Taryn Rosenkranz on the DSA: No Matter What We Say and Do, Socialism Is About Putting Money Back into People’s Pockets

‘You’re seeing the excitement around it, in very liberal places’

RUSH EXCERPT:
ROSENKRANZ: "I actually think it’s a small part of the election. What do they say in politics, all politics is home and we’ll feel that in races across the country and it will come to those kitchen table issues and the economic impact that people are feeling. We can’t just tell them it’s a rosie economy, jobs are coming, they need to feel like they have enough extra money. As you said with these record gasoline prices and the most expensive travel weekend, people feel that and they will keep feeling that every time they go to the grocery store, every time they are getting their medicine from the pharmacy so no matter what we say and do socialism is about putting money back into people’s pots. That wasn’t even put, that convention wasn’t even put on by the democratic socialists of America. It’s such a small part and you’re seeing the excitement around it, in very liberal places and that’s not where these hard fought races are going to be when it comes to November."
