Margaret Hoover: 21 out of 48 Candidates Hasan Piker Supported Won — Should the Establishment Rethink Its Position on Him?

RUSH EXCERPT:

HOOVER: “Centrist Democrats have spent a lot of this election, all the candidates and electeds, railing against Hasan Piker, including you, who said that he should not be taken seriously. The numbers suggest that 48 Progressives that Hasan campaigned with, of those 48, 21 won their primaries, seven unseated incumbents, and eight won open seats. He didn’t change the game for Abdul El-Sayed. And on election night, Piker had the second most watched live stream. So should establishment Democrats rethink their position on Piker? And you’ve argued that Democratic Socialists who reject the Democratic Party’s identity shouldn’t be part of it. And yet, the Democratic Socialist movement has this growing reputation in Congress and representation in Congress and undeniable energy among young voters. So what’s to be done?”
