Michael Moore Rejoices: The Old Democrat Party Is Dead
< >
Left-wing documentary filmmaker Michael Moore rejoiced following Wednesday night’s Democrat debate, declaring his hope that the old Democrat Party is finally “dead.”
During Wednesday’s debate, Moore praised Democrat candidates for essentially trying to out-woke each other in their political grandstanding.
“This was the first time in my life I’ve watched Democrats fight to be more progressive than the other Dems,” Moore told his 6 million Twitter followers. “The old Dem Party hopefully is dead & this one must appeal to youth, ppl of color & women.”
This is not the first time the Fahrenheit 11/9 filmmaker has called for the left to push the envelope.
In February, Moore declared middle ground gone on virtually every issue and urged Democrats to trash any remaining moderate positions.
“If you’re being moderate, stop being moderate. Take a position,” Moore said during an appearance on MSNBC. “There’s no middle ground anymore. There’s no halfway point to should somebody be paid a living wage.”
“You know, on the issue of choice, there is no halfway there,” he continued. “You’re either for it or you’re against it. Do you believe in equal rights for women? Do you believe we should have an Equal Rights Amendment? There’s no middle ground. There’s no time for moderation.”
Wednesday’s candidates revealed just how far left the Democrat party is headed. When asked who would abolish private insurance completely, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Mayor Bill de Blasio raised their hands. The NYC mayor also affirmed Democrats’ support for a “70 percent tax rate on the wealthy” and “free public college for young people.”
Former San Antonio Mayor Julián Castro (D) bragged about his healthcare plan, which he says would cover abortion, or “the right to choose,” for trans-women as well — a biological impossibility.
“I don’t believe only in reproductive freedom, I believe in reproductive justice. And what that means is that just because a woman, or let’s also not forget someone in the trans community, a trans female, is poor, doesn’t mean they shouldn’t have the right to exercise that right to choose,” he said.
