Democrat Strategist: The Left Has A ‘Wokeness,’ ‘Moral Condescension’ Problem

Democrat strategist Julian Epstein said late this week that the political Left lost the 2024 election because they are too woke and they are condescending to others.

Epstein made the remarks during a Friday interview on Fox News while discussing the course correction that he would like to see his party make.

“We have spoken many times in the last year or two about what the Democrats are doing wrong. And Democrats in their postmortem are sort of talking about these things,” he said. “They had the wrong candidate and their policies were wrong.”

He said Democrats needed to recruit “better candidates and they need to move back to the center on economic and cultural policies.”

“But my point has been that there is a deeper cultural problem with the Left and with the Democratic Party,” he continued. “It’s a party of wokeness and it’s a party of moral condescension. So on, you know, your previous segment where you’re talking about immigration, what the Left has done is they have said to people, ‘If you disagree with us on open borders, then you’re a bad person.'”

“And what that has done is it has caused the Left to shut its ears and to stop listening to people,” he said. “And it’s made it a lot dumber. It makes them feel good amongst themselves. It helps them achieve social status amongst fellow progressives.”
