This guy is dumb as gently caress. He assumes a whole bunch of poo poo about the people working for trump. He also assumes they would let their differences get in the way of the fact that the GOP controls a very large portion of the government and that they have near free rein to do whatever they want.

These same worthless pundits were the ones talking about how the GOP was on the brink of collapse after the pussy tape came out and a few Rs denounced Trump. Not once throughout the race were there ever more than a few true unendorsements of Trump from the GOP. Most of those officials came crawling back while the vast majority had fallen in line long ago.

The most depressing part of this post-mortem has been the discovery that many centrist liberals cannot even imagine a world where economic prosperity returns to vast parts of the country, and the real problem is that these places just won't die quietly enough for them.

And that they sincerely believe sending more people to college will magically fix everything

quote:

the blow-up that caused the postponement of leadership elections from this Thursday to Nov. 30 – a decision made at the end of a tumultuous, two-hour meeting – is really about young lawmakers who are frustrated by a seniority system that limits their influence, African Americans who don’t feel like they have enough sway over Pelosi’s strategy and members from the heartland who feel that the dominance of coastal elites in the caucus has made it harder for them to connect with their constituents

...

For years now, there has been a problematic lack of upward mobility for younger Democrats. Consider:

The top three Democrats in leadership are 76 (Pelosi), 77 (Steny Hoyer) and 76 (Jim Clyburn). The top three Republican leaders, in contrast, are 46 (Paul Ryan), 51 (Kevin McCarthy) and 51 (Steve Scalise)

...

“There is broad angst in the Democratic caucus,” said Rep. Richard Neal (D-Mass.), speaking of no one in particular. “To stick with the same message over four bad election cycles is a mistake. I think part of it is that the messengers have to change.”

Changing the party will come from the ground up. There are no secret tricks or magic bullets, just a long road of politics.

The DNC is hosed because they're terrible at getting poo poo fixed at the state level and Keith Ellison wasn't going to fix that any better than Tom Perez is. Going full socialist isn't gonna play in rural Missouri, Indiana, Wisconsin in 2018. You gotta work up to that I'm afraid.

Sure that's certainly a possibility but I was explaining why Bernie is currently so well liked. It is entirely possible he would have droned some browns too once he got into office and his popularity would have most likely been affected too
