Mark Halperin turned the tables on liberal Democratic former Nassau County Executive Laura Curran on Wednesday after she accused MAGA of bullying members of the Republican Party. Halperin was quick to remind Curran that the Democrats and specifically, Nancy Pelosi have long bullied Democrats who rfuse to toe the party line on any issue they refuse to go along with.That i why in recent years Democrats have left the party and then become Republicans or Independents.
ABC reported that MAGA supporters have been pressuring GP Senators to confirm Trump’s nominees for his cabinet. Curran then accused MAGA supporters of being bullies, which led Halperin to cite examples of bullying by Democrats.
Curran said:
“So, as a Democrat, I’m looking at a lot of this from the outside of the Republican Party, and it seems like there’s a lot of bullying going on of elected officials to be with MAGA, even if that’s not where their heart is. And when one is bullied, one becomes resentful. So two things could happen: either they rebel, or they just suck it up and become more resentful and miserable.”
“The strategies of the MAGA people are obviously very smart. Look what’s happened with Pete Hegseth’s turnaround. But also it’s not just those elite-type folks. It’s also the people out there, the Charlie Kirks and all of those folks, who … got the trolls and the bots and all of this stuff, guns trained on people who don’t behave. So just play this out: if things go really bad, what do you think would happen to Trump and MAGA?”

Halperin then added:
“And it’s not just Nancy Pelosi, Laura. As you know, you had three years of failed policy on immigration, three years of failure to deal with inflation, you had failed … and you had a failed Afghanistan withdraw, and then you had the logical conclusion: well, maybe our very old, infirm president should get a primary challenge. Well, why didn’t he, except from Dean Phillips? Because bullies — bullies who worked for Joe Biden — called people who got out of line and said, ‘Get back in line or you’ll have a price to pay.””
“So I say, with respect, sure, there are bullies in MAGA, but there are plenty of bullies in the Democratic Party, and they arguably cost the Democrats the White House … By bullying people into silence, they allowed Joe Biden to keep the nomination up until it was too late, in the view of the vice president’s people, belatedly, to replace him and win. So I think Sean’s right that they’ll stay loyal to Donald Trump, but I also don’t think one party has a monopoly on bullying.”
Former Democratic North Carolina Rep. Tricia Cotham who joined the Republican Party in 2023 acknowledged the bullying by Democrats that forced her to make the switch:
“The party wants to villainize anyone who has free thought, free judgement, has solutions and wants to get to work to better our state.”
“If you don’t do exactly what the Democrats want you to do, they will try to bully you. They will try to cast you aside.”
