For John, BLUF: Never Trumpers fear the Democrats will abandon the "get Trump" fight for the quest for some leftist nirvana. Nothing to see here; just move along.
From The Bulwark, by Sarah Longwell, 9 July 2019.
Here is the lede plus one:
It was bound to happen.It is like LiMu Emu, in the Liberty Mutual ads. Doug asks: "What do these people have in common." LiMu provides the answer—"Nothing."Like a summer romance, this relationship always felt doomed to fail. Brought together by little more than the maxim “the enemy of my enemy is my friend,” Never Trumpers and Democrats seem like they’re on the verge of a break up.
But unlike during the Kavanaugh hearing when both sides decided to go on a break, this time feels like it could be splitsville, for reals. And like the divorce of that nice couple on Facebook you knew from high school, the drama is playing out in front of everyone on social media.
As the Democratic Presidential Contenders drift left, and the Democratic Party controlled House refuses to Impeach, more voters will break away and go with Trump in 2020.
And at the end of the day, it doesn’t actually matter what Never Trumpers do. We’re a hashtag, not a voting block. What matters is what Democrats do after they take a good, long look in the mirror and contemplate all of the apocalyptic things they’ve said about Trump over the last three years.They don't. For the Democrats it is always Springtime for Hitler regardless of the Republican Candidate. And House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, tacking back to the left, just yesterday said President Trump wants to Make America White Again". Nice talk. Just when I think she has gone straight, she swerves to the left.And then decide whether or not they meant them.
Hat tip to the InstaPundit.
