>the lack of a sharp rebuke of trump is worse than I imagined.
Was that the point? That one group of Americans wish to insult each other? When I listen to Mark Blyth or hear of some older woman who has a self-described 'abnormal love' for Trump, this comes to mind.
Here is David Byrne singing about it 40 years ago. (Do you think?)

And all this wretched whatever it is (we are close to identity politics?) obscures the similarities of interests......living wage, healthcare, cheaper education, rolling back the wars. The left has a lot more in common with the right than it does with the centre. I don't know how long it will take for corporate Democrats to learn. Or do you agree with Cenk, that they are paid to lose?
Talking along these lines 'white genocide' seems just around the corner.
You remember in the 60s there were a whole batch of musos who went all over the centre and the south, and on the whole, they wrote with generosity, I think. Nothing like that now.
