p the Russian asset. I think Hillary's calling card is she always tries to get a twofer. So Hillary hates Russia and Putin, and often she'll hate somebody else. So if she hates somebody else, she'll just say that they're a Putin puppet so that you can take out the person that you hate but also keep the pressure on Putin. So apparently she did that trick, the same trick that she did on Trump. She…

So yes, it does look like CNN's got a little influence there from the quote intelligence sources. I don't believe any non-name sources.
I'm seeing an article saying progressives need a new leader. How in the world are they going to do that? So this is one spokesperson in the Democrat Party. They think that at least one thinks that the progressive left is better without a dominant figurehead. So the Democrats don't have an obvious leader now. It seems like Obama will still emerge at some point, but at the moment he's quiet because he's on the losing team. And then there's another view that instead of having no dominant leader, which by the way is a losing proposition. If you're ever involved in an organization who says well I don't think we need a dominant figurehead, we probably need to just share the power, you should quit immediately. Because literally nothing works if you don't have a powerful leader. Now the powerful leader should certainly be taking lots of clues from the people being led. That's what Trump does. But you still need the powerful figurehead to get anything done. You can't share power. That's never going to work.
And then somebody else saying, this is my favorite one, the Democrats need an opposite and equal force in terms of celebrity. Somebody named Turner said so. Imagine them saying, okay, we figured out what we did wrong. Trump was such a good candidate, such a powerful, strong, almost like a cult leader persuasion capabilities, that if they could come up with their own celebrity, powerful, charismatic person, that they could win elections too. So two other theories are we should not have anybody like that, and then the other theory is we need somebody just like that.
So when I say that the Democrats are lost, oh wow are they lost. They are so lost that it's almost like the people who know how anything works already became Republicans. So there's nobody left who can figure out easy stuff, you know, just basic easy strategy stuff. And anyway, I'm starting to think that there are no Democrats who have the skill to fix this. And if they're trying to figure out why does it work for the Republicans but not us, do you think I should tell them? Do you know why the Republicans got a bigger tent and they gained in every single category? Does anybody know why?
I'm going to give away the secret. Because Republicans focused on the Constitution, the law, the religion in many cases, and an emphasis on family. If you know those things, which category of human beings don't like it? None. Every category of human beings likes that. Oh, you've got a very clear set of rules that were made by people. They lasted hundreds of years. Oh, let's just follow these rules and then everybody will be good.
So the Republicans have created, probably by accident as much as anything, well obviously the Constitution is intentional, but even when the Constitution was written it wasn't exactly an egalitarian document, but it became one over time. And it seems to me that the Republicans have created a big tent vacuum cleaner, meaning that if you get anywhere near the big tent, you hear this noise, you know, a vacuum cleaner coming on, and you just get sucked in. And then when you're on the inside, all those people you thought were horrible racists, they're offering, hey, how can I help you? Can I remove the snow from your driveway? I got a few minutes. And you learned

that everything that you knew about the Republicans was wrong, and that as long as you follow the rules that they follow, they love you. They love you. You just have to follow the same rules. That's it. It's easy. But the progressives are over there trying to decide, huh, should we be progressives? Should we be more DEI and really identity politics? Or should we be more like Bernie? Or what? Thos…
