This Donald thing is starting to blow up.

109. If We Go Back...

...to 1992, I don't remember Bill carrying on like that. He was also the lone wolf telling the DNC as early as last summer to scrap the identity politics thing and talk directly to the white working class. He was ignored with predictable results.

Numbers don't lie. The party has become almost an exclusively coastal entity. That won't work. It didn't work in 2016.

I'm wondering who that new standard bearer should be. I already mentioned Cordray and Ryan. There's Sherrod Brown but he can't even bring himself to comb his hair and show up in a clean suit to speak on the Senate floor. What about Mark Dayton? He's a billionaire, easily. There's O'Malley but he can't seem to get traction outside of Maryland. I can definitely tell you it isn't a Californian as attractive as it would be to nominate Kamala Harris or Jerry Brown or Tony Villaraigosa if for no other reason than to collect the millions they would undoubtedly raise. Maybe that's what the party will do - punt the ball and line the coffers. The DNC and DSCC are broke. Schumer was bleeding from his eyes talking about it.
