I never thought I'd see the day that I stand with Steve Schmidt, more than James Carville. However, I should not be surprised at what James is pushing because he is basically saying, do whatever you want to do certain segments of the population. It's very similar to what happened at the end of reconstruction where Hayes decided to pull troops out of the south to allow the KKK and anyone else who wanted to to do whatever they wanted to to Black people to have free reign. This type of thinking is a reason that the Democrats didn't win this last time. The people that have done the most work for the Democratic Party are being thrown to the wolves, and James is using words like the folks that are in charge right now (identify politics) instead of just calling it what it is. Giving the nationalist what they want. Throwing their constituents to the wolves. We're all gonna lose this country because so many that I thought were principled people like Steve seems to be are in fact OK with what the current guy is doing as long as they believe they won't be impacted. Never thought I'd see the day.
The Democratic party has allowed itself and its' message to be high jacked by self-proclaimed progressive fringe, identify politics, big mouths as opposed to just staying true to their core message of being for the middle class and working-class man/women, with equal rights for all. Their current lack of strong political leadership, with strong charisma and vision, and lack of a common message, has allowed Trump and Far-Right Republicans to define them instead, allied with the well-oiled Conservative News and Social Media Propaganda Machine. The so-called mainstream media has been a joke for over a decade, with the consolidation of media outlets by a few billionaires more concerned with profits then performing their duties as members of the 4th estate and provide a check and balance on government and defender of the Constitution.

Democrats are making a pathetic mistake by choosing a “moderate” like Michigan’s Elissa Slotkin to deliver their response to Trump’s speech tonight.
This is pure cowardice.
Trump is an existential threat to democracy, and they counter with milquetoast centrism?
They should have picked a real fighter—AOC, Bernie Sanders, or Elizabeth Warren—someone with the guts to take him head-on.

The media oligarchs genuflect to trump and sell out the US. Mark Zuckerberg too. Put them all in a cage.
