The memo has gone out. Democrats are going to blame all their Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) members’ past anti-American, anti-Constitution, and anti-common-sense declarations on the inexperience and impulsiveness of youth. Ah, those crazy kids. Political commentator Geraldo Rivera says all that insane woke stuff was just the mutterings of children; they didn’t really mean any of it.
Here’s more. (READ)
Geraldo dismisses past woke and radical positions by radical Democrats as crazy stuff they said as "kids."
"They're running away from those statements they may have made in the past."
"They're not all of a sudden gonna become commies."
"Their statements as kids were ridiculous. But that's not what they really are as grownups."
Just some wacky kids who are now grown up and didn't really mean anything they said.
This may be the most comical attempt to whitewash the woke we've heard yet. Just excellent work here, Geraldo.
Rivera assures us that these commie ‘kids’ have not grown up to become adult commies. (WATCH)

Unless it's said by a Conservative or Republican. In that case whatever was said is unforgivable and permanent.

‘Journalists’ and their fellow Democrats are known to dredge up old high school yearbooks and interview playground pals for political dirt on Republicans.

Apparently, all the DSA and woke candidates were able to circumvent election age restrictions and serve in office between juice boxes and episodes of Paw Patrol.
Kids?? They made those statements while serving in the State legislature- not as kids.

Some of them said this stuff when they were 47 year old kids.

Those wacky kids! (AOC was elected to congress at age 29)

"kids", who happen to be mayors and members of congress. People in their late 20s and 30s are not kids.

They were barely out of Pampers.
The destructive wave of woke is just a joke to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her DSA buds. (WATCH)
Communism 1 was crazy.

Communism 2, now with tons of islam, is going to be so much better. pic.twitter.com/lrXn44BKb1
We've refined our message from hating white people to just hating Jews and straight white men, which of course is going to resonate a lot better...

The media sanitizing "woke 1" is going to employ stratospheric levels of gaslighting. Already is. pic.twitter.com/pzjGGLkWjR

And ‘journalists’ like Jon Karl of ABC News will do it with a smile and a laugh track.
Posters say the ‘kid’ commies of yesterday are the adult commies of today. The difference is that they now have to hide who they are to get votes.
They're not shedding their views. They are hiding their views because it's insanely unpopular with normal people.

A slight majority of Democrats voted for communists in the primaries. They can't win the general election without Independents, and an enthusiastic Democratic base. Which they won't have if the continue running as communists. They now must hide their positions.

One doesn’t go from wanting to abolish everything about America to suddenly embracing the flag.
Posters say Geraldo hasn’t recovered from the trauma of Al Capone’s vault and a chair to the face.
🧐 I see Gerry’s falling deeper into his out-of-touch-itis dementia resulting from all of that chairs-to-the-head brain damage he sustained decades ago.

🤨🥴
Geraldo hosted one of those shows you’d watch when staying home sick from school back in the day, like The Price Is Right.
— Jonathan Crump (@RealCrumpster) August 11, 2026
Now he’s just a nut job.
Kids saying woke stuff, but all grown up now — has to be the lamest excuse I’ve heard yet regarding pivoting from certain views.
Geraldo still holding true to form... Clown Show. pic.twitter.com/bohU79Qn08

We will look back in the future and realize Geraldo was only 83 when he said these stupid things.

Yes, back when Geraldo Rivera was just a wee lad with a slingshot in his back pocket.
