Big if true

Sign and share my petition to impeach Donald Trump and JD Vance, and remove Elon Musk’s dangerous influence from our government. www.change.org/Impeach_Dona...

Can they have their moment in the sun on the literal fucking sun please

Believe it when I actually see the results

Propaganda garbage lol

Trash

"pulled to the middle." Yeah sure fine except the middle is a lot further to the right than it used to be. And it just keeps sliding. This is some Chamberlain-level appeasement.

Bruh

Lol fuck off

That's hilarious. The Democratic base is turning on moderates who refuse to represent their interests with passion. I've never seen anything like it from this group.

I believe you they like terrible human beings.

Dear God, let the midterms come quickly

Like dick they are. Bernie and Walz are out there trying to do everything while mid-Dems complain about voters not being more Republican for them

You just want to help Trump win.

US Politics are basically Reagan era GOP vs 1930s German right wing, and Dems are proud of this for some fucking reason

Elections are 2 long years away!!

You are really trying it

Newsome is a centrist? 🤔

Fuck off

Politico thinks Democrats running on an economic message is an example of "centrism" 😂 That is literally the dumbest fucking thing I've ever read. Does Politico really think the Democratic Party had been running on trans issues and DEI at the expense of economic issues since 2015? Fucking really?

Centrist Dems and NeoLibs are the reason trump has been viable. You’re a shit media outlet

Ask Schumer and Fetterman how that moment is going.

Shoot Rahm fucking Enmanuel into the sun

No they aren’t, you fucking idiots. This is why they lost.

Great. If there’s anything called for in these times it’s moderation.

The air having oxygen is having a moment

Lol said the Trump AFD supporting news. “Centrists” lose.

Tldr a democrat who lost in iowa by not that much, and 1 other person who won in a red state where that was most likely the only option from the democrats, means that third way neo liberals are having their time to shine. They will flip every seat in the house and senate blue for us. Give me a break

Politico is owned by Axel Springer, a pretty far-right German publishing house

Absolute drivel

They will have every opportunity to increase their balance of power in both houses and in states come midterm elections.

There's nothing "extreme" about advocating for human rights. Minorities should not suffer the tyranny of a majority's persecution.

This is absolutely not true. Democrat approval is at an all-time low with their base, and swinging to the 'center' (IE, moving right) is profoundly unpopular even with so-called 'centrist' democrats. Everyone is losing points. Why are you carrying water for fascist-ass behavior, Politico?

😂

I don't like how biased towards the right your article is coded, Politico. Stop trying to look bipartisan. You're not fooling most of us.

There are signs far from Washington that the Democratic Party has messily shat it’s pants

lol no they aren’t. Dems favorability has cratered. Just because republicans are also cratering doesn’t mean Dems are doing well.

Hope they quietly take over red states Seeing as ya know News media is now Trump tv and no one knows wtf is going on anywhere in the states

Thing is Democrats let us down last time. Didn’t control the border, didn’t stand up to Israel

Where is this coming from??? I should rephrase the question. Who or what is financing this stupid inaccurate article?? Nooooooo Corporate Dems are NOT doing well right now!!!

We don't need centrists, we need people who will do sh*t.

Rahm should be in jail

Dem favorability polling shows the party at the lowest popularity it's literally ever seen in its entire history. Moderates lost the most important election of our lifetimes, and then other moderates capitulated to a wannabe dictator during a clear constitutional crisis.

Vichy America preparing for their moment in the sun

So... you're just making up the news?

I doubt it really. Those stupid enough to vote Trump because of a load of lies will still be stupid in 4 years time so will believe something equally ridiculous. The selfish will still be selfish. The really well off will be even richer. There needs to be a seismic shift away from Trump.

Considering how much the left is absolutely eviscerating Dems like Schumer and Newsom right now, I would say that, no, centrist Democrats are not, in fact, “having a moment” right now. Knock this shit off. You’re never going to make fetch happen.

Yup, 2016 ended up leading to extreme leftist candidate......Joe Biden.

This is a crap analysis.

Psyop and cope in one.

That and a quote from a Third Way bobblehead and you've got an article baby!

You don't get it, do you???? Newsom is gonna invite to his podcast the jaw of Adolf Hitler and spend 2 hours peddling to the far right. That's exactly the energy we need for 2028!

Right on. The battle cry of “moderates” that would like the fascism to be a little more polite like in the old day.

Really shit take by Politico. Democrats going to the center is the LAST thing they need. This feels like a conservative propaganda piece.

