Since the day Trump was elected, I've been concerned he'd be so over-the-top that the Democratic Party's response would be over-the-top, too. Sure enough, that's what we've seen. And, predictably, ugly politics now pollute damn near every part of our society.
But I've also been hoping that just enough sanity would remain in the party that it would be able to see some boundaries. Maybe that's happening now, too:
Centrist Democrats rethink alliances as Biden crumbles
This madness has spawned the rise of nutters like AOC, Talib & Omar, not to mention this largely whacko crop of "presidential candidates", especially Bernie and Warren. Maybe the more pragmatic elements of the party still have enough influence to stop the freakin' madness.
Here's hoping.
From the linked piece:
“If Bernie ends up being one of these frontrunners, he’ll have to moderate. I’m not going socialist. Never been a socialist,” Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) said. “If he doesn’t change, I’ve got a dilemma there. We’ll see. But we’re talking about hypotheticals. I think there’s going to be a lot happening between now and then.”
The soul-searching within the establishment wing of the Democratic Party comes after Sanders solidified his frontrunner status in Iowa and New Hampshire, which produced a pair of cringeworthy finishes for Biden. The former vice president did so poorly in New Hampshire that he ditched his own election night watch party to head to South Carolina, possibly giving an opening to Bloomberg, who skipped the first four contests.
“I’m feeling a momentum shift to Bloomberg right now,” said Rep. Lou Correa (D-Calif.), who endorsed Biden in the summer and plans to stick with him.
One of the most glaring examples of the change in tide on Capitol Hill is a trio of Bloomberg endorsements from the Congressional Black Caucus on Wednesday — a not-so-subtle show of force against Biden, who remains the favored candidate among black voters nationally.

Let's Review.
In order to beat Trump who promotes Patriotism, America First, Freedom, Upward Mobility, Deregulation...
The Democrats fielded The Following.
A Radical Socialist Effeminate Homosexual who wants to take your guns, who wants to implement The Green New Deal, who wants to Bankrupt America by increasing Government Debt by 500% and give money to Couch Potatoes.
A Radical Millionaire Communist who Got Rich off of Big Government who wants to expand the size of Government by 500% so he can build Gulags, and Guillotines, and confiscate the wealth of this country, take all of your weapons and throw everyone in work camps.
A Radical Dirty Billionaire who was recruited to help The Broke Ass Dems to circumvent Campaign Finance. Who Hates Black People, Who Wants To Increase Government Spending by 500% so that we can embrace The Green New Scam, and continue killing Babies.
A washed up Senile Stuttering Deep State VP who enriched him and his family through graft, bribery and extortion, who does not know what state he is in.
NO they aren't waking up to anything.
They are going even further to the Left and are MORE BLIND THAN EVER.
