DeFrancesco Soto: Rashida Tlaib’s Call Is ‘Incredibly Serious’

EXCERPT:

DEFRANCESCO SOTO: "So this call by the congresswoman on its own is incredibly serious. Because their point, Yasmin, in states such as Michigan, where you win elections with razor thin margins, you cannot afford to alienate any of your core constituencies, and Arab Americans be one of these core constituencies for the Democratic Party. So that is serious, hard stop. But then you start adding that on to other mounting issues in the Democratic Party, namely, the growing concerns about President Biden age, not from folks outside of the Democratic Party, but folks from within the Democratic Party. Most recently, we saw a piece by Ezra Klein in 'The New York Times,' really talking through why his candidacy is so weak. So I think it's not just the criticism of the congresswoman on its own, but then you add that to other things and as a side note, we're starting to see Latinos who have always been a core constituency of the Democratic Party, also starting to show indications that they're not as strongly democratic as they have been in the past.”
