The Left is completely melting down. They may even split the party.
And now MSNBC’s Joy Reid could lose her job after this Democrat turned on her.
By all measures, the presidential race should’ve at least been close.
For weeks leading up to election night, we were treated to Democrat after Democrat saying that Kamala may even sweep it and take Iowa with her too.
Of course, we all know how the story goes. Trump blasted Kamala, winning the biggest victory for Republicans in decades.
And now as they flail to find the reason, they are turning on each other.
Rep. Ritchie Torres, D-N.Y., came down hard on MSNBC host Joy Reid for her remarks targeting Latino men who backed President-elect Trump in last week’s election.
On Friday, Reid voiced frustration over various voting groups, including White women and men of all ages, who didn’t propel Vice President Kamala Harris to victory.
She then zeroed in on Latino men, highlighting that 55% of them cast their ballots for Trump, as per NBC News exit polls.
“Also, Latino men, who, despite the utter disrespect shown by Trump and his promise to deport some of your mixed-class, mixed-status families, most of them voted in a 55% majority to make the deportations happen,” Reid said.
Stop scapegoating, shaming, and scolding working-class Latinos.
A patronizing paternalistic progressivism will not attract working-class Latino men back to the Democratic Party. It will repel them. https://t.co/91qX5zNMNG

“You all voted with Stephen Miller and David Duke and against your own sisters who chose Kamala Harris with 60% of their votes.”
“So you own everything that happens to your mixed-status families and to your wives, sisters, and abuelas from here on in,” Reid declared to Latino men.
Torres, the first openly gay Afro-Latino member of Congress, didn’t hold back in calling out Reid on social media.
“Stop scapegoating, shaming, and scolding working-class Latinos,” Torres told the liberal host Monday night on X.
“A patronizing paternalistic progressivism will not attract working-class Latino men back to the Democratic Party. It will repel them,” he cautioned.
Harris supporters within the Democratic Party and legacy media continue to struggle with Trump’s sweeping victory, where he captured all seven battleground states and increased support across various demographic groups, including minority voters.
And this issue is only going to be exacerbated as they desperately try to save face.
