This Warren thing is a pretty strange obsession in the chattering classes. She seems to have no interest in offering up up her integrity and human dignity just to keep the bezzle alive for a few more years. And good for her.
This whole process is fascinating. Imagine a Sanders - Trump contest. Most of all that would be a complete rejection of the opinion elite who imagine that for all practical purposes they are the people. Similar in scale to the Greek no vote.
Every nation has their own norms of expression, and, within those bounds, Trump is a US expression of the character type Mussolini represented for Italy. Same easy ideological flexibility, same bloated ego, same strutting posturing and nationalistic posing, same self-absorption, etc. But I don't think the US electorate will be as receptive now as the Italian was then. "It is not necessary to have hope in order to persevere."
