“The steaming pile of shit theory” on 2020/Trump/Biden/Sanders

Paul Begala, one of Bill Clinton’s earliest and most loyal strategists, offers a metaphor to explain how the Biden team views the ideological divides in the 2020 race:

“You’re sitting down for breakfast and there’s a steaming pile of shit on your table and you say, ‘Can we get this shit off of my table?’” he told me recently. “And Elizabeth says, ‘I’m going to build you a new house!’ And Bernie says, ‘I’m going to build you a new city!’ And I’m like, no, just get this fucking shit off my kitchen table and we’ll get back to normal life!”