Of course deep red areas are electing moderate dems since voters know that they are way more likely to cave to Trump than progressives

God he’s such a fucking ghoul

Yes but it doesn’t matter. The Democratic Party is controlled opposition and they will always find a way to throw the election to the GOP. And most republicans are happy to hurt their own livelihood for the sake of hurting the people they hate even more.

We don't actually know about that whole "having elections" thing just right now. Check back in a few years.

Politico is owned by a Nazi who wants to see the United States subsumed by fascism and Centrist Democrats prefer fascism to social democracy

Centrists are spineless

"Centrist" isn't a real thing.

Y'all are going to wake up one morning and Donald has enacted Marshall law. Cable news off air. Presidential address starts and the screen reveals Putin in the oval office and Trump standing beside him. What you doing next?

Centrism doesn't work. I think we've had enough of it's failures for the last decade. Time to move on from centrism and right wing democratic ideology because it doesn't work for the people.

"I swear guys, I know we lost in 2016 and in 2024, and won by a nudge in 2020 while riding a pandemic, an economic crisis and the biggest civil rights movement since the 60s, but I promise you that Americans who voted for a fascist promising them change would love to go back to Dem centrists"

How out of touch these people are to think that *anyone* would vote for Rahm Emanuel. Incredible.

You can be a right-wing extremist corrupt criminal warmonger and journalists will call you "moderate" so long as you're a Democrat.

Centrists Dems are why we have fascism.

thehill.com/homenews/hou...

Still trying to speak this bullshit into existence, politico?

Anything is true if you just make it up.

What are the chances that Democratic leaders will see this and go: "See? We NEED to go to the center and appeal to moderate Republicans. Progressives are making us look bad!"

Manchin "moderate"...hahaha hahaha... Breathes Hahahahahahahahahaha

The most gratifying part of this story is that Dems are making inroads at the state and local level, which is where the GOP started to achieve their current dominance. Progressives will win in progressive areas, but moderates can win everywhere else, and there is a lot more “everywhere else”.

Keep perfuming that turd, folks.

Well isn’t this the writing equivalent of wet shit in a truck stop bathroom. The MSM has been prattling on for decades saying the same thing, actually yes, 2 conservative parties is exactly what we need.

My fav. part of the 2020 election is when Republicans lost, they said, "we're done with extremism, we're moving towards the center and we definitely won't become more radicalized, try to start an insurrection, and fully dismantle the government." Because they knew the people love fence sitters!

lol no there isn’t.

The key to victory is Centrist Democrats— Gain the Independent voters in EVERY State !!

Uhmn,…where’s the “center” when vicious Fascism is operative, if not preponderant, on the political spectrum? Jus’ axin’ Bannon’s new friend, Gavin from California 😡

ugh no

Depends, I guess. It's owned by Axel Springer, a pretty far-right publishing house but afaik it doesn't have direct nazi connections besides the second of the founder's 5 wives being the daughter of a big SS guy. They are more socially acceptable racists but the CEO is definitely Trump brained

Finally, common sense is returning.

Um, name ID maybe?

you fucking idiot. the 2026 election is not going to be a legitimate election. republicans know they will lose so they are working hard to pre corrupt it.

They are having a being exposed over being diet fascist moment.

like Marshall Petain and Quisling had their moment.

russian warship, go fuck yourself

I mean, Harris ran as hard core centrist. She campaigned with Liz Cheney ffs!

They’re centrist? These Dems seem to be Gabbard Dems.

This isn't your average every day copium, this is... ...ADVANCED copium

The secret is truly constitutional middle of the road and conservative democrats to build a united front to reake power by winning over fed up Dems and waning Republicans.

Rahm Emanuel mentioned

You mean if people get off their collective asses and go vote that the democrats might have a chance?

If you think Rahm Emanuel is a moderate you have rocks in your head. This is the same thinking that gave us presidents Gore, Keryy, H Clinton and Harris

They are not.

Capturing the court. Replacing Civil Service with toadies. Replacing JAG and military leadership with toadies. Firing Inspectors General. Replacing FBI and DOJ with toadies. Democracy is in a race with popular opinion to see if it will exist.

Too little too late. If people really think these gangsters are going to be moved by democratic means that’s pure ‘Hopium’. Trump and his gang have too much to lose - including their liberty to succumb to legal and democratic pressure.

The only purpose of the “centrist” democrat, the Liebermans and the Sinemas and the Manchins, is so that the owners of capital only have to purchase a select few, not the whole Congress, to gum up the works, to prevent government from claiming its power to help people, to undermine good works.

Tf is a centrist democrat??? Sounds like a repub/maga to me.
