They are completely delusional at the WSJ. And talk about out of touch!
This has gotten worse since this virus nonsense began. The news section and even the features section is about nothing except their fears and the cute little things they are doing with their designer masks or how they dress to look cool for their Zoom meetings. They’re loving it. No more messy life to worry about, no Trump to inject a bit of reality, and the money rolling in from corporations that no longer make anything but just make money on their money.
I remember years ago attending a dinner in DC; I was at a table with two ambassadors who had been appointed by Reagan - successful business types who were very convivial and impressive. There was also a country club “Muffy” at the table and we started talking politics. She said that “those people” (evangelicals and other Deplorables) had to be kicked out of the R party. I responded to her chagrin, “well that will leave the Rs with about two percent of the vote; you will have to convert en masse the populations of the big cities and it ain’t gonna happen”. One of the ambassadors piped in and backed me up, stating “we need these people and there is no way we can win an election without them”. There are some people with common sense in the party hierarchy; just not enough of them.
