Happy Friday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. Srappanzeeh did his best haiku whilst in a Cool Ranch Doritos and unlimited Orange Dreamsicle micro-trance.
Back when the Democrats were a formidable political party, it was easy to identify their core constituencies, mostly because of the egregious pandering they did to get their votes. Last year’s presidential election made them a little wobbly after two of those constituencies — black men and Latinos — became Trump voters. The Dem elites had relied on their voting bloc remaining intact in perpetuity, and the change in their status quo set them to spinning out of control.
They should be wrapping up a painful journey through the five stages grief, or at least be deep into it. Instead, they’ve set up camp in stage one: denial. That’s really not a good place from which to plan a political comeback: a focused one, anyway. They’ve been flailing a lot, but these past few days have really been out of control.
This is from something my friend Stephen Green wrote yesterday:
It can’t be easy, striving for relevance as members of a political party so far out of the mainstream that they can’t even golf clap for a cancer kid getting his presidential Make a Wish moment on national TV or for the widow and daughters of a slain veteran.
When you stand for nothing aside from looting the Treasury — any excuse will do, including chemically castrating children — and opposing the Bad Orange Man, you’ve got to figure out ways to distract the American public from your complete moral vacancy.
What they did was record a video that will make you want to take a shower after seeing it and bleach everything in the room where you watched it. Just as with their infamously bad memes, these video attempts by the Dems to connect with the people are beyond painful. They think they’re cool, though. It’s like an entire political movement full of people who didn’t have friends in high school. Or get good grades.
