New ‘Brown Nose Democrats’ organisation launched

A breakout group of Democratic legislators will this week launch a new organisation seeking to “occupy the centre-ground of American politics”.

Replacing the moribund Democratic Leadership Council is a new Democratic Loyalist Council, which aims to give ‘critical support’ to President Trump, ‘providing alternatives but in a constructive and collaborative manner’.

Many of its members are formerly so-called ‘blue dog democrats’ but have now rebranded themselves as ‘brown nose democrats’. Senator Charles Schumer of New York is set to be the congressional coordinator of the Brown Nose Democrats (BND), whose logo is the traditional Democratic donkey with a brown nose.

A spokesperson for the new BND told the OMS:

"Before the mid-terms, we are keen to demonstrate that we are willing to meet the President half-way on some issues"

"For example, although we do not question the need for ICE, we believe that some of the ICE Agents can be rude at times, and their uniforms ought to be more inclusive. We are also concerned by the lack of gender and ethnic diversity amongst ICE ranks."

The creation of the BND is likely to further the schism in the Democratic party with some calling for much tougher opposition to Trumpism.

A radical fringe of the Democratic Party is to publicise its opposition to ICE by melting some frozen water in front of the capital building in a symbolic move. This has been labelled ‘incendiary’ by one Republican Congressman, Billy Hill, representative for Hillybilly county in rural Alabama:

‘There is a long-standing taboo against burning the flag in our American capital. This should also apply to melting ice, which is somehow an equivalent’. 

Other Democrats are more alarmed by Trump’s foreign policy, particularly the proposed invasion of Greenland. One hard-hitting Democratic Senator made it clear that the Trump administration had to ensure there is a proper plan for the post-invasion scenario.

“I am prepared to be tough on this and vote to withhold funding for the invasion unless I am satisfied that there is a detailed and comprehensive plan for the post-invasion stabilisation of Greenland. That may make me unpopular but I’m going to stick to my principles”

This attitude was criticised by experienced Democratic strategist, Lou Sallot, who told the OMS:

“We may soon be at war with several countries, including long-standing enemies such as Canada and Denmark, and we need to ensure that we are not tainted as being unpatriotic at a time of war”.
