Joy Reid, longtime Democrat and former MSNBC host, voiced her disappointment in the Democratic Party during an appearance on The Breakfast Club. She feels the party has lost its focus and is too intimidated by progressive voices, like Rep. Jasmine Crockett, to effectively combat what she sees as the growing threat of fascism under Trumpism. Reid candidly shared that she's 'barely hanging on' as a Democrat, prioritizing the future for her children over party loyalty. She criticized backlash against Karine Jean-Pierre, advocating instead for effective leadership regardless of party affiliation.
I've been a Democrat since I was old enough to vote, but I'm barely hanging on, honestly, because at this point the party is not bigger than the future of my kids.
People are getting all mad at Karine Jean-Pierre for saying I'm mad at that because I'm like, at this point it isn't, who cares what the party label is?
