The ‘Dem’ platform for 2020 will read like an Obituary.

Just like 25 percent of their voters.

One of the benefits of the Trump administration will be that new, powerful, accomplished faces will be presented to the American people. New faces that, generally, are Republican.

These folks, I expect, will deliver a tremendous shot to the status quo and will appear as accomplished, knowledgeable grownups who desire to see the USA regain its luster, glory, power and prestige.

And citizens of the US will be introduced to them. And over the next several administrations, I expect we’ll see some of them at the top of the ticket.

Sarah Palin was a spark plug for lots of folks. But she was just one person and it was hard to stand up against the onslaught with a spineless so-and-so like McCain in her corner.

With Trump and administration FILLED with hosses, I expect there will be a long-lasting reputation change and lots of new, fresh, accomplished individuals to go up against the old folks of the Democrat party.

As of now, the Dems have no bench. And with Trump and republicans owning so much of federal, state and local governments, I don’t see how the Dems will develop much of a new reputation.

OMG!! Lightning just struck and the altar veil is riven. Dingy Harry just spoke the truth for the first time in his miserable, corrupt career.

In fact, with Trump at the wheel, why not have that swamp drained by 2018?
It would take 60 seats in the Senate for the Republicans to be “at the wheel.” And even then, “the Republicans” and “President Trump” are not one and the same.

In 2018 the Republicans must recruit and support strong candidates to oppose the 25 incumbent Democrats up for reelection. Ten of those from states Trump won. Doesn’t make it a cakewalk to beat them, but . . .

If the Republicans can’t gain serious ground in 2018, when half the Senate Democrats (plus one) face re-election, how are they to retain control of the Senate in ’20 and ’22 when the Democrats only have to defend about a dozen seats and the Republicans have to defend 21?

Booker’s degrees mean nothing. Just more affirmative action, like Julian Castro.
