'The Democratic Party...has embraced a progressive politics that jibes with the sensibilities of wealthy coastal elites—and has alienated pretty much everyone else.'
Ah, there's that word again. Elites.
So Let's see who some of these elites are - and - oops! Some of them are these new fangled 'populists'!

Cotton - educated at Harvard
Vance - " " Yale

De Santis - " " Harvard
And there's gotta be a few hundred million dollars shared among them.
The idea that elitists are all from the Democratic Party is nonsensical. Or maybe because they're not 'coastal' - maybe that's why the above mentioned qualify as not being elitist. But these guys are as disconnected to the average worker as they come. I'll wait a bit to see what they do. Will they put their money where their mouth is? Or will they tumble back down to Trump's orbit and get exactly nothing done. My bet is on the latter.
Don't you think that Democrats jibing with the sensibilities of coastal elites would be synonymous with being allied to the Democratic tendencies of said coastal elites? Elites do not belong to the Dems - there are enough to go around, so that even the 'populist' wing of the GOP can claim a few. Quite a few. As in, let's jump on the latest train to victory. Elites, in other words, are meaningless to both parties. It's a false dichotomy, and quoted ad nauseam by journalism like this.

You've beclowned yourself.
You quoted the fact that Democrats "jibe with the sensibilities of wealthy coastal elites and have alienated everyone else".
Then you attempted to contradict that statement by bait-and-switching a different statement - that "elitists are all from the Democrat Party".
