Julian Epstein is not a conservative. In addition to being a Democratic strategist, he is the former Democrat Chief Counsel to the House Judiciary Committee. Yet during a recent appearance on FOX News, Epstein suggested that the Democratic party is ‘becoming like a cult.’
Epstein’s remarks were largely motivated by the DNC summer conference which opened with a ‘land acknowledgement’ and echoed other progressive ideas about immigration and crime.
Like many people, Epstein seems bewildered by the party’s inability or outright refusal to correct course in any way.

Julian Epstein: Dems Are a ‘Cult’ that Worships ‘Weird Progressive Idols’Discussing the DNC’s Summer Meeting in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Epstein said, “I think what I was watching yesterday looked more like a Star Trek convention. This is a party that has almost no self-awareness. The approval numbers, two-thirds of Americans disapprove of the party. Their fundraising numbers, the voter registration numbers are all dropping through the floor as the party associates itself with things like gender sterilization for minors, open borders, high crime.The party is almost becoming like a cult that worships these weird progressive idols. As and then sort of the only thing they have to offer is these insults, like Tim Walsh body shaming the president, you know, Tim Walz going around body shaming to me is like the Taliban criticizing someone for religious intolerance.”He added, “This is a party that just stands for negativity and for aligning itself on issues that are far to the left of the median voter and not, as Carolyn, I think, points out, putting forward any ideas that any of the voters, certainly in the middle, can relate to in any way.
