j reacts to the estate tax hike as bad politics (this election is about winning boomers)

this is good policy.

but, in a year when disproportionately wealthy aging boomers are going to determine the election, the reality is that it's terrible politics.

you want to do it. but, you want to bury it somewhere.

i just don't get it: the inability to adapt. broadly. what, is it supposed to attract young voters? because they don't want to inherit anything? i...

again...

who picked clinton over sanders? boomers.
who picked trump over the field? boomers.
who are the issues directed at? boomers.
what is the age of the candidates? boomers.
who are going to vote in the largest numbers? boomers.

here's a (not so) bold prediction: whomever wins boomers will be the next president.

hopefully, this is a last hurrah. an end of an era.

but they created this election, and it is theirs to decide.

while the battles of that generation go through their final motions, the kids are going to remain off in the distance smoking a joint and laughing about how absurd the charade is.

nobody's going to swing them. not these candidates. accept it...

you have to win boomers, democrats.
