This former GOP lawmaker just made the ultimate move to combat Donald Trump’s agenda.
Former U.S. Rep. Joe Walsh announced Tuesday that he is joining the Democratic Party—a shocking move for a self-described “freedom-loving conservative” and staunch supporter of the Tea Party movement. Walsh was an initial supporter of Trump, but broke with him over disagreements with his policy during the first term.
“Three words I never thought I’d ever utter: I’m a Democrat,” Walsh wrote in his blog post. “This former Republican Congressman, former Republican candidate for President, this former TEA Party champion is formally joining the Democratic Party.”
They are only centrist if you are euro centric. Much of the world is debating authoritarianism vs liberalism still.
And liberalism os clearly losing since it keeps paving the way for fascists.
No, most liberal nations haven’t become fascist.
Is that why AFD has skyrocketed in Germany and Reform UK in the UK? Or why Italy jas a fascist PM and Mussolini’s granddaughter in parliament? Or why the US has been marching further and further right every decade for the past 50 years? Or why Hungary is essentially a dictatorship? Or why the fascists control nearly 1/3 of seats in the French government? Or why Geert Wilders was just able to frag the Dutch government to get his way?
Far right parties aren’t taking over the world because liberal government is going well. Capitalism is eating itself and liberals are only interested in keeping the machine running.
You might need to see how many nations are liberal and then do the math. It’s nowhere as bad as you might think.
