The Democrat Party’s Inevitable ‘Never Trump’ Moment spectator.org/the-democratic…
Just as Trump was forced to fight an organized resistance from within Republican ranks, the 2020 Democratic nominee will likewise encounter a measure of mutiny.
The Never Trump movement shattered party unity and forced an exodus of Republican elites, reshaping the GOP into an entirely new animal.
And the Democrats’ factionalism, divided among establishment holdouts, disenchanted Bernie bros, and a new breed of brash, unapologetic radical who preach extreme socialism and environmentalism, will almost certainly fracture the party’s foundations as the primaries heat up.
But differences that divided the 2016 GOP were minuscule compared to those facing the 2020 Dem field. Trump’s perceived arrogance and uncouth debating style were one thing; party infighting over issues such as universal healthcare and late-term abortion will prove quite another.
The lines have been drawn, and the radical wing is already well represented; Elizabeth Warren was first to declare and far-left California Senator Kamala Harris recently followed suit.
Their socialist brother-in-arms and original establishment instigator Bernie Sanders is also reportedly gearing up for yet another go.

In fact, the first seal may have been broken as both camps are already trading barbs a year before the first states hold their primaries. 🍿
Bloomberg has compared Warren’s “millionaire tax,” which targets wealth rather than income, to Venezuela, and labeled Ocasio-Cortez’s Green New Deal as “pie in the sky.”
It doesn’t take a psychic to foresee what nearly two years of constant “he said, she said” analysis will do to further drive the wedge between the party’s traditional center and the up-and-coming outsiders.
