    that’s great analysis.

    Its true of both parties, that when when politician communicates in public, they need to do 2 things :

    1. Show that you are obedient and skilled at delivering and defending the policies paid for by your parties donors.
    2. throw a bit of red meat to feed your base.

    thats the job.

    If you are prepared to go on TV, and say we could easy the hunger problem by eating babies, and you are good at it - well, money and power will come your way.

    The Democrats serve corporate profits.

    The Republicans currently serve the billionaire class, for whom having the thumb on the scales is no longer enough, and demand that reality itself be bent to their will.
