Coupla weeks ago, I speculated that we may soon witness the end of the Democratic Party as we know it. I was kind. I didn't mention the fact that the party is all out of national leaders. I mean, can you name a likely, viable Democratic candidate for president in 2020? Can you name three?

I followed up with more crystal-balling in a piece predicting that the meek will not inherit the earth if and when Trump gets dragged out of 1600 Penn by Senatorial impeachment police. The meek — the Democrats — could have/should have been the Anti-Trump Party. But they've dropped the ball. After the deluge, Paul Ryan.

With everyone so focused on the Trump administration dead pool — how will he go? when? — we're overlooking that Republicans could come out of the Trump debacle stronger than they went in. How crazy is that?
