House Democrat Goes On Fox News And Bashes Progressives

Democratic Representative Jared Moskowitz went on Fox News this week and decided to go after his own Party instead of the criminals that are running the country. Moskowitz trashed the Progressive wing of the Party, suggesting that they were too extreme to win in the midterms and suggested a more “moderate” approach. That is EXACTLY why Democrats keep losing to the most corrupt Party in American history, and Moskowitz is now part of that problems. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

This past weekend, democratic representative, Jared Moscowitz, went on Fox News, along with host Shannon Bre, where for some reason he decided to take a lot of time to bash the progressive wing of the Democratic Party, which really makes no sense when you think about it. I mean, look at who's actually causing damage to the country right now. It sure as hell is not the progressives. Nope, that would be the Republicans. So there was absolutely no reason for Moscowitz who I actually up to this moment, had a ton of respect for, really liked the guy, but he destroyed it by unnecessarily and very stupidly going after progressives in his own party with an backwards analysis. So here's what happens. Shannon Bream asks Moskowitz quote, let me ask you about this. Back home in Florida, my home state, you have been taking some heat from the more progressive wing of your party most recently for not showing up for this town hall that they had put together. One of the organizers said this, we worked hard to get him elected, and now he's not answering questions. They say the crowd then booed, then somebody yelled primary, then there was applause. Are you like many of your party kind of caught in the middle between the old and the new guard, the progressive wings? Do you, do you feel like the party is coalesced about who's leading it and how you move forward?

Now let me tell you, before I even read you his response, let me tell you how Moscowitz should have responded to that very question. Yes, I did not show up to that town hall. Um, but at the same time, you know, I was, I I, I had this engagement. I couldn't get out of it. Something like that. Whatever, make up some excuse. But then talk about this. We have seen Republicans ducking town halls. I don't see them being paraded onto this program and asked about that. We have seen Republicans lie to the American public saying that, oh, everybody asking me tough questions. These are paid protestors from George Soros. He's writing them checks. That's a lie. So Republicans wanna sit there and lie about the fact that they are facing any kind of backlash. Maybe I made a mistake not going to this town hall, and I promise my constituents I will make it up to you. I will be there. We will have these discussions and I will listen to your, your, your concerns and I will address them in Congress. But let's not act for a second. Like the Democratic Party is the one in disarray. When we have Republicans that I work with every day that can't even agree on a funding bill, they're trying to strip low-income Americans of the few privileges they have so that they can give a tax cut to the wealthy elite. That is the real issue and that is what we should be talking about right now.

That's what Moscowitz should have said. Every word I just said was spontaneous. I don't have this scripted out. Honestly, that's not even where I was gonna go. I didn't even think about this ahead of time. That was literally off the top of my head. And Moscowitz could have done the same thing. Instead, he said this. Yeah, so first on that town hall, what wasn't my town hall? It was the town hall. The special interest group put on that. They invited all three Congress people from the area. None of them came. So it wasn't that I just didn't show up. No one showed up from Congress. You know, that being said, my district is a d plus two district. It's a moderate district. I'm a moderate. I'm not a progressive. I've never said I was a progressive. I have democratic values. I've been a Democrat my whole life.
