A prominent Iranian-American Democrat just delivered the reality check her party desperately needed – and it's about time someone on the left finally chose America over partisan politics.
Moj Mahdara, a Democratic entrepreneur and founding member of the Iranian Diaspora Collective, absolutely torched Democratic Party lawmakers Sunday for their knee-jerk opposition to President Trump's decisive military action against Iran. Her message was crystal clear: it's time for Democrats to grow up and support America's interests instead of reflexively opposing everything Trump does.
'I think that it is imperative that the Democratic Party wake up and get past their dislike of Donald Trump and their feelings of international conflicts,' Mahdara declared, cutting through the partisan fog that has blinded so many on the left.
Think about that for a moment. Here's someone who actually understands the Iranian threat firsthand – not some career politician sitting safely in Washington – telling Democrats they're more concerned with opposing Trump than protecting American lives and interests.
'The Democratic Party needs to wake up and get past their dislike of Donald Trump,' Mahdara stated, delivering a truth bomb that should resonate with every patriotic American regardless of party affiliation.
This is exactly what we've been saying for years: the radical left's Trump Derangement Syndrome has become so severe that they'll literally side with America's enemies rather than admit Trump made the right call. It's pathetic, dangerous, and frankly un-American.
While establishment Democrats rush to condemn decisive action against the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism, an actual Iranian-American is begging them to put country before party. The irony is staggering, but not surprising to anyone who's been paying attention.
President Trump has consistently shown he won't let Iran threaten American lives or interests – unlike his predecessor who shipped pallets of cash to the mullahs in Tehran. That's real leadership, and it's about time more Democrats recognized it.
How many more Iranian-Americans need to speak out before the Democratic Party finally listens to the voices of freedom over the demands of their radical base?
