Came in at lunchtime from making a gate in the boundary fence and watched the PBS Newshour while I ate a cheese and jam sandwich. Wholemeal of course. And a mug of white tea with sugar. Raw, of course.
Woodruff was introducing Stuart Stevens, a recent Adviser to the Republican Party.
She said Stevens has written this book about the Party’s road to the Trump Presidency. The title of his book is: “It Was All a Lie”.
So Stevens comes on, it's a video link, and says his book is about the Party ... which, he said, was trying to work out ways not too long ago to attract more African American members. Now the Party is contemplating ways to prevent African Americans voting.
He cited the current Administration’s cost-cutting in the U.S. Postal Service as a way to prevent smooth, timely voting. (Just makin it harder. You know?. Yet another turn of the screw.)
Stevens says: “Trump was a moral test for the Party and the Party failed.” Today the Party has taken on a “… white grievance identity”. (Make America Great Agin!)
Stevens doubts the Party can be “… fixed”. And, that future useful Government Policy can only come from the Democrats, whether the ideas for these policies come out of Biden’s camp or Sander’s.
And I finished my lunch and turned off the tele, thinking: “Glad I ‘m not there!” and went back to work on the boundary fence and the present moment.
