Transcript
I think the Democratic party has split into two parties there's the Democratic party with beliefs and there's the Democratic party without beliefs I think that the Democratic party with beliefs is the one that's very far left and their beliefs are fundamentally rooted in concepts of socialism Marxism and they're very clear about those beliefs that traditional power structures need to be dismantled and assets and influence need to be commonly redistributed the rest of the democratic party which people call the moderate part of the party don't really know what their beliefs are when you talk to anyone in the Republican party in a leadership position you hear very
clearly what their beliefs are we saw it this week in DC every member of the cabinet that we met with and there were quite a number of them had the exact same message and the exact same set of beliefs of what this Administration stands for and what they're trying to do the problem is that because the moderates and the Democratic party have not stated a set of beliefs the party is effectively being represented by this part of the party that does have beliefs the deeply socialist Marxist beliefs and they have basically subsumed the and as a result this is why people have lost interest in the Democratic Party
