Writing in the Wall Street Journal today, Bret Stephens notes that ” The Democratic Party is on the cusp of abandoning the state of Israel. That’s a shame, though less for Israel than it is for the Democrats. The Democrats’ historic support for the Jewish state has always been what’s best about the party.”
So, the Democrats are abandoning one of the pillars of its past appeals to liberals? and throwing Israel under the bus? Is anyone surprised? In fact, are any of the pillars of its former liberal edifice still standing? So many former principles have been thrown under the bus that there are no longer enough buses go to around (perhaps because so many were contracted to transport the wave of “unexpected” minors who flooded the southwestern border a number of months before the flood arrived, a fact even factcheck.org could not deny).
For those who would like chapter and verse on other examples of liberals turning their backs on their past principles, see here and here.
