All rational people have already left the Democrat Party.
Here is you answer:
What floats at the top of a cesspool is never cream.
It is in their genetic make up, whether a mayor or POTUS candidate. And has been for decades.
No younger ones with national recognition and drawing power.
There’s only one possible one and I’m not naming it.
And then that nasty act is used to keep you in line.
Rather the Dem party left all rational and honest people.
The question sorta answers itself, doesn’t it?/?
No, since moral corruption leads to physical corruption...
By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? .... a bad tree cannot bear good fruit.
The real power of both political parties lies behind the scenes. The people you know of, but never really see in action pulling the visible levers of power.
We tend to believe our elected leaders are really those in charge, but the truth lies in the bills presented to congress.
Who writes those? It is often not the elected representatives or even their staff. So who? Hint - the people with real power write the bills. This is why Pelosi cannot talk about the bills she presents intelligently. Sure, she spouts talking points, but she knows nothing of the minutia.
Perhaps those who truly wrote the legislation are the ones with real power?
This is why Trump is such an existential threat to those with real power. He is a free agent and is not part of their world. He not only does not answer to the power base, he opposes them often. He is the most independent leader of my lifetime. Is it any wonder those who own congress and their puppets (the media) hate him so?
Another valid point about the importance of the media and how those with real power use them. Outside of Trump, the media control the narrative in our country. Our leaders in congress respond to the media news cycle predictably instead of the other way around - leaders propose and journalist dissect and report.
Therefore, whomever controls the media controls a large part of the narrative. It is quite effective for those who write the bills.......
Wow, I am cynical this morning.
Isn't that the same as asking why we no longer see unicorns? Because there have never been any. Just sayin.
Does a bear **** in the woods??....only clean rat was discarded this cycle....
My personal view is DIFFERENT.
The Democrat party has become RADICALIZED. It is really a socialist, pro illegal immigration, pro baby killing, pro government take over of healthcare, pro radical environmentalist,anti-Israel, anti-God, pro-tax and spending party. They know that this will not fly with the average American voter. If this were attractive, why couldn’t Bernie Sanders win?
So, how to mask this agenda?
They have to trot out a candidate who looks “moderate” ( even when deep inside, he isn’t ). Hence, oldies like Biden and Hillary, who have some connection to the past when the Democrats had at least a semblance of moderation and sanity.
They want to be able to fool the electorate enough to win ( and cheat ) in the general elections and then AFTER they win, show their true colors.
Obama was such a person. He said he was against gay marriage for instance UNTIL he changed his mineafter being elected.
If you read Saul Alinsky, that was his plan and they are using his playbook.
Unfortunately for them, they can’t find a young candidate today who looks moderate. Hence, they push to the forefront, someone who can be their puppet — an old, demented blast from the past named Joe Biden.
Because they don’t have much to select from look at the last two coke nose Bill and stoner Obama and look how that turned out.
The party is dead the independents will replace them.
How is what you describe not a cesspool?
Well ... unless you think the comparison is unfair to any fetid pool of feces.
I've been pondering how to answer...I think I found it!
The Democrat Party Bureaucracy is no different from the former Communist Party Bureaucracy in the Soviet Union.
One has to spend all of one’s life climbing the greasy pole, which might involve lying, cheating, stealing and even killing. With such an insular, ideological system it becomes impossible to choose anyone except the next-in-line apparatchik, regardless of what is happening in the outside world.
