When I look around the Democratic party, I see old people unwilling to change, from Biden and the DNC all the way down to my parent’s friends in their little rich white suburban neighborhood with a median age of 57 and a median net worth of $3,000,000. People who are firmly entrenched in the liberalism of the 80s and 90s and who are terrified of Trump and terrified of progressives and think it’s all insanity that also doesn’t really affect them.
This is the Democrats’ race to lose. All they have to do to lose it is stick their fingers in their ears and fight like hell for “Business as usual.” Which is exactly what they’re doing.

Well, time for four more years of Trump, I guess.
