Progressively Worse: Why Today's Democrats Ain't Your Daddy's Donkeys [9780063334809]

Overview

If John F. Kennedy, Tip O’Neill, or even Bill Clinton were to run as Democrat candidates today, their own party, influenced by modern cancel culture, would reject them in a heartbeat.

If the Joe Biden of 1992 were to run today, MSNBC would label him “MAGA Joe.” In the arena of American politics, how did JFK’s party of Catholics and union workers become AOC’s party of privileged Ivy Leaguers with “Queers for Palestine” signs and purple hair?

Over the past few decades, the Democratic party's embrace of left-wing politics has swung them so far from the center that they have little in common with past generations of progressives. In Progressively Worse, bestselling author and Fox News contributor Joe Concha highlights how the Democrats used to:

·        Care about blue collar workers

·        Protest against new wars

·        Defend free speech

·        Criticize the elites and Wall Street

·        Want limits on immigration

Now, the party of the hippies is now the party of Hamasniks, and the party of femi­nists now celebrates male athletes in women’s sports. Through spotlights of key influencers like Gavin Newsom, Rashida Tlaib, Keith Olbermann, and Pete Buttigieg, this sharp political commentary lays out the facts every American should know about the Democrat party. It’s not even a party anymore. It’s more like the hangover the day after.
