For 20 years, it's been little more than 'Democrats in disarray as GOP's flaws and failures propel them forward.' I don't see that needle moving any time soon. If there's profit to be made in hanging trump from the rafters after he's out, that too shall come to pass... but only if the profit margins and ticker allows it. But as it stands, Democrats will always be the punching bag and focus of irrational criticism and demands by the for-profit media audience.

Our press is almost entirely fascist/fascist friendly. That much has been exposed over the past few years. W_HAMILTON Dec 15 #8
