The Democrats party is holding its primaries today, Channel 14 reports. Mati Tuchfeld, the channel's political desk head, warned that the party is a 'bunch of crazies, hallucinations, and extremists' and accused its members of being 'refuseniks who did everything to dismantle the country.' Tuchfeld stressed that if MK Gadi Eisenkot becomes the next prime minister, this group would serve as ministers.
The Democrats party is holding its primaries on Monday, July 20, with over 112,000 members eligible to vote digitally, according to Channel 14. Earlier today, N12's Amit Segal analyzed the primary process as more radical than Meretz's past primaries, citing frontrunner candidates such as Gaby Lasky, known for representing Palestinian stone-throwers, and Naor Narkis, who advocates bulldozing religious institutions. Mati Tuchfeld, head of Channel 14's political desk, issued a sharp warning about the party's direction, calling it a 'bunch of crazies, hallucinations, and extremists' and accusing its members of being 'refuseniks who did everything to dismantle the country.' Tuchfeld specifically warned that if former IDF chief of staff and current MK Gadi Eisenkot becomes prime minister, this group would enter the government as ministers. Tuchfeld's comments come amid ongoing political fragmentation, with the Democrats party positioning itself as a centrist-left bloc. The primaries are expected to set the party's slate for the next election, with implications for both the center-left and right-wing blocs.
