Democrats Face Crushing Defeat Even in Senate

With infinite reluctance and lingering disbelief, what calls itself the progressive media is starting to concede the outlines of the overwhelming rejection the Democrats, the Biden administration, and Congress have earned and are likely to sustain next week.
Progressive for these purposes is a bedraggled coalition of elements that are no longer comfortable with each other: the militantly anti-white African Americans, the “woke” pseudo-academic America-haters, and what’s left of the tired old Joe Biden-style Democratic machine establishment.
These are the detritus of organized industrial labor, unionized public servants, the old liberal academic community that still professes to be capable of loving America again if it mutates into a self-hating socialist society, and the remnants of the old voting blocks, including Roman Catholics who disapprove of almost all the tenets of their Church and ethnic traditionalists who remember that they once got the short straw and were raised in homes where Franklin D. Roosevelt’s picture was on the wall in gratitude for the New Deal.
It’s all coming to a catastrophically undignified end. President Biden is the overaged middleweight, now just a punching bag for his enemies—one campaign later than the Last Hurrah, still patriotic in his way, and believing that “America can (still) do anything,” but so addicted to public approval that he thinks that any move to the left is for the best and assists in gaining for him an honored place in the pantheon of American reformers.
