Once in a while, a politician will tell you how he really feels about America and Americans. This does not apply to dear leader…he is not a master of subtlety. He is up front about hating everyone not him. As I watched the Democratic debate, Tom Steyer was blustering about his building a billion dollar business from nothing and how that makes him the best choice to defeat Trump. Wait for it…because I have talked to ordinary Americans. Does anyone consider himself or herself to be ordinary? How about average. Tom Steyer revealed himself to be an elitist in that single sentence. The man who would be king is already in the White House and working overtime to destroy our democracy. We do not need another woefully self absorbed individual leading the nation. And for a while I had thought maybe Steyer could be the guy. Funny, I only watched the debate maybe fifteen minutes.

By the way, does any ordinary individual really care whether Bernie told Elizabeth a woman can’t win the presidency. How about can a white guy who has suffered a heart attack in his seventh decade of life be elected. The two suggestions are equally relevant and equally low minded.

The depressing aspect of this field of candidates is that none of them are likable, or inspiring, or charismatic. Since women are rarely imbued with any of those attributes it could come down to a two woman race. It’s a man’s world is becoming less attractive with each passing wildfire, hurricane, and catastrophic flooding. Please sir, may I have another.
