You want the truth about this Democratic political infighting? Fine, but it is ugly. [View all]

This post might get me banned, but so be it.

It needs to be said.

The power structure is a combination of Ivy League and Georgetown.

Joe went to Syracuse.

Ironic-an Orangeman (at the time) defeated an Orange man.

I saw this coming moons back.

I was never allowed inside Obamaworld, even though I had been a member of Clintonworld and Goreworld and even Kerryworld.

But Obama liked to employ those preppy boys like Jon Favreau. He felt they helped him communicate with youth.

I am a midwestern burger munching, baseball watching, kick back with a cold beer dude. I am white, well, actually a lot of bloodlines but that doesn't really mean much to this conversation because this is not a racial divide it is a cultural one.

In 2008 I never got a role beyond field level work I had done in 1992 as a kid. That all went to Ivies or at least private school kids. I saw the changes with my own eyes. My union buddies were replaced with know-it-all and very obnoxious college interns.

The electorate felt the shift. Rhetoric wile soaring detached itself from the folksy nature of President Clinton. We lost more and more of rural America.

Old pols felt scorned, some left, some even became MAGA. In my county, our largest donor became a huge Trumper. This is about the Democratic party branding itself right now, not waiting, not sitting back, as the party of technocrats and socially liberal elites.

What Sean O' Brien didn't say, what he didn't explain, is that he likely knows that the one man the Teamsters would endorse, is to his knowledge, and he would know, not likely to be on the ticket. And the Rockerfeller Dems overthrowing this party like Schiff aren't concerned about unions, or blue collar issues at large. And so we have the last remnants of the Humphrey Democrats, leading us, fighting for us, and being pushed out the door so dog walking college students get another fancy apartment development where a black grandma's home once stood.

Have you asked yourself why Democratic metros keep raising property values on historically black neighborhoods relative to white? Look it up. Look up St. Louis, CO and Cuyahoga, CO.

While all the while we wonder, of course, "What is going on with minority support?"

This is the truth. This has been coming for a while.

The Democratic Party post-Joe Biden presidency will be much different, and instantly, than with him whether he exits the stage now or 2029. What exactly it will be I can't be sure, it might continue to promote the middle class on the surface, but my guess is in the end, the powerful would rather keep their tax cut so if the new nominee wins, assuming one is needed, expect them to keep most of the Trump cuts.

So who wins? I don't know. Probably us. What wins?

That is a more difficult question to answer.

My guess in ten years this party occupies the place on the Political Compass that the Bush Republican Party did 20 years ago.

Ban away. Or not. Too sick to care, as I am suffering from a progressive vessel disease and this is likely my last run.

I just want to help as many people as I can on the way to my sunset, as this cowboy rides away.
