MSNOW contributor Donny Deutsch is not happy about the currently unfolding takeover of the Democratic Party by the Democratic Socialists of America.
During a recent exchange with Stephanie Ruhle, Deutsch lamented the fact that the DSA’s focus on Israel, combined with their antisemitic views, is going to take focus off of the important issues, just as the 2026 midterms are approaching.
He also predicts that Republicans are going to use this to paint the entire Democratic Party as wildly out of step with the public.
Breitbart News has details:
Thursday on MS NOW’s “Money, Power, Politics,” panelist Donny Deutsch said, “Democrats have gone off the rails” with anti-American socialism.Host Stephanie Ruhle said, “Even though voters are unhappy with Trump, they’re still leaning Republican. Do you think that if the economy doesn’t improve by November, it can change? Do Democrats need to figure out their messaging on the economy? Because for whatever reason, Republicans still seem to have this stronghold that ‘We’re good for business.’”Deutsch said, “Well, Democrats have gone off the rails. They’re not even focused — what matters to people is affordability, and Democrats right now are focused on two things: They’re focused on Anti-Semitism and Socialism.”Ruhle said, “Not all Democrats.”Deutsch said, “Not all, but that’s where the energy in the party is. When you look at the two candidates that got elected in the last week, one of them talks about that firebombing in Colorado was not Anti-Semitic. I mean, would not acknowledge that when there was a firebombing of people holding a vigil for hostages by Hamas. Another candidate in New York, who has been well-documented, was at an October 8 rally, a pro-Hamas, pro-Palestinian rally.”He added, “This is ridiculous. And they’re both running on anti-American, socialistic, let’s blow up — let’s abolish ICE, let’s abolish prisons, let’s abolish everything, let’s abolish the police. It’s insane.

Deutsch released his own video on the same topic just a few days ago.
I don’t often find myself in agreement with Deutsch, but I think he gets pretty much all of this right.
Democrats are celebrating DSA wins as huge victories, but so far they’re just taking blue seats and making them even bluer. They’re also failing to factor in how this looks to the rest of the country.
