The Ol' Democrat Trifecta:

  1. Wastes public resources
  2. To do something that will not help the situation at all
  3. That will alienate the vast majority of their voting base for the supposed benefit of like 100 rich assholes

i think they are at the point where the party is so insulated from their base by fifteen layers of consultants that they think those 100 rich assholes are their entire constituency.

but as we know they are right because each of those 100 has tendrils weaving through tens of thousands of "influencers" and "thought leaders" through ownership and patronage.

who in turn have tendrils through millions more shitlibs tuned into this stuff because it makes them feel smart and "informed"

still not enough though for a dying party in a dying nation in a dying system
