The white males in this 2020 election cycle have resorted to lower primate functions in public, signaling the imminent end of their power grab in this country, even as Democrats propel presumably their last somewhat still functioning baby boomer candidate for president across the finish line against fellow boomer incumbent off-the-rails President Donald J. Trump.

Along with the supposedly noble names that could withstand even the most desecrating associations, the

end of the ultimate era of ego is at hand, to be supplanted by greater ranges of ego, conceivably too unbearable to sustain without the attached frightening stigma of those Somalia-like pickup truck driving followers of the incumbent Republican president.

“He’s peaking at the right time,” state Senator Mike Doherty (R-23) insisted of the incumbent.

And yet a Democrat, confident of Joe Biden’s victory tomorrow on the strength of battleground polling, credited Bill Stepien, Trump’s New Jersey-reared campaign manager, for making it seem close in the 11th hour. “He actually has this idiot competing,” said the source, referring to Stepien’s handing of his presidential charge.

InsiderNJ made the rounds of insiders today, trying to gauge their real feelings about the race as the country staggers toward the finish line in the worst election cycle of all-time, the combination of Trump and COVID-19 creating a totalitarian glow to bask in that must have somewhat duplicated – on a grander scale – the book-burning era of Augusto Pinochet.

Trying not to get caught in 2016 overconfidence and essentially acknowledging that the suburbs will get the win for Biden, Democrats admitted that their party has to do more to convince urban voters of their legitimacy. “We failed,” croaked a self-examining Democratic Party source, in reference to downbeat urban turnout, even as he eagerly predicted a Biden win.

Selfishly, critics of the Democratic establishment prayed for a Trump loss as a way of reconceiving competitive parties in New Jersey, where the president’s tenure has swung the pendulum so far toward the Democrats that the best answer of the inheritors of the party that enabled the nationalization of Trump to a question about their own role in the mess is to say “It’s Trump’s fault” as they routinely complacently climb into a limo idling in the ghetto.

If he were to lose tomorrow, or in the days following, having spring-boarded the Donald Trump presidency along with a national celebrity-crazed media, the Democratic establishment in New Jersey would be expected to perform a public service more strenuous than merely pointing the finger at the White House as the source of social ills. It might suddenly find itself – not hanging upside down in a Quest for Fire reenactment – but in the posture – oh, to have been a fly on the wall at the Constitutional Convention and absorbed some of that energy to inspire current ego-seismic age – of accountability.
