Good morning Middle Americans,
House speaker Nancy Pelosi has a message for the Elizabeth Warrens and Bernie Sanders of the world, also known as the front-runners of the 2020 Democratic primary field You can’t do anything unless you win. That is the first rule of politics after all. As the great Conservative scholar Thomas Sowell says, “No one will really understand politics until they understand that politicians are not trying to solve our problems. They are trying to solve their own problems — of which getting elected and re-elected are No. 1 and No. 2. Whatever is No. 3 is far behind”.

Pelosi Worried 2020 Candidates Are on Wrong Track
(Bloomberg) – Speaker Nancy Pelosi is issuing a pointed message to Democrats running for president in 2020: Those liberal ideas that fire up the party’s base are a big loser when it comes to beating President Donald Trump.

“Remember November,” she said. “You must win the Electoral College.”

New Polls Show How Much Americans Hate Each Other
(The Atlantic) – Americans’ views on impeachment are neatly split along partisan lines. The latest polling averages, tracked by the website FiveThirtyEight, show that 84 percent of Democrats now support impeachment, close to the highest level since at least August 2018, when the site started collecting polls on the issue. By contrast, only 11 percent of Republicans support impeachment, a number that has stayed fairly consistent over the past year and a half. This gulf in Democrats’ and Republicans’ views is more than just partisanship, however. It’s the latest evidence that political tribalism has taken over nearly every part of American life.
