The Democratic Party continues to flounder as even its long-time devotees are questioning their allegiances, particularly in the case of Kamala Harris. Doug Schoen, a seasoned Democratic strategist, has declared that he cannot, in good conscience, support her in an upcoming electoral showdown. Schoen’s critiques highlight a worrying trend among Democrats: a mass exodus toward a more sensible approach that often resembles conservatism.
During a panel discussion on Fox, Schoen, who has been a Democrat for decades, unveiled his discontent with Harris’s ever-shifting political positions. As the party has moved further left, many are left scratching their heads, wondering what a vote for Harris truly represents. Schoen pointed out that unlike Harris’s vague and undefined promises of a “new way forward,” former President Trump’s tax-cutting and deregulation strategies are far more aligned with what the American public desires. It’s a fresh take on a tired political landscape, and voters are starting to take notice.
The issue of Harris’s record on foreign policy has also surfaced, with Schoen expressing doubts about her commitment to critical alliances, particularly regarding Israel. This marks a seismic shift since discussions about support for Israel used to be a cornerstone of Democratic values. It raises the question of how many more party loyalists like Schoen will abandon ship as they realize the Democratic Party is not the party of old but a far-left entity swirling in radical policies and empty rhetoric.
As pundits on the left scramble to label dissenters as traitors or irrelevant, it seems they have forgotten their own history. Democrats have long mocked figures like Liz Cheney for being out of touch, yet now they’re embracing her support for Harris as a badge of honor. This behavior reeks of desperation and points towards an identity crisis within the party, revealing that Democrats are more interested in maintaining power than upholding their principles. It’s a recipe for decline as more voters, disillusioned by the current rhetoric and radical elements of the party, look elsewhere.

History shows that a shift is already in motion, as influential figures like Elon Musk and Robert F. Kennedy, along with many in the minority communities, are increasingly leaning conservative. The Democratic Party has failed to maintain its once-stronghold over these groups, as they notice how practical issues such as economic stability and free speech take precedence over ideological purity. As Schoen’s sentiments resonate with individuals who are contemplating their political affiliations, it becomes clear that a sizeable movement away from the Democratic framework is underway.
The once-familiar landscape is now filled with uncertainty, and figures like Schoen and Dershowitz serve as indicators that the middle ground is eroding under a barrage of radical leftism. As more Americans come to see Harris for what she truly represents—a departure from common sense—Democrats will have to reckon with their rapidly dwindling support. They may soon find themselves standing alone, abandoned by their former loyalists in a quest for a reality that, increasingly, resembles conservatism.
