I am a democrat so I don't say this with malice. If the democrats don't go back to their original new deal platforms and pro labor platforms they will be in trouble and already are. The republicans are in the process of watering down Obamacare. It's no revelation that they will accomplish this. The insurance companies can't wait to collect premiums without paying claims. They can't wait to throw your children off of your policy.

The republicans will unfund Medicare to the point that it will be catastrophic insurance only. Then they will undermine Social Security by privatizing it like their corporate masters are instructing them to do. Remember that your boss matches every dollar that you pay into SS.

We will go back to the Gilded Age where unions were few and every one was paid like an immigrant.

You are correct - this is how the Dem's will win elections. Running on gays, trannies and brown skin won't win elections because white workers won't vote for that. But running on a working class platform would get the working white vote plus the gay, tranny and brown voters since they aren't going to vote Republican anyway.

Its pretty obvious and simple. Amazing the Dem leadership couldn't figure it out.

You mean that there's still a Democratic Party?

NextGen & Tom Steyer

Who's seen commercials on the TV calling for you to contact your senator to keep them from confirming Tillerson?

This is what the democratic party has become.

Subversive, and undermining our government process.

They can forget about getting their butts saved in 2020, 2024, etc... It will never happen.
Both parties are endangered. The unaffiliated voter is on the rise.

Oh, they'll be back, and the followers will have new hope, which will lead to mass dissatisfaction---AND--Then the R's will return to "save the day." More dissatisfaction follows-- AND--Well, any moron can see where this is going, and HAS been going since I first voted in the early sixties. Happy landings, chumps..

Blue Faith Progressivism is a church and Democrats joined their church. It runs religious programming on television, all day every day via MSNBC, CNN and other main stream outlets. The church leaders are in our educational system indoctrinating the young. The Blue Church controls the HR department, so even if you don't go to church, you have to act and speak like a loyal churchgoer in every way.

Trained since childhood to obey the pretty people on TV, some crying and screaming at the mer site of them. Meryl Streep and other Hollywood elite are panicking because their PR campaigns didn't work. Voters have rejected them. The global warming Blue Faith religion has already folded itself into the Trump hater cult.

All the PR, the preaching, the fake news, the political correctness, the concerts for the first time in decades didn't work.

Every 4 or 8 years, one side has a tantrum. It's the lefts turn now.
