Dem Rep. Auchincloss Says the Party Needs to Define a ‘New Center’ in Order to Accommodate for Communists
EXCERPT:
AUCHINCLOSS: “Yes, so this is the tired debate that actually Democrats have to avoid, is this tug of war on one axis, left versus right. When the actual leverage of American politics is defining a new center and dragging and dropping ideas into that center promiscuously. So for example, the left talks about wanting to tax wealth. Yes, yes, we should be taxing wealth in this country. It is profoundly unfair that somebody who inherits $10 million pays less tax than someone who works for $100,000. That's not fair, OK? The right talks about faith, family and the flag. Yes, Democrats should embrace faith, family and the flag. We can be both of those things as a party, a party that wants to tax inherited privilege and a party that believes that America is the greatest nation in the history of the world.”
