Two Barone Insights

Power Line's Paul Mirengoff links to a Michael Barone article which says some interesting things about the two major parties ignoring the signals the "marketplace" of voters has sent them. Both parties have suffered therefrom.

Democrats have been allowing players with adolescent mindsets to determine their policies, and Republicans have been embracing a leader with adolescent behavior control problems. It's time for the parties to grow up and pay attention to the signals and cues voters are sending them in the political marketplace.

I believe Barone has two interesting political insights. As we've commented before, Trump's policies were mostly great but his execution of them was uneven.
