The Bulwark’s Jonathan Last: ‘Did The Neocons Just Take Over the Democratic Party?’

EXCERPT:

LONGWELL: "To me, they had clearly been like, 'Look, it's our last chance. We're going to do it all in this speech, right? So we're going to hit -- we're going to make sure that people know child tax credit and we're going to build housing and we're going to cap insulin prices.' Although I kind of thought they already did that, but maybe I don't know my policy as correct. But here's the thing about the cheering that I loved. Speaking of stonewall. But also I think it's amazing when you get 75,000 presumably libs on the Ellipse and she's like, we're going to have the most lethal fighting force. And people are like, 'Yeah.' And she's like, 'And we're going to secure the border!' And people are like, 'Yeah.' And I was just like, this is -- and she's like, 'You know, we are going to -- we are going to be leaders in the world, and we're not going to let these guys push us around. And I was like, 'Man, man, the world's really changed.'"
LAST: "Did the Neocons just take over the Democratic party?" (Laughter)
MILLER: "Don't -- don't say that."
LONGWELL: "Yeah. Don't say it.”
