ANALYSIS: She wanted to beat Donald Trump with love. But Marianne Williamson's 2020 run is over
— something traditional politicians had failed to do — and outlasted democratic darlings like Kamala Harris, Beto O'Rourke and Bill DeBlasio.Horoscope apps are wildly popular, suddenly on-level with vitamins and yoga and face masks.America is having a bit of a moment, and it wouldn't be a stretch to say that in this country, the influence of a spiritual adviser and self-help guru is just as big and relevant as anything involved with the word"senator".
In her 38-year career before politics, she served as an adviser to Oprah Winfrey and officiated the last of Elizabeth Taylor's eight weddings. Seven of her 12 self-help books were New York Times best sellers, and even if you think you'd never be associated with a spiritual guru, you'd no doubt recognise a few quotes from them. Quotes like:
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.""If you think any of this wonkiness is going to deal with this dark psychic force of the collectivised hatred that this President is bringing up in this country, then I'm afraid that the Democrats are going to see some very dark days."
On a campaign stage crowded with career politicians and prepared remarks, she spoke to voters who felt that the country was experiencing a crisis of conscience of such seismic proportions that politics was beside the point.
