To get a hint about where the Democratic Party may be going, ignore cable news. Focus on actual news reporting. So far, it's actually good news.

I mean, there are discussions happening that US Representative Hakeem Jeffries may not be the next US House Democratic Leader or US Speaker.
I've always maintained that he and the other post-Pelosi US House Democratic leadership should have never been the new US House Democratic leadership. They are all around just as 'conservative' and 'corporate' as US Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi. The Democratic Party has moved to the Left since 2019 and 2021.

They are both good articles.

Here's David Brooks 'moderate' Republican: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/06/opinion/trump-elites-working-class.html
It's literally the first David Brooks article I was even ever aware of in which I agree and consider a good article and analysis.
David French at the NYT also had a good article.
