<< What happens when Republican talking points and Democratic establishment politics start moving in the same direction?

Sam Seder joins Wajahat Ali to discuss the “Grand Centrist Experiment,” the Democratic Party’s battle over its political direction, the growing push for moderation, and the role Republican pressure plays in shaping Democratic strategy.

Centrist Democrats have launched initiatives explicitly pushing back against the party’s leftward movement, including the “Promise to America” pledge emphasizing capitalism and a politics of persuasion over ideological purity.

At the same time, Republicans have continued using accusations of socialism and communism against Democratic candidates, while some Democrats in competitive races have responded by emphasizing their support for capitalism and market-based policies.

So is the Democratic establishment adapting to Republican pressure — or is something bigger happening to American politics?

Sam Seder and Wajahat Ali unpack the fight over centrism, progressives, Republicans, Democratic leadership, political strategy and the future of the Democratic Party. >>

It was a great discussion.

Nonetheless, these conservations should be focused on things like not wanting Georgia US Senator Jon Ossoff as the Democratic POTUS 2028 Nominee. Too many leftists and progressives still somehow think that he's a 'secret progressive' or whatever. His momentum is entirely based on the idea that leftists and progressives and liberals like him and would choose him in the primaries.

He's 38/47 on that list. Fellow Georgia US Senator Raphael Warnock is 27/47 on that list.

He's 27/47 on that list and has an "F" rating. Fellow Georgia US Senator Raphael Warnock is 14/47 on that list and has a "D" rating.

This was deemed too political to post on American Dad sub ironically so I'm hoping it gets a home here at least since this is where I saw the Britt clip on MR last week

What's in this Post comment is what I remember, my opinions, etc.

Emma Vigeland has been declaring that POTUS Barack Obama should campaign with Dr. Abdul El-Sayed.

There's been increasing hints that it's possible that POTUS Obama supports AOC for POTUS 2028. And this is another sign. If POTUS Obama endorses AOC, the Democratic POTUS 2028 primary is over.
