What you and most other Dem supporters always fail to grasp is that you can’t have any of that nice other stuff without a solid pro-business climate. You need that engine room to generate tax revenue and jobs. yes, some people get very rich, but these are the people that are the innovators and risk-takers that make life so comfortable for the rest of us.The Democrat Party has been hijacked these past few years by this leftist movement with all their political correctness, hatred of wealth and success, and this belief that you can somehow take from those who work hard and give it to those who do not. If the Democrats have any chance of survival, it needs to be a move back towards the center along the lines of Bill Clinton. The Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders brand is the reason why Democrats lost against a easily beatable Trump and also why they lost both House of Congress.
As Bill said, it’s the economy, stupid. It is not safe spaces, no gender neutral bathrooms and not climate change.
And before the first person comes back with a comment on how the economy is doing great, understand that the stock market is not the economy. Employment rates are masking the fact that most of these new jobs are low-paid service sector positions and that the middle class has been decimated. You might feel comfortable in your bubbles on New York and San Francisco, but in the real world, people are hurting bad.
