House Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi criticized El-Sayed on a recent episode of the On Brand podcast. Host Donny Deutsch claimed El-Sayed had made “concerning” comments opposing the existence of a Jewish state. “That’s antisemitic as far as I’m concerned,” he said.

“No, it’s more than concerning. It’s wrong,” Pelosi said. “It’s wrong, and it isn’t a reflection of the Democrats in the Congress of the United States. This new person in Michigan, we’ll see if he gets elected to the Congress.”

…

Again, with Stevens, we see Democrats placing continued support for Israel before the success of their own party and their own constituents. Is it any wonder that Stevens lost?

    We both know it’s more than 2

    I can wait until midterms when the ‘democrats bad’ crowd crawl under a rock for another two years.

    They’d go away if the dems stopped actively being terrible

      They’re the only party with a chance against the republicans.

      I’d much rather have Trump’s power limited and start working with a party that has a chance than what we’re doing now.

        So you are actually upset the dems are terrible and just angry at people acknowledging it?

        Attacking those that want them to be better isn’t the way to win

          I’m not attacking anyone I’m saying what you and people like you are doing a couple days before the midterms is self-defeating unless you want Trump to keep power over the next two years.

            Again attacking people.

            The better question is why this community is full of shitty articles talking about how bad the democrats are right before the midterms.

            I swear it’s right-wing and Russia propaganda.

            And this was you calling anyone criticizing the dems for being extremely dumb Russian propaganda.

            I’m not attacking anyone I’m saying what you and people like you are doing a couple days before the midterms is self-defeating unless you want Trump to keep power over the next two years.

            Again the dems continuous failures and losses to republicans are entirely on them not the ones calling out their spectacular ability to snatch defeat from certain victory. Burying heads in the sand to avoid that is what continues the shit cycle
