Jake Johnson — Elizabeth Warren: Democrats Will Keep Losing Until the Entire Party Is 'Willing to Take on the Billionaire Class'

"Money is going to drown our democracy, and if we don't start fighting back, and fighting back more aggressively, then we are part of the problem as well."
Yep.

If Warren was a man they would find child porn on her computer or campaign funds used to pay for bordellos in DC. So I'm guessing some other trumped up (no pun intended) charges will be invented.

This is why I say that Democrats will make no gains in November. And why Trump will be re-elected in 2020.

Establishment Democrats are more Republican than are Republicans, and they work hard to keep out genuinely progressive Democrats. Therefore in November, Democrat voters will stay home.

Not that it will matter, since the elections are rigged so that establishment Democrats always get re-installed no matter what.

Establishment Democrats like House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Minority Whip Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) have vowed that when they are “re-elected” in November, they will make deficit reduction their top priority.

Since no one dares cut spending for war and weapons, this means that establishment Democrats will work to cut Medicare, Food Stamps, Social Security, and so on. Nancy Pelosi made this her top priority when she held the Speaker’s gavel from Jan 2007-Jan 2011. Pelosi says she’ll do it again if the Democrats win the House in November.

Establishment Democrats are as out-of-touch with their base as is Disney / Lucasfilm with Star Wars fans.

However there is one difference...

Star Wars fans are no longer paying to see excrement from Disney / Lucasfilm, whereas establishment Democrats get paid by the rich and the bankers to sh*t on their constituents. Establishment Democrats win no matter what.

He's already accused her of falsifying her racial identity on her college application... he calls her "Pocahontas"...

Trump doesn't have a good record on this sort of thing. He also accused or at least strongly insinuated that Obama was not qualified for the office of president on account of being foreign-born — which was completely bogus.

The Establishment is the Democrat's base. And the Republican's. The competition between them is the illusion of democracy and the quest for personal gain.

Tom, have you heard about LeRoy Wiley Gresham? I first heard about him a couple of weeks ago, and I haven't stopped thinking about him since. (Yes, it's off topic.)

I had not heard of him before.
