Life-Affirming

Watching Maureen Dowd fret over the catfight between Gramma Nan and Tide Pod Evita is…

…well, deliciously life-affirming:

Rahm Emanuel told me Chakrabarti is “a snot-nosed punk” who has no idea about the battle scars Pelosi bears from the liberal fights she has led.
“What votes did you get?” Emanuel said, rhetorically challenging A.O.C.’s chief of staff. “You should only be so lucky to learn from somebody like Nancy who has shown incredible courage and who has twice returned the Democratic Party to power.
“We fought for years to create the majorities to get a Democratic president elected and re-elected, and they’re going to dither it away. They have not decided what’s more important: Do they want to beat Trump or do they want to clear the moderate and centrists out of the party? You really think weakening the speaker is the right strategy to try to get rid of Donald Trump and everything he stands for?”
In the age of Trump, there is no more stupid proposition than that Nancy Pelosi is the problem. If A.O.C. and her Pygmalions and acolytes decide that burning down the House is more important than deposing Trump, they will be left with a racist backward president and the emotional satisfaction of their own purity.

On, Nan and Evita – I hate it when you fight.

No. Wait. I love it when you fight. My bad.

  1. The Great (Star)Tribune: The story of Ilham Omar’s fraudulent marriages can no longer be hidden.

    Toto leaps out of Dorothy’s arms and scampers across the polished floors of the Great Tribune’s hall.

    The Great (Star)Tribune: You must reconsidered the case of Al Franken. Due process was not followed.

    Toto vanishes behind a curtain.

    The Great (Star)Tribune: Al Franken must be elected to Congress in Ilham Omar’s place

    Dorothy, “Oh my, who is that little man? Why….. He’s nothing but a DNC/DFL political hack!!”

  2. But, with this, I keep remembering 2015-2016- the reports were in fighting among Republicans. Democrats loved it. Thought Hillary was a sure win because of it. And now new Democrats are being outspoken, and the same thing is being said. But, at the end of the day, I don’t think the Democrats will be affected anymore by this than the Republicans were in 2016. In fact, like Trump seemed to inspire some people with what they thought was a “fresh voice” many Democrats seem to be feeling the same about these younger Democrats.

  3. If Memaw Clinton was still in Congress, TPE would have already commmitted suicide with two shotgun blasts to the head.
