Here's how Democrats can hit back against Trump's angry white man base.
NBC News ^ | Oct.14.2018 | Opinion - Howell Raines

Posted on 10/14/2018 4:08:16 AM PDT by Carriage Hill

Democrats can defeat the Trump base. But only if they ditch Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi — and rally female voters What the angry white male writing this column wants to know is who will hit back for the Democrats?

My polling cohort, older white men, took a public-relations beating during the Brett Kavanaugh hearings — and I say it’s about time. Never in modern political history have so many been given so much by our culture and yet have been so casual about the health of the Republic.

You are correct. The Democrat Party is the political arm of the MSM/Deep State.

Wikipedia: Howell Raines
Raines was appointed Executive Editor of The Times in September 2001, serving until May 2003. At that time, controversy generated by the reporting scandal related to Jayson Blair led to his dismissal. A Times internal investigation revealed that 36 of the 73 national stories Blair filed with the paper over a six-month period were marred by errors, false datelines or evidence of plagiarism. Raines was faulted for continuing to publish Blair months after the paper’s metro editor, Jonathan Landman, sent him a memo urging him “to stop Jayson from writing for The Times. Right now.”...

The Blair inquiry also revealed widespread discontent among Times staffers over Raines’ management style, which was described as arbitrary and heavy-handed...
The paper’s owner, Arthur Ochs Sulzberger, Jr., also conducted an investigation and concluded that Raines had alienated most of the New York and Washington bureaus. Raines’ resignation, along with that of Gerald Boyd, was announced in the June 5, 2003 issue of The Times...
Raines published an op-ed in the March 14, 2010 edition of The Washington Post that was highly critical of Fox News Channel. He suggested its biased reporting was not sufficiently criticized by legitimate media...

Has any party caucus of either the House or the Senate ever elected a leader prior to election? He’s suggesting Beto O’Rourke - what if he loses? Could they give him an office - I know the Speaker of the House is not legally required to be a House member..I’m not sure if the Senate Party Leaders are required to be members...maybe it’s a party caucus rule rather than law.

Or would it just be a campaign stunt, and if O’Rourke loses, the Senate Democrat caucus would elect a new leader?

They don’t want their ‘agenda’ made public; it’s socialism/communism/marxism.

Is Kanye West an angry white male? He’s angry at the Democrats, but certainly not a white man.

yeah, Howell, that’s the ticket: the Dems should double-down on attacking white men, because all of their white mothers, aunts, wives and sisters will suddenly start hating them too and join the Dems in their solidarity of hatred ... or something ...

They block traffic, because, I’m angry.

They shout me down, because, I’m angry.

They riot, because, I’m angry.

They chase me out of restaurant, because, I’m angry.

They heap baseless insults upon me, because, I’m angry.

They blame me for all their misery, because, I’m angry.

But rather than go on and on, let’s just say ...

Yeah, right, sure, I’m the angry one, whatever.

Raines is mentally-ill.

Of course he is. He’s an angry leftist.

" because you can’t beat something with nothing, and the senior citizens in charge of the Democratic future seem clueless about the performance politics "

Let's see:

Raines recognizes that he is nothing, a zer0.

Raines wants the violent, angry, socialist fascists to double down on the GOPee and attack their current leaders too.

He left out fewdays more that need to be dropped like Feinstein, Karnataka, and the rest of the Democrats.

Mentally ill and demoralized when he starts calling for the Dems to dump Schumer and Pelosi - I love the smell of fresh-popped Dem heads in the air...all that methane makes one’s eyes water but it is a “pleasing aroma” under the circumstances.

Trump’s straight white male base has a right to be angry — they are the only citizens against whom it is legal to discriminate.
