Dems Can Win If They’re More Like Warren G. Harding. Good Call, New York Times! (Wonkette)

The New York Times ran a forgettable, anodyne “what folks in a swing district think” piece today, and even though we just finished reading it, it’s already vanishing from our memory as surely as the hint of citrus flavor in a can of La Croix water. By coincidence, it also left us mildly gassy. The piece spends far too long quoting people pretending to talk like the pundits on TV, in the interest of explaining Today’s Dem Voters are looking for “pragmatism” in a candidate. It wraps up with the bizarre recommendation that Democrats may well defeat the worst president ever by adopting a campaign slogan from one of the previous holders of the title. That thought came via a 28-year-old local committee member, Andrew Hayman, in Upper Darby, Pennsylvania.

Mr. Hayman said Democrats’ strongest message in 2020 ought to be about expunging the Trump years and returning the country to stability. Democrats, he said, should take a page from President Warren G. Harding, a Republican, and promise a return to normalcy.

“If we just talk about running the government, I think we win on that,” he said.
