Centrist Democrats No Longer Want To Be Part Of The Freak Show

Yeah, but, they ignored the gender confused elephant in the room for a long time. They went with it. They didn’t complain about it. Now they’re upset?

Centrist Dems seize opening at the DNC: ‘I don’t want to be the freak show party’

Centrist Democrats are revolting.

As they begin to dissect their collapse in the presidential election, some Democratic National Committee members are concluding that the party is too “woke,” too focused on identity politics and too out of touch with broad stretches of America.

Those existential concerns, according to interviews with more than two dozen DNC members, are shaping the earliest stages of the race for DNC chair and, in the absence of a formal party autopsy, blame-casting among members about the causes of Vice President Kamala Harris’ defeat.

“The progressive wing of the party has to recognize — we all have to recognize — the country’s not progressive, and not to the far left or the far right. They’re in the middle,” said Joseph Paolino Jr., DNC committeeman for Rhode Island. “I’m going to look for a chair who’s going to be talking to the center and who’s going to be for the guy who drives a truck back home at the end of the day.”

Or as one DNC member from Florida put it: “I don’t want to be the freak show party, like they have branded us. You know, when you’re a mom with three kids, and you live in middle America and you’re just not really into politics, and you see these ads that scare the bejesus out of you, you’re like, ‘I know Trump’s weird or whatever, but I would rather his weirdness that doesn’t affect my kids.’”

Well, good luck. The moonbat base runs the party. The wacko groups that back the Democrats, who are out there demonstrating, who give lots of money, won’t allow it. The so-called centrists (are there many?) have sat around and watched the freak-show for decades and just gone along on the rafting river of rainbow anger tears. How will they possibly change the Democratic Party?

“I do think there’s this whole sentiment that we just went too far out there on identity, and it allowed the Republicans to really attack us at every turn as a result, and that we just essentially did not focus on just the everyday issues of Americans,” said one DNC member from California, granted anonymity to speak freely.

“I’m not interested in anyone who is moving further away from the center,” said Cindy Bass, a Pennsylvania committee member from Philadelphia. “The center is where we have to be.”

And what do they consider to be the center? Is it the center of the Democrat Party which is now still pretty far left? Will they still 100% support transitioning kids, showing them pornographic books in schools, have purple haired teachers festooned with piercings, have biological boys with mental illness on girl’s teams and in their locker rooms? Will they still support abortion at any time with zero restrictions? Will the still support government forcing social media to restrict free speech? How about no cash bail? All the laws that cause a spike in lower level crime? Confiscating firearms? All the DEI and Woke stuff? Identity politics?

We don’t know, because they aren’t saying.
