In a nutshell

[Michael Press]

| The most amazing thing about this election is how the curtains
| have been drawn back and we see people for what they really are.
| I have never seen anything like it.
|
| Most of the political class thrives on deception and
| role-playing. For some reason, President Trump causes them to
| blurt out revealing comments and take actions, which reveal who
| they really are. It's almost like they can't help it.
|
| National Review and The Weekly Standard could have simply talked
| about policy and critiqued some of Trump's platform without
| anyone thinking a thing about it. Instead, they went all in with
| mocking and demonizing him and continue to do so today. Why did
| they do that?
|
| What keeps Ben Sasse and Paul Ryan posing as virtuous nebbishes
| who look down on their own voters? Why does John McCain tour the
| world like some second rate Bond villain, making snarky comments
| about the President and hanging out with dubious foreign
| characters?
|
| The democrats are in an even worse position, because they have
| been revealed not only as elitists but as completely insane. I
| don't care whether we are talking about Hillary, or Tom Perez, or
| Debbie Wasserman-Schultz; they come off as completely unhinged.
|
| It's the most amazing thing in politics I have ever seen.

They've written off the sensible lefty vote (Truman/Kennedy) in order to go all in to garner the sandals/candles crowd. Of course, it'll backfire--2010, 2014, 2016--and as thus, it should be encouraged.

Why do they continue to do this? My guess is that bombthrowing lefties give better head.

All those who never got over seeing that it is not all about them.

the Democratic "leadership" is solidly behind rich people. The Dems are now the party of Buffett, Cuban, Arianna Huffington and the like. The so-called sandals/candles crowd is the Bernie wing and the Dem leaders are opposed to them. That's why they rigged the primary in favor of Hillary.

From your vantage point those rich Democrats are closest to you, so they would be your "sensible" leftys....although how sensible can they be if they've run the party into the ground, losing the huge majorities in the House and Senate, losing the Presidency to the worst candidate ever...no, the 2nd worst, apparently.

It's the party of the Clintons, of Rahm Emanuel. It's the party that was reluctant to chase Weiner out.

Meanwhile the actual left is continually insulted. Left-leaning candidates don't get funding because the "leadership" wants them to lose.

Where do you get your info? You should ask me, instead.

Eric, I know there's a moderate--'principled'--left, and you're good people. However, you can't tell moderates exist from the media, and I'm talking everyone from FOX to Rolling Stone. And I don't think they exist in D.C.

So the concept of having human rights and the like is that unhinged?

At that point, if I'm Trump, I disown completely and publicly on July 4th, 2017, the self-evident truths and the inalienable rights -- that all are not created equal and have no right to at least liberty and pursuit of happiness.
