The Democratic Party didn't get taken over, it opened the door. People openly citing Marx, mourning the collapse of communist regimes, and calling to seize private property, abolish borders, and gut the separation of powers get no real pushback from leadership. The author's evidence: only eight House Democrats would sign a pledge saying they're capitalist, not socialist, and proud of America. Two hundred twelve wouldn't. To him that's fear of a primary challenge outweighing everything the party used to stand for. When Bill Maher is saying it out loud and James Carville has walked away, leadership's silence is the loudest answer. This isn't a policy disagreement. It's abandonment, and the door is still open.
