re: #36 MsJ
Right now, we have nothing standing between us and demise but for democrats in congress. If they refuse to stand for us, I will not vote for them. We have nothing more to lose. They are all we have. If they don’t act,
fuckprimary em.
Fixed. Assuming anger against trump/the GOP goes up, how the hell will a “GOP-lite”, enabling Democrat get voters to the polls? They’ll want a fighter.
Brilliant piece on an issue I often tweet about—the Dems lack of a coherent, compelling economic vision. https://t.co/Mq7iq8Dhl3

It was a close election. Hillary Clinton won the popular vote handily and only lost the presidency by about 110,000 votes in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania. But Donald Trump’s victory exposed a problem that existed regardless of the Electoral College tally: Democrats do not have a coherent economic story that can appeal to people on the wrong side of the growing inequality divide. People who think their financial situation is worse than four years ago voted for Trump by an astounding 78-19 margin.
