There might have been a time when Democrats could have taken back the White House by simply letting President Trump implode, but instead they opted to one-up his self-destructive behavior. Now theyre finally realizing they are more than likely set to lose.

Liberals in the media can usually put on a brave face when they know their political party of choice is heading toward a cliff, as with the Mueller investigation and impeachment, but there was no denying what we all saw this week: the decomposition of the Democratic presidential field.

The debate this week was a disaster, and everyone is admitting it. (Except, that is, for the Washington Posts Eugene Robinson, who wrote in earnest that the debate gave Democrats reason to hope that the happy ending they seek for might actually happen, an assessment divorced from reality.)

Immediately after the debate, CNNs Van Jones said the event was dispiriting.

Democrats are going to have to do better than what we saw tonight, he said. There was nothing I saw tonight that would be able to take Donald Trump out, and I want to see a Democrat in the White House as soon as possible. There was nothing tonight that if you're looking at this thing and say any of these people are prepared for what Donald Trump is going to do to us.

Well said. But wait! Theres more!

The next day on MSNBCs Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough said the candidates performances at the debate should send a chill up Democrats spines, because these people are still not ready for prime time.

On the same show, Al Sharpton said: I didnt see anybody on the stage last night, or in the ring, that really said, Im taking charge. I can be president. I can take on Donald Trump.

Liberal CNN commentator Angela Rye, my favorite, needed to psych herself up to make the same admission, but she eventually went through with it Wednesday on Cuomo Prime Time.

Asked by Chris Cuomo if she believed after the debate that any of the Democrats demonstrated they can beat Trump, Rye let out an exhale that could be felt through the screen.

I have to be honest with you because that is my pledge as a person who has a platform on TV, she said, and I have to be honest with you, that debate stage last night frightened me."

Rye said she didnt see a whole ton of strength among the candidates and that we have a lot of groundwork to do before this party can beat Donald Trump.

Democrats have accepted their fate, and its a lot of fun to watch.
