Corporate democrats are mad they’re going to have primary fights going forward. Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below. Read Cenk's response here
"Cenk Uygur of The Young Turks is mad, mad, I tell you, that the wicked Democratic establishment and corporate media keeps pointing out that the hard left's purity tests are a problem. Purity tests? What purity tests?!
The lack of self-awareness is so profound it should be funny. But it's not. The fact that being a part of the establishment automatically bars you from being a progressive is, itself, exactly the kind of nonsensical purity test Uygur is pretending doesn't exist. Elizabeth Warren, one of the most progressive people in all of Congress, will be disappointed to learn she's just another establishment shill.
The rest of the rant goes on to blast the Democrats for not abandoning Super PAC money in the face of the multi-billion dollar funding machine run by the Kochs, the Mercers and Sheldon Adelson, to name a few. Because unilateral disarmament always works in mortal combat. Like most ideologues, Uygur is more than happy to shoot spitballs from the back of the classroom. It's easy to be morally pure when you don't actually have to govern or run for re-election every 2 years.”*
