Sometimes you just have to shake your head.
The MSNBC show “The Weekend,” on Saturday, in their infinite wisdom (yes, I’m being facetious), decided to provide the Democratic Party with some valuable advice as to what they ought to do next, in order to start winning elections. While they did get one thing right, the balance of their advice was pretty ludicrous.
On Saturday’s edition of MSNBC’s The Weekend, the panel had few ideas on what theme Democrats should run on.
But there was consensus on one thing: “Fighting Oligarchy,” the name of the national tour by Bernie Sanders and Ocasio-Cortez, ain’t it.
Co-host Michael Steele: “The ‘oligarchy tour,’ I think, kind of misses middle America. Folks sitting at the local pub aren’t using the term oligarchy.”
This brings a pithy observation to mind, one that begins with the word “No” and ends with the word, “Sherlock.” But here’s where things went off the rails.
But what should the message be? Daniels delivered the grim news:
“The problem now, though, is that Democrats don’t have an alternative. You have to be able to say, OK, this is what we can offer you that Republicans can’t. And that’s what they have yet to do.”
May we suggest: “A Chicken In Every Pot, And Free Beer Tomorrow!”
Some other suggestions come to mind, most of them involving having leftists engage in some new and possibly helpful tactics, called “shutting up” and “going away.” It doesn’t look like those are in the cards, though; despite their cratering approval ratings, the Democrats somehow seem to think they are a viable alternative to… well, anything.
