Ginnie Thomas and the End of the Elite Consensus
If we elites could only get together behind closed doors and hash things out as God and nature intended - then we wouldn't have these lower class QAnon rabble and leftist BLM whackos trying to throw the economy in the toilet. Elites, like us, ultimately all want the same things. Stable markets, less onerous regulation, occasional insider trading info, and lower taxes for the wealthy. Sure we'll argue about abortion or whatever - but that is a little show for the rubes.Coonsian bipartisanship and the fetishization of "cooperation" isn't so much about people with different views on the issues getting together. It is much more classist than that. It is about class affiliation and agreement among elites on some big worldview items, and not about political parties "finding middle ground." Or it was that, anyway. It is a very strange view for Coons to continue to hold these days when the elite consensus with regard to trading off control of the White House and Congress every once in a while has completely broken down. I mean, Ginnie Thomas is going to make the next cocktail party at Bezos Manner very awkward with her nonsense. Very awkward, indeed.
