Are They Coming Apart?
Old-school Democrats are screaming at the Hard Left as the storm clouds gather.

A rare snippet of truth surfaced on MSNBC Monday morning, and it came from a somewhat shocking source.
You’re aware of Donny Deutsch, right? He might win the prize for the most typical ruling-class Democrat in America. Deutsch comes from the advertising field — he inherited a New York ad agency from his father, which he unloaded on a larger company and pocketed $265 million. What did Deutsch like better than crafting advertising messages and placing media? Going on TV, of course. CNBC gave him a show from 2004-08, and then it was canceled. Since then, he’s gotten more chances to fail as a TV host than the Van Gundys have had as NBA coaches. Finally in 2019, he had his last gasp with a Saturday night show on MSNBC. That lasted 13 episodes.
Deutsch is also an author. That hasn’t gone particularly well either. His 2005 business motivational opus Often Wrong, Never in Doubt — Unleash the Business Rebel Within was panned vigorously by Publishers’ Weekly, which noted in a review that the book was filled with quotations like these: “I’m not going to f**k somebody for business…. unless she’s really hot. Why not? I’d f**k her if we weren’t doing business.”
He also fathered a child out of wedlock. Because of course he did.
Donny Deutsch is the guy who said that one-third of the country “must be racists” last year if they believed Donald Trump about COVID-19 or any other subject. That happened during an appearance on MSNBC’s Morning Joe show, which continues to be Deutsch’s remaining pipeline to the airwaves.
