I think the $ is figuring it out. Rep Jasmine Crockett has alluded to this very point and says behind the scenes $ is lining up behind a straight white male. Is that Newsom or Shapiro or maybe Kelly?I’ve talked about my parents being working class Democrats who built a mom and pop furniture store through a lot of hard work and left two sons in the furniture business and put two other sons through pharmacy school, and one who had a career in pharmacy academia. Yet the Dems have been taken over by screeching liberal white college educated women who openly despise people like my parents, and people like my parents have fled to the Republican Party because the Democrats despise them. It’s fked. And the Democrats can’t figure out why they’re losing the working class voters they’re screeching at.
The Ds have run a white elite female and lost. They ran a black liberal female and lost. They ran the worst white male candidate since Dukakis and won.
The writing is there. Especially in 28. There is no one who captivates the Magastani’s like 47. Jr can’t. Vance can’t. And DeSantis can’t. If Ds line up behind a straight white male and run a center campaign. They win.
This means as much as they like AOC or Mayor Pete, run either of those two and lose for another 8 yrs.
