2019s just not. I don\u2019t know the answer. I don\u2019t care,\u201d Gary said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

At the first-of-its-kind Republican midterm convention in Dallas, GOP leaders plan to take that message nationwide, framing November\u2019s election as a choice between \u201ccommon sense and crazy,\u201d The Daily Wire reported.A Republican source told The Daily Wire that the convention will spotlight the socialist\u2019s movement\u2019s most fringe positions on gender, policing, efforts to cancel Thanksgiving, as well as the growing electoral influence of leftist streamer Hasan Piker, who has admitted to colluding with Cuba\u2019s communist regime.\u00a0Failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is also worried that Republicans\u2019 \u201canti-communist\u201d messaging could sink socialist candidates and jeopardize the party\u2019s chances of retaking control of Congress. During a podcast appearance with liberal tech journalist Kara Swisher, Clinton raised concerns about the electability of El-Sayed and other DSA-backed candidates.\u00a0\u201cYou\u2019re not going to convince Republican voters in Michigan, and the real fight will be how do we make sure that people who voted for Haley feel comfortable voting for Abdul El-Sayed, and how do we get independents to feel comfortable?\u201d Clinton asked. \u201cAnd you can see that it\u2019s not just about Michigan, but the Republican messaging is communist, socialist. It\u2019s going to be a very effective attack.\u201d\u00a0","og_url":"https:\/\/blueroutejournal.com\/?p=2381","og_site_name":"Blue Route Journal","article_published_time":"2026-08-17T23:37:57+00:00","author":"admin","twitter_card":"summary_large_image","twitter_misc":{"Written by":"admin","Est. reading time":"4 minutes"},"schema":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Article","@id":"https:\/\/blueroutejournal.com\/?p=2381#article","isPartOf":{"@id":"https:\/\/blueroutejournal.com\/?p=2381"},"author":{"name":"admin","@id":"https:\/\/blueroutejournal.com\/#\/schema\/person\/19da116f8d79cf8987781569801c6b7c"},"headline":"\u2018Parasites\u2019: Puerto Rican-Born Man Torches Dems\u2019 Socialist Takeover","datePublished":"2026-08-17T23:37:57+00:00","mainEntityOfPage":{"@id":"https:\/\/blueroutejournal.com\/?p=2381"},"wordCount":739,"commentCount":0,"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/blueroutejournal.com\/?p=2381#primaryimage"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/blueroutejournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/35de85738805e7bb0b1368f53bcd4815.avif","articleSection":["News"],"inLanguage":"en-US","potentialAction":[{"@type":"CommentAction","name":"Comment","target":["https:\/\/blueroutejournal.com\/?p=2381#respond"]}]},{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https:\/\/blueroutejournal.com\/?p=2381","url":"https:\/\/blueroutejournal.com\/?p=2381","name":"\u2018Parasites\u2019: Puerto Rican-Born Man Torches Dems\u2019 Socialist Takeover -
