Have The Democrats Lost Their Freaking Minds?
Now that there are at least 24 announced candidates for the Democratic Party Nomination, its time to ask the question:
Have the Democrats lost their freaking minds?
The 2020 Democratic Primary is a virtual buffet, a smorgasbord of delectable candidates like goodies, each vying for the focused attention of the American electorate.
At the beginning of the year, it looked like the Democrats were primed to overthrow the Trump administration in the 2020 Presidential Election.
All Democrats had to do was nominate a sensible Democrats who could go toe to toe, gaffe to gaffe, and non-political correctness to non-political correctness with “The Donald.” An easy enough political prescription to fill, one would have thought five months ago.
But what the Democrats have done is come out of the woodworks with all manner of political ideas to wage a political campaign upon in 2020. To be sure, there have been several excellent policy statements to emerge from the campaign thus far, from a free college education, Medicare for all, and reparation for Black citizens. All of which, are select group centric, without the ump, I believe, needed to attract a large swath of American voters to change horses in the middle of the stream.
