"I'm beginning to face a hard fact, one that was plainly evident in the results from the Democrat primaries last night.
On the one hand, this is a party, the two front runners of which are
1) a doddering old man who clearly is in the process of losing his faculties and
2) a doddering old man who is a stealth communist disguised as a socialist - and they have to choose between them.

No doubt that some voted for Biden because they feared Bernie and many voted for Bernie because they see Biden sliding toward a comfortable divan at the care home - but the problem is that neither of them is good for America.
One major commonality is that their policies are incoherent ramblings of nonsense and impossibility.
- The former candidate can't really articulate what he is going to do but knows he will tax the hell out of you to do it and the
- second wants to make everything free but has no idea how much "free" is going to cost.
The other commonality is that both of the represent some sort of "feel good" progressivism where feelings matter more than facts. It doesn't matter how much it costs, how much it destroys or how ineffective it is in resolving a particular issue - or whether that issue is even real - it only matters how good we feel to be "doing something".
That's just inane, imbecilic and impossible to sustain.
But millions of Democrat primary voters just cast their ballots for that very thing last night - and were enthusiastic in their ignorance - signalling that we have a significant number of people completely detached from reality.
And that's a problem."
