Can Obama save the Democrats?

That’s funny Joe. You didn’t trust O because he’s racist, then you prove yourself a bigot for disliking Romney because he’s a Mormon. LOL.

Um, yeah, if you belong to a cult, I tend to not like you. Romney was the GOP giving fully in to religious crazy.

Obama wasn't racist... he was kind of a snake when he threw granny under the bus.... But by 2012, he had grown into the role.

When Trump won in 2016, I expressed concern that the blowback from the hardcore Left would be so strong that the Democratic Party would be taken over by the illiberal, authoritarian Regressive Left, leaving us with a truly fucked up choice in 2020.

So, bang, here we are. Obama sees it, too: Obama looms over divided Democratic primary

So, can Obama save the party?

His latest remarks came last week as Obama met with party donors in California, where he urged Democrats to “chill out” about the primary contest and prepare to rally behind the eventual nominee. But he also appeared to warn against calling for too drastic of change.

“When you listen to the average voter — even ones who aren’t stalwart Democrats, but who are more independent or are low-information voters — they don’t feel that things are working well, but they’re also nervous about changes that might take away what little they have,” Obama said.

For some Democrats, Obama’s remarks reinforced their concerns that the primary field has lurched too far to the left and that the party may be barreling toward a loss in 2020 unless it can unite behind a moderate nominee capable of appealing to a broader swath of voters in the general election.

“I think that to some extent Obama is the canary in the coal mine,” said Dick Harpootlian, a former chair of the South Carolina Democratic Party who is supporting former Vice President Joe Biden’s presidential bid. “He’s warning Democrats that if you buy an agenda that is not relevant or salable in November, you’re guaranteeing Donald Trump a second term.”

No. They are too crazy for Obama to save.

The New Hotness? White People Should Come To Terms With Their Whiteness… says Pete Buttigieg.

Amazing how the mainstream left and the fringe alt-right are perfect mirror images of each other.

Well, now we have the Regressive Left and the Trumpsters largely controlling their respective parties.

There are still some who are refusing to play along, but they're being shouted down and marginalized more and more.

It's not exactly a surprise, given how the two ends share so many behaviors, but it's also not a coincidence that the country is coming apart at the seams.

The Left is so deranged they are trying to overturn the 2016 election. Hopefully after this fails they will again be able to engage in the normal give and take of negotiation.
