Armstrong does nice job explaining Why the Democratic Party is Going Extinct
The Democrats have never really stood for anything definitive. They have switched their focus only to win. This has been their downfall. This WOKE agenda has been another issue like the Silver Democrats. They refuse to actually look at the nation as a whole and choose just the middle of the road.
Consequently, the party is doomed. Many have been abandoning the Democratic Party in droves, and they are too compromised to come to grips with their lack of common sense. The fragmentation will continue, and they will purge the WOKE proponents as they did with the Silver Miners that sent the US Treasury into virtual bankruptcy.
The rise of Marxism began during the Long Depression (1873-1899), which was accelerated thanks to the Democrat overvaluing silver, which led to the flight of gold from the United States.
Even Frover Cleveland (1837-1908) was the Democratic President during the Panic of 1893. He spoke out against his own party’s unsound finances. The Democrats have NEVER stood for the country. They have always shifted back and forth between ideas that merely gain their power regardless of the soundness of the policy for the nation.
Despite the unsound finance that virtually bankrupted the country, the Democrats only cared about winning. This caused the Panic of 1896 when JP Morgan had to bail out the Treasury with a $100 million gold loan. Even Puck Magazine joked about how America was virtually bankrupt, drowning in overvalued silver thanks to the bribes the silver miners paid to the Democrats.
In 1904, Democrats Parker/Davis got the fewest votes of any Democrat until Al Smith in 1928. This led them to usurp the ideas of progressivism, abandoning the inflationary policies of overvaluing silver relative to gold and becoming the champions of Marxism. They secured so few votes that I do not recall their names ever being discussed in history class. They looked around and took the progressive ideas of Teddy Roosevelt, who won in 1907 but then lost.
The Democrats adopted Marxism and was now their new mantra after the lost on slavery, then ending the gold standard, so now Marxism was the answer. They became Progressives, adopting that rising star from the Progressive Party. They pushed for the Marxist Agenda of income tax and then ran on bribing voters, promising to steal from the rich and give it to their supporters.
Coxley’s protest demanded that the government create jobs. Roosevelt took that idea, and it became the Works Progress Administration (WPA), an ambitious employment and infrastructure program during the darkest days of the Great Depression following the 1931 Sovereign Debt defaults of most of the world. Over eight years, the WPA put roughly 8.5 million Americans to work building schools, hospitals, roads, and other public works. The WPA also sponsored projects in the arts—the agency employed tens of thousands of actors, musicians, writers, and other artists.
