Establishment Democrats Have Nothing But Contempt for their Voter Base

Establishment Democrats Have Nothing But Contempt for their Voter Base SUBSCRIBE 👉 @hawkpodcasts Become a Member: https://www.youtube.com/@hawkpodcasts/join Following the June 23rd New York City Democratic primaries, in which three DSA and Zohran Mamdani-backed candidates swept the 7th, 10th, and 13th congressional districts, Hawk responds to the wave of establishment commentary attributing the losses to antisemitism. Commentator Sam Seder pointed out that these three districts contain some of the largest Jewish populations of any congressional districts in the country, meaning a significant portion of the winning votes came from Jewish voters themselves. Hawk addresses the deliberate conflation of Judaism and Zionism that runs through much of the establishment reaction, arguing that Zionism is a set of policies while Judaism is a religion, and that criticizing Israeli government policy is not the same as antisemitism. He points to Dan Goldman's concession speech, which invoked antisemitism, as a prime example of a losing candidate refusing to acknowledge what his own base actually voted for and why. Hawk connects the NYC results to a broader pattern of Democratic Party leadership treating its voting base with contempt, telling voters what they should want rather than listening to what they are asking for. He notes that the Democratic Party's approval rating is currently in the low 20s, lower than Donald Trump's mid-30s, and argues that the establishment's response to these primary results, dismissing rather than examining them, is exactly why that number keeps falling. #ZohranMamdani #DanGoldman #SamSeder #HakeemJeffries #ChuckSchumer #AIPAC #DSA #NewYorkPrimaries #Judaism #Zionism #Gaza #Democrats #DNCEstablishment #NYCPolitics #DemocraticSocialists #BenjaminNetanyahu #AntiSemitism #ProgressiveDemocrats #VoterBase #Hawk Timestamps 0:01 Establishment reaction to the NYC primary results calls them antisemitic 0:31 Sam Seder's point about Jewish populations in all three winning districts 1:32 The conflation of Judaism and Zionism and why it is intentional 2:44 How establishment Democrats are refusing to look at what their base voted for 3:50 Elected Democrats ignore their voters while Republicans fear theirs 5:24 Black voters in Texas also questioning their relationship with the Democratic Party 6:41 Republicans win with culture war red meat, Democrats have no equivalent play 7:55 Democratic Party approval in the low 20s, below Trump's polling floor 8:21 Voting for authoritarianism or voting for genocide as the only two choices offered 8:53 Establishment Democrats want turnout but only on their own terms SUPPORT & CONNECT WITH HAWK - Support on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/mdg650hawk - Hawk's Merch Store: https://hawkmerchstore.com - Connect on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mdg650hawk7thacct - Connect on BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/mdg650hawk.bsky.social - Connect on Substack: https://mdg650hawk.substack.com - Connect on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hawkpodcasts - Connect on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mdg650hawk - Connect on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/mdg650hawk ALL HAWK PODCASTS INFO - Additional Content Available Here: https://www.hawkpodcasts.com https://www.youtube.com/@hawkpodcasts - Listen to Hawk Podcasts On Your Favorite Platform: Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3RWeJfy Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/422GDuL YouTube: https://youtube.com/@hawkpodcasts iHeartRadio: https://ihr.fm/47vVBdP Pandora: https://bit.ly/48COaTB
