“A 28-year-old Democratic Socialist just ousted a powerful, 10-term congressman in New York”

Among the things on her to-do list: abolish ICE

This might play well in New York, but a hard left turn is not a winner nationwide for Democrats.

She was a Bernie supporter. It's letting the country know progressives are not going anywhere and will continue to fight Drumpf and his base.

I think that approach can work really well locally in reliably Democratic areas, but not necessarily nationally. A lot of my southern neighbors don’t like Trump but see some of the hard left stuff regarding gender, political correctness/sensitivity, immigration, etc and just can’t vote for the party that would be open to pushing their ideas.

I don't think the south won the election for Drumpf. It might take another 50 years for your southern brethren to catch up up with the rest of the country.

I love it when your side pushes the lunatic left into positions of power. If you can find a few more Warrens the conservatives should be good for centuries.

I sure hope not. I'm a staunch and non-religious supporter of science, environmental stewardship and public education. Fortunate to be in more of an "evolved" area.

Just can't get on board with all the hard left stuff. Definitely can't watch TV anymore.

Obviously the soft left didn't win last time. Drumpf's rhetoric is fueling the fire for the hard left. I don't see this ending anytime soon.
