Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez one of the 7 "Dems" voted FOR ICE funding explains why...

Confused, incoherent, craven, utterly devoid of vision. It just cannot be overemphasized that the pundits glazing this woman as the future of our party (many of whom did the same for Eric Adams) are unserious and should not be listened to.

She's an opportunist who supports Trump more than her (R) predecessor. I've informed her that they way she votes decides how I will vote.

We have open primaries and I hope we get someone who's not a MAGA to vote for on the ballot.

"Looks like she is on her way to strip a house of copper wire"...

Gold.

So, the goal is to elect more of these "'Democrats"?

Seriously?
