Democrats have become 'distant and detached' from Americans, Biden official Rahm Emanuel warns
Story by Lindsay Kornick • 2h

Jesse Watters: Dems are moaning across Washington that Biden set them back
Biden administration official and former Chicago mayor Rahm Emanuel lamented in a new op-ed that the Democratic Party has become "distant and detached," adopting an "aloof elite" image.

Emanuel offered, "The road back to power for the Democrats," in a piece for the Washington Post Tuesday. He explained the party was "blind to the rising sea of disillusionment" in favor of the Kamala Harris campaign’s "joy" theme, ignoring growing distrust of the establishment.
 
"The bonds of trust between the establishment and the public had been severed, and too many in our party failed to appreciate it," Emanuel wrote. "In fact, during the pandemic, Democrats abandoned their antiestablishment credentials and enthusiastically morphed into the establishment. In ‘following the science,’ we shuttered schools and the economy."
 
Emanuel went on to attack Democrats for adapting an out-of-touch mindset focused on woke issues.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

The Pubbies may be ridin' high now.

But that will vanish quickly if they behave the same way this time as they did during the first term Mr. Trump was in office.

It's up to them... (not him).

If anyone can snatch defeat from the jaws of victory it's the Republican party.
