I am including a link to an article that says everything I
have been saying for decades, maybe not in the same words, but generally
speaking.
The democrats have been clueless for a long time. This
article is couched that the Democrats have sucked up to Wall Street and more,
yet overall it says the Democrats quit being Democrats and to me that is
basically why I have been calling them clueless elitists.
I am including the article for reference. Since I am a
conservative I tend to fear too much government spending especially with the
enormous debt we are carrying so I cannot jump on the policies in the article.
Yet it is the Democrats actually trying to do something again and some of the
ideas are workable if managed well.
Republicans whether Reagan, RINO or MAGA will immediately
denounce these ideas because they are now incompetent when it comes to governing.
That is the one talking point Democrats have had for years that is correct.
Otherwise and this article calls it out indirectly neither party has cared for
the vast majority of Americans for an extremely long time. The article even
references how Trump won in 2016 by appealing to the working class in the rust
belt. Of course that is well known history, yet people especially Democrats
have glossed over that for years.
So have some people in the elite DC circles and elite press
circles starting to wake up to what has been obvious for decades. We need new
parties. On occasion I have said if either the Republicans or Democrats get it
together and change then that would work too.
Apparently or maybe that may be happening if you read this
article. I need to see more. Again as a conservative I would rework some of
their ideas, but at least they are doing more than lip service and whining.
They are putting some work into change.
We will see what happens. Maybe we can claw something together
from the ashes of the Republican party that Trump is burning down. And finally go
forward putting the people of this country first.
Whether liberal or conservative we need to get money out of
politics which includes as the article mentions getting rid of super PACS and
even more, stricter rules on lobbyists, (if you try to eliminate them you will
get too many lawsuits around freedom of speech) and stop gerrymandering all
together. That has done more to prop up the duopoly and stifled true
representation of the people. Make the candidates earn their seat and we will get
better governance and policy.

phony Democrat got blown out of the water — and that's terrifying for Trump |
