This letter to Josh Marshall is an old complaint from rank-and-file Democrats. The DC establishment does a shitty job of highlighting GOP insanity, intransigence and inability to govern. DC Dems - the narrative goes - are still assuming it's 1964 and they can get Republican votes for the Civil Rights Act.
I think there might be some truth in that and I wonder how much the Very Online Democrat - which probably includes a lot of the Hill Staffers - sees the GOP insanity as self-evident. That their actions are so obviously harmful that reasonable people will make reasoned and informed decisions on what is patently obvious.
The 2022 midterms have begun. Democrats need to start shoving GOP insanity in people's faces. The press won't do it.
