Has the dike finally sprung a leak? Are Democrats about to abandon the good ship Socialism as it founders?
A New York Democratic Congressman has had it with Chuck Schumer and the radicalization of the Democratic Party.
From the Free Beacon:
Assemblyman Dov Hikind, who represents Schumer's home borough of Brooklyn in the New York legislature, penned an open letter to the senator after receiving a campaign mailer soliciting financial contributions. Hikind said the mailer attacked the "hard right" while omitting "vital information."
In his letter, which was posted on the assemblyman's Facebook page, Hikind castigated Schumer for promising to fight "for Democratic values" while providing little in means ndersubstance.
"Senator Schumer, in your letter you promise to fight for Democratic values and go on at great length to fully villainize the current administration, but you left out certain facts that my fellow Democrats, to say nothing of all Americans, should also be aware of," Hikind wrote.
The assemblyman lambasted Schumer and national Democrats for downplaying the impact the Trump administration has had in fostering economic growth
"You forgot to tell us about the economy. As good as it’s been, economists expect even more growth through the end of the year. That’s very good news," Hikind wrote. "You forgot to tell us about unemployment, which is lower than it has been in decades, while economic confidence is at a 17-year high."
Hikind also expressed support for the tax cuts proposed by the president and enacted by congressional Republicans.
"You forgot to tell us about tax cuts. I’m part of the middle class and now I’m getting a little extra in my paycheck," he wrote. "I’m happy about that and so are tens of millions of Americans, Senator."

I wouldn't hold out a lot of hope. The Left doesn't permit apostasy in the ranks, and this man will quickly be purged. Just wait and watch.
