Even the New York Times is wringing its hands over the situation, here's an excerpt from their op Ed page;
"And it’s deeply ironic that Media Matters is whinging about Trump sucking up all the oxygen as Democrats simultaneously stoke the fire with Putin Derangement Syndrome, all because they (a) can’t produce a coherent explanation of their 2016 debacle, (b) can’t produce a coherent message other than the oxygen-sucking ‘We’re not Trump,’ and (c) are doing their best to strangle the most popular (working) politician in America today, as well as (d) drive his supporters from the party. No doubt what they
really want to do is put Zuckerberg at the top of the ticket. That didn’t work for Eisenhower, and is unlikely to work with Zuckerberg, who has the bucks to build a new party from scratch. I mean, why would anybody work with those clowns?"
So. Finally, a list of real Democratic objectives;
- Find a suitable explanation or at least a distraction for their terrible performance last November.
- Produce some kind of message more coherent, nevermind more actionable than 'we're not Trump'.
- Kill Bernie Sanders! Protect the left flank at any cost, including political relevance!
- Get those pesky Progressives out of the party by any means necessary, lest they hijack the spotlight and push their own agenda.
So there you have it, the very best of Democratic Party thinking from their own media mouthpiece. The only thing more bankrupt than that hot mess would be America's finances, yet one more thing they're unwilling to admit the level of their culpability for.
Finally; Zuckerberg?! Seriously? Could they BE any more out of touch?
