The Trump Administration recently announced that the G7 summit will be held at his Doral property.  Instead of picking a location based on security priorities and one that strains local infrastructure and traffic the least, the President once again chose to use his office to enrich himself and help his failing businesses.  He continues to profit off the presidency through numerous conflicts of interest and has wasted tens of millions of dollars traveling to his own properties and golf courses.  Taxpayer dollars will flow right into his pockets, and security will be paid for by Miami-Dade taxpayers.

Today, the Miami-Dade Democratic Party called on the Miami-Dade Republican Party and all of the Miami-Dade Republican elected officials to denounce, in no uncertain terms, the horrific video played at the American Priorities Festival hosted at Trump Doral Resort. The video, which played on each day of the conference, depicted the President gruesomely shooting members of the media and others, including former President Barack Obama. 

“You would think that after Pulse and Parkland, those who attended this event would be shocked and appalled by the suggestion of the President of the United States committing a mass shooting. Instead, they decided to take selfies and made no mention of what we all know they saw” said Executive Director Aaron Bos-Lun.

The Blue Gala / Blue Bash taking place in Miami Beach on Saturday, November 2nd. We have been busy ramping up so that we can turnout an additional 200K Democratic voters locally in 2020. This build out of the team depends on funding. If you are able to join us for the full evening, including reception and dinner, tickets start at $500. We have also worked to provide a more affordable option at $75 which will give you the chance to hear the main speakers and be part of the award ceremony for our 2019 Blue Gala honorees, starting at 9pm. This ticket also includes open bar and dessert.

The Miami-Dade Democratic Party has endorsed David Richardson for Miami Beach Commission Group 6.

Al oír a los republicanos acusar a sus contrarios de "socialistas", sale a la luz el deseos de tender una cortina de humo para confundir. ¿Por qué son estos ataques tan exagerados y extremistas contra los demócratas? Los republicanos nos acusan hoy de “socialistas” por cualquier cosa.

Causa mucha confusión entre los hispanos, todavía acostumbrándonos al nuevo partido republicano, y sobre todo procedentes de países que sufrieron dictaduras comunistas.

El partido de Trump celebra a Rusia y a Corea del Norte mientras que ataca a la OTAN. Sus fieles defienden al presidente cuando Trump pide el encarcelamiento de su rival electoral (Clinton), cuando llama a la prensa “el enemigo del pueblo” o cuando impugna la independencia de las cortes. A la hora de culpar a alguien por los problemas mayores del país, culpa a los inmigrantes. El lenguaje demagógico de Trump, gobernando por decretos emitidos por Twitter, es el de un autócrata populista.
