NYT Bret Stephens: Above All Democrats Stand For The Party of Content
Democrats are hopelessly out-of-touch.
Even after spending millions of dollars in Georgia, everyday Americans still rejected their message of “content”.
While Democrats cater to the demands of Elizabeth Warren and liberal elites, voters will continue to elect Republicans.
BRET STEPHENS: The problem is, I don’t know what the Democratic party stands for other than hating Trump. And, you know, you saw it in that special election in Georgia where you had all the enthusiasm, you had thousands of volunteers, tons of money. And a district that could have swung your way. It doesn’t do it, and I think it doesn’t do it for this reason, above all to average Americans, Democrats stand for the party of content. They stand for the party of content for ordinary Americans, for their struggles, for — also for sort of traditional values, and until that changes and until there’s a genuine outreach to sort of the white working-class American voters, that’s going to be the indelible image of the Democrats, a party of Harvard professors, Elizabeth Warrens, who are just hopelessly out of touch.
