Mercedes Schlapp: Debate That’s Happening Within the Democratic Party Is One of Socialism Versus Socialism-Light

‘What they are focused on is moving the country toward the left, where government takes control of every aspect of your life ‘

EXCERPT:

SCHLAPP: “I can’t comment on any particular Democratic candidate. What I can say is that this debate that’s happening within the Democratic Party is one of socialism versus socialism-lite. It’s very clear that the Democrats have moved far left on even the most basic issues. You look at the fact of Medicare-for-all, where their promotion and their policies are clearly those of ensuring that you have 180 million Americans losing their private health insurance. So they are a party that lack solutions, they lack ideas, they lack vision. What they are focused on is moving the country towards the left, where government takes control of every aspect of your life instead of allowing the American people and their potential to be unleashed, which is what we’ve seen under President Trump’s presidency."
