The End of the Democrats?

I used to listen to our local NPR station back in the 1990s. The guy who reported on the Ohio legislature was an old school reporter who did a good job covering them from a neutral point of view. You couldn't really even guess at his party affiliation. Maybe his work inoculated him against being a partisan because the state legislature of Ohio, like that of many states in the country, is the reject bin for national level politicians so it's like a non stop pageant of dumb fucks giving nonsense speeches.

Now, the democrats have Cortez in congress, who reminds me of those retarded state legislators. She garners a lot of attention because she's prettier than most congress people and probably for that reason, the democrat PR machine started to push her as a national level politician. Unfortunately for them she's a genuine dumb ass. Her "Green New Deal" reads like a 8th grader's extra credit science class project. It's a collection of random central planning utopia sci-fi tropes.

We've seen the end of both of the national parties in the US. The GOP died with Bush and rebooted with Trump as the middle class party. The god awful democrats died with 0bama (another Bush) but still haven't rebooted. The stumbling and bumbling of the 2020 campaign will be epic. I'm tempted to say the Cortez side show will shut down at some point because the media will eventually ignore her in an attempt to save some credibility for the blue squad, but in the social media world, she can run her pie hole on twitter and keep doubling down on the crazy to get more attention.

It's entirely possible that the democrats are completely oblivious to their position. The mainstream media, for example, seems pretty oblivious to its decline. Inside their clique bubble, where the hefty paychecks are still being deposited, it's not important that PewdiePie has a larger audience than they do.

I've thought the RINO/DINO party will reboot as the democrats after 2020, but maybe I'm wrong. It seems like the "mainstream" neolib candidates are adopting some of the lunatic marxist ideas, too.
